A good chance at chaos?

i mean outside of hunter, is there anyone in this draft that teams are going nuts over? 

most other years would Ward have been the top pick? probably not. 

i think that there will be some really good starters in the first round this year, but i don't know that anyone is looking at this class going "all pro player, right there"

that's probably the root of some of it. people looking to get into the 1st round are probably the most desperate of the desperate grasping at straw instead of studs hoping that they can get a position of need filled. i mean that's usually the case, but i think usually it would have been harder to try and trade into the top ten. just doesn't feel like this draft has much to offer at the top of it. like most of the top 10 would have been middle to late first rounders other years. 

it's just not an exciting class. i'm probably looking at it wrong, but that's just what my really uninterested and uneducated eyes are seeing.

It's Hunter and Carter then a drop off to a second tier of players.

I don't think Jeanty is a 2nd tier player.  He just happens to be RB in the year 2025. 

and I'm going to go out on a semi limb.....I think Travis Hunter is going to disappoint in the NFL.   Given the hype.  Solid player.  But I think he is going to be over drafted off this illusion he can play 2 spots in the NFL.  I think he plays one and isn't dominate.

It's a great year to be a smart team. With all the perennially dumb teams sitting in the top 10 wanting to trade down there will probably be a perennially smart team identify a guy who may not stand out from the pack from a pure talent perspective but who does stand out from the pack in terms of fitting what they're looking for at that position of need and they'll jump up the draft board at a bargain to get him.

It's always a great year to be a smart team - that's why they keep winning and we keep floundering in the basement of the NFL.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
