Dave and Ron Funchess Presser


Recommended Posts

I think Rivera just tipped our hand that Cotchery is gone. He said KB, Funchess, Olsen, Dicksen, Ginn, and Brown create match-up nightmares. Gettleman had to chime in with 'don't discount Cotchery."

Sounds like Smith, Preston, and Golden were right there on our board by the presser as well. 

 

Yep. He said we had 5 guys we wanted, and they started dropping like flies so they felt they had to move up or they would have no one to pick. Considering we moved up right after Devin Smith was picked, I think he was a target.

Jeremy can you weigh in on what you think they had Strong rated at? If Funchess was a first round guy I'm wondering what they had Strong at considering he didn't go until 70. Was the difference between Funchess and Strong worth giving up our 3rd? Maybe they're seeing something I'm not.

The fact that we could have had Strong, the far superior WR in my opinion, without giving up picks to move up is the twist of the dagger.

    • Ehlers needs to sit. Definitely can't lose him to a meaningless game.
    • Bet didn't hit because the referee missed 3 clear corner kicks. I had a 5k parlay that would have been alive tomorrow if he didn't miss those calls as well. Super annoying 
    • I don't think it's at all a given that we have players who are good at driving the basket. I guess that depends on your definition. Bridges is 43rd in attempts in the paint Miller is 64th and LaMelo is 66th. We all love to see the lob threat but it's largely miniscule at this point in time. There's gotta be a solution here if LaMelo is to be the centerpiece because this is simply not sustainable if we want to continue to ascend. If he can't drive to the basket then that means we need to add another player to the core who consistently can. That would require moving someone like Miles Bridges. And that's certainly not going to be popular with LaMelo but something has to give here for what we are investing and we need to maximize guys like Miller and Knueppel on rookie deals while we still can. The three chucking is fine when it's working where the issue comes into play is there are no adjustments when it isn't and we just go into a shell and begin to look like the Hornets of yesteryear. That's why the offensive evolution of all involved is critical to us taking the next step. Getting to the play in is nice but we should have our sights set much higher. Right now though they need to take care of business against the Heat. All I ask is that they at least beat those fools. I cannot stand the Heat.
