is this years draft class supposed to be good? I was under the impression that it's not looking that great.
I'd rather build through FA, but i guess when your a small market that isn't that attractive, you kind of need the draft to build. Really need a top 5 pick for the rebuild purpose, and we might be closer to the 10 spot if we stay healthy this year.
I remember some stat showing the chances of a guy drafted outside the top 10 panning out to be a good player. If was basically saying that a guy drafted 12th has about the same chances of being a good player as a guy getting drafted in the 2nd round.
I think that's why you see so many fringe teams trading away first round picks. the pick still has a chance to be the #1 but really has little chance of the player turning out to be a contributor soon if it's in that 15th pick range.

worst in the past couple of years. But that doesnt mean that a team couldnt strike gold and get a great player somewhere outside of the first 3-5 picks
