Lamelo Ball wins ROTY?

Because Jordan hasn’t shown that he can make smart decisions consistently. Getting Lamelo was pure luck by jumping into the top 3 of the draft. We could go as far back as 2005 and see who this franchise passed up on in the draft. But, let’s just go to 2017 and check. Jordan passed on Donovan Mitchell, Michael Porter Jr, and Tyler Herro. Imagine if we had all those 3 guys on this team right now. GSW nailed the drafts in 3 out of 4 straight years to create that dynasty and luring Durant to come there. That’s why Curry never left. Also, Curry’s career didn’t start out great like Melo. It took him couple years to finally put it all together and become the Curry we all know today. GSW might be a small market but being in San Francisco is a lot different than in CLT. 

Wrong. Jordan hired Mitch who began to turn it around BEFORE LaMelo. It's a good situation because the groundwork was laid beforehand. The Hornets aren't all of a sudden the squad because of a lucky #3. 

Mitch will continue until you eat crow. Center, Center, Center.

    • They are obviously waiting on for someone o the Seahawks or Patriots staff.  If they wanted Evero, it would be a done deal already. The only silver lining is if the guy they are waiting for turns them down.  In that instance I do think Evero is their backup plan.
    • Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.  
    • 1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.
