why did you trade the rights to this guy?

Because we have a low class organization that the owner is trying to run on the cheap.

I kind of like Malcolm Lee and cash from a GM's standpoint.

Kahn liked Lee in the first round and knew he would drop to the second. He figured he could get cash in the process of trading down to target the player he wanted all along.

Option 1)
He traded down after those picks were made. Lee was still on the board, and he was going in small margins while knowing what other teams wanted and would likely pick.

Option 2)
He got lucky and collected a bunch of assets (not just cash, there's picks there too) along the way.


If you're going to say it's Kahn's fault when a good prospect busts...just saying.

pretty sure i saw in an interview with kahn that he was going to trade the lee pick aswell but was told by scouts/others that we should select lee and keep him and thats what he did.

Cheaped out by trading a guy they wouldn't have to pay for 3-4 years? Interesting theory.
