Ya I think Dell has found a exploit here. Basically if he has a 1st round grade on a guy and he falls to the 2nd round, he takes them.

2nd round contracts are more favorable and have less expectations. Also guys in that range pan out pretty similar to guys drafted 30-35. You could argue that a high 2nd round pick is more valuable than any pick between 15-30.

Also there was a fair amount of expectation that Frank Jackson would go at 21 to OKC. So it's fair to say more than 1 gm had a 1st round grade on Frank Jackson.

It's a good strategy. Take a 1st round guy in the 2nd round. Seems to have panned out with Diallo.

it's just one draft site, but draftexpress (the best one) never at any point had him going in the first round...they always had him in the 30's.

not saying he's not talented but I think "1st round talent in the second round" is stretching it
