Trade value of Koufos and Ellington 

Post#1 » by panthermark » Mon Aug 23, 2010 4:53 pm

Hi Guys,
Was scrolling through your 15 man rotation thread and was wondering what you consider the "trade" value of Waynt and Kosta (I noticed that they were at the end...or not even on the roster)?

Thanks

I think Koufos would be anything similar to a second round pick probably pretty low though.

Ellington on the other hand I have really no clue cause he can shoot lights out but like you said he is not on the top of the rotation. I think we will test him out at point guard this year though

I would think anything from late firsts to second rounders. Ellington is a little more valuable to us, and I'd like to see how he works out in the new system. I consider both guys as slightly positively valued trade filler, but I am not sure any team would actively try to get them from us.

What new system is this you speak of?

Filler

If the guys remain on the team, they'll see games where they are DNP-CD's now.

Value is low ... neither player has proven anything. I agree they are basically "filler" material for any significant moves.

On the flip-side, these guys (Ellington) may be smart enough to stay around and find a role on a winning team 2-3 years up the road.

The system where we have actually have some athletic shooters (and need for them) and are running more extensively. I compare it to our former system of letting Flynn or Jefferson run out the clock before taking some ridiculous shot.
