Upshaw and Jefferson are pretty much the only players left I know anything about. Went with Upshaw for his Upshide.

He'll be my 31st pick. He's such a red flag I wouldn't want to 1st round guarantee his contract.

went with Rondae, very similar to MKG and isn't a headcase like Upshaw.

You think his issues will make him like Royce White 2.0? 1st rounders only have two year guarantees, and I'm pretty much sure Upshaw would spend the first year stashed in the D-League anyway.

Stash was the right choice of word.

You also have to decide whether to guarantee Year 3 after Year 1, unguaranteed altogether is much safer when dealing with guys like him.

More Sean Williams 2.0 than Royce White 2.0

But if he pans out, gets his head straight and away from the blow he could be better than a DeAndre second round type pick.

Agreed. Nobody is taking that dude in the 1st round.
