For all of you draft experts, name your top 5 players that you think have a realistic shot at being there when we pick at 24.  Also name your one "won't be there guy" that you think and hope might fall on draft night to us.  Try to pick someone who at least has a small chance of falling.

Top 5

Guice, Hurst, Jackson, Green, Hernandez

Might fall:  Davenport

No clue. There's a handful of players I'd love to have that I'm pretty sure will be gone (Bradley Chubb, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Detain James, etc) but at 24 there will likely be a couple of players go that we thought would be there and maybe we'll get lucky and have a couple of guys there who we thought would be gone. Prior to the combine I thought Josh Jackson was a slam dunk top 15 pick but after looking really raw in on-field drills I think there's a decent chance he's there. If he is I hope we don't even hesitate. Draft him.

As am I, unfortunately I think he will be the first corner taken. 

Eh. Josh Jackson had a "disappointing combine" so he may just be where we're around.

Denzel Ward's who I expect to be one of the first off the board. He's got all the measurables for it too. I can see Josh Jackson falling more so than not, and I'd love him.

Unless we trade up about 10 picks, there's not a chance we land him. 23 teams won't pass.

Ronnie Harrison.  The Falcons caught flak after “reaching” for Neal but are damned glad they did now.  Harrison is a beast and may not make it past the Steelers at 28, but will be there at 24.  Take him.

I like Harrison, but I'd honestly rather have Reid. He's just the harder type of safety to find and the exact type of safety that we need. Those sideline to sideline center fielder deep cover guys are hard to find. Not sure I'd spend a 1st rounder on an in the box thumper like Harrison. Harrison is avoiding running and doing agility drills like the plague. He's slow and stiff and he's smart enough to know it. That doesn't mean he can't be a very good NFL player (Kam Chancellor) but it does mean he's not the type of player that you take in the 1st round and maybe not even the 2nd.

      Hornets Acquire Collin Sexton

      Been here since the Coliseum days. Hornets were the first pro team I ever rooted for. If they're ever going to get out of the gutter they have to establish a culture. They are trying to do that. I have no idea if it will be successful but it's a start.

      I don’t think I'd go that far but there is definitely legitimate reason to ask how much he actually values winning and being great as a basketball player. He is very easily distracted with off the court stuff. This has been a public criticism of people like LeBron James with some of the newer generations of "stars". And it is 1000% valid and needed to be said. All I can say is I hope this is the year. If it is it will be apparent fairly early on. But I get the sense if the same themes continue as the upcoming season progresses the FO could look to move him before the trade deadline. It would suck for a multitude of reasons and I don't want to see it happen but if it did it would be on LaMelo and LaMelo alone because they've given him the keys and are finally putting pieces around him. If he wants to be a great basketball player and win he will be here and do what is necessary for the team to be successful. If not well....
