No way. Thats the gamble of selecting rookies! You draft one, let them sit on your bench all season, and use one of your keeper spots to hold on hope that the next year might be the one for him. Thats the gamble. The risk of drafting a new player over someone in the twilight of their career. If the rookie pans out, you are set for years to come.

Perhaps, but my justification was also because it's a dynasty league and Holmes is 27 and will contribute now and likely later..Whiteside is 31, no team wants him since he got a 1 year minimum. I don't think teams like playing him much because he just chases blocks. He does put up good #s for fantasy when he's playing, but I think coaches don't like playing him a lot if they can help it due to his lack of offense, laziness on team defense, etc.
Definitely agree with this logic and that is why I was waffling so much. His age was a plus. The real problem is I did not see how I could keep Holmes on my team next year as it would have been difficult for him to break into my top 7. I felt I needed a quality starter to let Ball develop or I would be driving the tank one more year. I really hope I can move up in the rankings this year just a wee bit. A healthy Zion and Curry will help and hoping for quality minutes from MPJ and Herro.
Yeah, it's hard to stash too many young guys, especially rookies, and your team doesn't have a lot of room to do much, and playing them doesn't help. Last year I took Culver, Reddish and Goga in the draft and none were any good, and I just couldn't justify keeping anyone...I barely kept Reddish over a couple other guys...but even he is on a deep team and will have to emerge as the best between him, Huerter and Hunter to turn into a worthy keeper.
. Fortunately, I picked up Bogi off the waiver wire last season.

Feel good, that's a solid pick. He was my guy if Bojan was snagged before me.wheezy wrote:Hmmm.... dunno how I feel about this but I'll take Norman Powell.

If I can get 60ish games from him this is a steal.

Does that have the entire draft order including all traded picks?
Yes. Traded picks are painted in colors.bwgood77 wrote:Golanator wrote:I updated the draft tab with all the latest picks. I also updated my team.
