Tolzman on Draft 

Post#1 » by StopitLeo » Tue Jun 24, 2025 1:23 pm

I have no doubt that these reporters mine RealGM for questions. YouTube embedding never works for me.

You have to use the proper link format by going to the YouTube link and copying that.

I see. Thanks for explaining that.

Anyway, regarding the video I don't think we learned much new information but I like how Tolzman answers draft questions.

Can't believe another team hasn't snapped up Tolzman as a GM or something. Smart, youngish guy responsible for a lot of the Raps drafting record.

Orlando snatched Jeff Weltman in 2017 who was also considered to be a major of our draft success.

I'm sure Tolzman will get a gig somewhere in the future.

Also possible if Masai isn't resigned, Bobby moves up and Tolzman takes on a bigger role.

Yeah, it's an interesting video, for sure.

Tolzman dropped some hints within his answers: position is of no concern as we will draft the best player available; however, a defensive wing with excellent switchability was hinted at (hopefully Carter Bryant ).

he said alot of things. my main takeaway is that the pick will be their BPA and will have to play defense.

Agreed, he didnt say much, even in terms of positional/switchability being a need, he just stressed that in order to get in Darkos rotation he will have to play defense, and as always they will choose BPA. They have a plan for guys sliding down the draft and make contingencies in case.
