Time to assess the 2019 draft!

Hope not, but we'll see.

The presence of Rhule makes everything harder.

I was one of the few that was pretty down on the 2021 draft. I felt like we passed up on good, starting quality players to get project guys.

It would be nice to be wrong but considering the Rhule talent evaluation level, I don't think I will be.

When your praise for a draft class includes Dennis Daley, then it's a bad draft.

Hurney hit on the first pick and whiffed on the rest. Kinda typical of him.

His only saving grace as a draft evaluator is that he generally did well to great with that first pick. From there it gets iffy to tragic. I do think the problem went beyond Hurney and into the depths of our entire scouting department. And that worries me, because we seem to be just as iffy now.

I am simply amazed at how many posters on this board always gave him credit for "nailing" the 1st rounder.

How many times did Hurney give away a 1st?

How many times has Hurney drafted in the 1st for the Panthers?

How many of those have been picks 17-32?

Of those, which ones were solid hits?

Hurney was bad at every single aspect of his job, other than keeping it.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
