What are your solid Late round Picks? 

Post#1 » by CableKC » Thu Oct 18, 2012 6:38 pm

I'm doing my pre-draft homework for my 12 Team H2H league and I wanted to see if you have any suggestions for any decent but often forgotten Players that often fall to the last 12th to 13th rounds.

I'd leave it up to you as to what criteria that you think should be included. For me, I look for Players will definitely get some key rotational minutes on a regular basis along with Players that would get a boost if a key Player ahead of them in the rotation is injury prone.

I figure that it would be good to compile a list of "late round" picks that you often see available in your Mock or Live Drafts that should be considered.

Here's my list of late round Players that I may consider -

PGs - Jarrett Jack, Kirk Hinrich, Jason Kidd, Ramon Sessions, Andre Miller, DJ Augustin,
SGs/SFs - Jared Dudley, JJ Reddick, BRush, Tayshaun Prince, Anthony Morrow, Carlos Delfino, Mike Dunleavy, Brandon Roy
PF - BJ Mullens, Shawn Marion, Carl Landry
C - JJ Hickson, Spencer Hawes

I know that this list could be very broad....ranging from "very deep sleepers" to "forgotten role Players that get solid minutes" but I assume that there are Players that you often look for when you are trying to fill out your roster as the draft is winding down.

Brandon Rush (high efficiency, gets blocks as a guard), G Vasquez, Omar Asik

Jose Calderon, Chris Kaman (not really late but still good pickups)

I took a flyer on Steve Novak because I felt all my other categories were filled out well. In just 18mpg he averaged 2.5 3pt last year.

D. Collison/B. Beal/D. Waiters/J. Valunciunas/T. Thompson/T. Young/N. Young/B. Roy/J. Dudley/B. Rush/D. Favors/A. Brooks/W. Chandler/T. Booker/J. Green/J. Hickson/E. Kanter/A. Burcs/K. Leonard/C. Landry

Those are the players i would target as solid late round picks, there's always a possibilty somebody falls, but still
