4. Watchamacallit
5. Cherry Sours
6. Smarties
7. Peanut M&M's

Smarties will go undrafted. Wait to get them as a Undrafted Free Agent.

My only problem with Jolly Ranchers is that sometimes they can get a little rough around the edges when you crunch into them. That and the fact that you buy a bag for your favorite flavor (say Orange or Fruit Punch) and come away with only two or three in the bag... That's a poor investment, and you'll likely be left with sub-par returns...

Exactly... Why miss out on a first round tarty talent when there will be chocolate there in later rounds?

As you can see on my top 10, I really only see 3 chocolates in the top ten, and one is already off the board.

Common sense GMs strike now for the sweet, tangy, tarty goodness...

I have heard rumors that Starbursts are also high up on some boards, but they are just outside my top 10.

I have all taffy based candies as mid round prospects. In modern candy offenses, the role of candies that stick to teeth excessively are seeing significantly reduced roles under the new CBA. (Candy biting agreement)

Sweet tarts are high on your board @Bronn hope it is the chewy kind.

the original sweet tart will also go unstaffed with Smarties

They messed the flavors up when they added green and more yellow, but old school Sweet Tarts (the hard ones) will always be HOF for me.

Smarties just never lets you down, unless you get some of those dollar store ones that have been repackaged.

Pick 2 - The original Plan M&M's - So versatile this candy is. Trips, movies, or just at home. Individual morsels that melt in your mouth, not in your hand. Pure genius. 

Original Plain M&Ms are the prototypical QB. Nothing flashy, but solid. My taste is for a little more flash in my M&Ms with Peanut. Still, solid choice. No complaints here.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
