What is it that you think is missing with Washington? Obviously on two different pages

I like PJ's game, I think he's an NBA player, and in fact I bumped him up in this latest board. I just feel like 20's is his sort of range. He could beat out a few of the guys listed above him, but then again, I also feel like I could have THT and some of the other guys below PJ higher as well.

I just can't see grant ever translating

^ Grant will be an immediate impact player that has a similar career trajectory as Thad Young with the potential offensively to be better.

Justwar · Post #86 » by **Justwar** » Tue Mar 5, 2019 9:17 pm

Three or four inches smaller, and if you saw college days, Thad was much more athletic

I wasn't suggesting that's his NBA comp. I think he'll have the same level of impact

Just noticed I skipped a # (#17) but you get the idea. I'll fix it up for the next one. Also Kabengele is a tentative entry, subject to change, was going to put him a bit higher initially actually, but I'll be conservative and watch more. Same with Pickett.

looks good...some strong PFs in that 20-24 range.

Yeah it's starting to round out a bit now. Think the 2nd round's probably subject to the most change, hard to rank some of those guys (though happy with some adjustments/additions I made there in this one), plus there's a bunch of guys I either haven't seen enough of and probably deserve a spot somewhere in the 2nd, or in some cases guys I have just outside the top 60 (Queta, T.Davis, X.Johnson, Claxton, Oni, Matthews, Zoosman, Okeke, Agbaji, Hagans, Obiesie, and more).

That glut of PF's in the 20's is interesting. Very tough to separate those guys.

I like those picks from 19-24. If that's how the draft ends up, I want my team to have picks there - moreso than in the 13-16 range.

You could honestly swap those 2 groups and I don't think anyone would really blink at it - pretty even tier of prospects there.

I like Windler been mentioned as well as Jalen L out of prep school.

Your really high on Porter Jr. and Hunter? What the reasoning behind it? I see you have THT and Kabengele in your 1st round which I haven't seen much of but both players are guys I really like in 2020 with guys like Claxton. What's the reason for them being 1st rounders in 2019?

It feels a bit uncomfortable to have Hunter at 4, but I really rate him, and think he can extend somewhat beyond 'role player', but ultimately his position is more down to the guys below him underwhelming.

KPJ is a guy I would actually have top 10 on talent, it's just all the attitude/season issue stuff that has dropped him for me. Heck, on talent alone, I would say he's a top 5 guy, maybe even top 3 (!). So that natural talent is keeping him in the end of the lottery despite the troublesome season for me.

I've been pretty generous on the board regarding players staying in, haven't really accounted for my opinion on whether guys are returning or not, and if someone's absent (Claxton being an example), it's generally because I haven't seen enough to rank them yet. Wouldn't be surprised to see one or both of THT/Kab return to college, but if they're in this draft I think they're definite 1st's. I would point out that I think I would have Kab higher if I re-did this board today. Ditto Coby White and Brandon Clarke.

clyde21 · Post #100 » by **clyde21** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 4:05 pm

KPJ is for sure a top 10 or 12 guy, especially if he checks it in interviews. i probably have him at #10 right now.
