re: SI’s latest mock, based on rumors and buzz, has Shaedon Sharpe falling to us at 8.

I know this could look super dumb in a couple of years if he turns into a superstar, but for us...I would pass. See if someone wants him enough to move up and gives great value, or just take someone else.

Honestly I just hope Portland decides to take him or moves that pick and someone does.

A team like us can take some risks, but I feel like that is way too big of a risk.

I think we are in the perfect position to take a risk. This pick is basically like playing with house money. It all depends on how the organization feels he fits on the team and whether he is a threat to the culture they are building. If he is not, he may be worth taking a chance on.
