    Pretty neat way to look at draft ranges. So if I'm reading that right potential first round fallers could be Swain, Cenac or Steinbach. I think we could use all three, if that ends up being the case.

    Interestingly, Richmond seems has a narrower range right about where we'll pick. I'd hate to see him go to San Antonio! And Thomas is right behind him there in the list.

    I'd gladly pick up Lendeborg if he drops but I think he'll go lottery along with Mara and Morez Johnson. I see a lot of john collins when I watch Lendeborg play, definitely can play up and down a position.

    I’d actually be disappointed if they drafted someone because it would probably mean they couldn’t improve through a trade

    i think this year's draft is still deep enough that i'd be happy making the pick. each of the last times we had 1sts, i wanted to trade them (and i think so did the FO).

    the other issue is that it's possible certain dominos won't have fallen on draft day. like--are we operating over or under the cap? does the draft impact that or (more likely) vice versa? what do we need to know prior to that?
