Not so much. Cousins is the BPA and I think we increase our chances of getting Wesley Johnson in a trade with Sacramento by drafting and keeping Cousins at #4. There isn't really any player from Detroit that I think really fits here, so the pick would definitely have to go (either directly to us or to Sacramento in a 3 way trade).
I guess there's many reasons why. The younger, cheaper, center thing is just part of it. Love and Jefferson can't coexist, we desperately need BPA, and we're still rebuilding (next year will be the last year I promise),
