Wall, Turner, Cousins, Favors, Monroe, and Johnson are all gone, who do we collectively value next?

I'm going with Aldrich. He's kind of mechanical but I think he could have a solid Brad Miller type career.

I went with the anti-W_Hamilton pick and selected the slow, unathletic, American white guy.

Cole Aldrich is a lump of a guy who is a solid defender and has a pretty nice offensive game.

Not sure how long TC will be here, Nazzy is on his last legs and Gana is crap.

We need a 7 footer for the future.

Is "lump of a guy" a good thing?

I'd say yes.

I like my 7 footers lumpy. Makes them harder to move off the block.

Going with Cole Aldrich. Not a star, but has the potential to be a very solid big man in the middle.

Draft express wasn't working earlier, so I'm the guy that selected Davis after watching some video. It came down to the top 3 guys in the poll for me. I liked Davis more than Aminu because of his additional size and thought the potential of those two outweighed the proposed solid play of Aldrich.
