I was referring to ATL and cgrand in this thread as smart people, but I agree that Demps draft sample size is small.
I assume you're referring specifically to the Pels and not in general. That may be true short term for the Pels, but getting 3 or 4 years of production above contract value is worthwhile endeavor. It's not a necessity, but it is something I would be interested in this year and beyond as a team runner.
Year by year rookie salary increases are set until 2021 and will not match the cap spike increase. Of course that might change with a CBA renegotiation.
ETA: of course, you can find that same type of value outside the draft. The aforementioned Tucker, Beverly, and Pondexter are 3 guys who bring great value to their teams. Tucker and Beverly were not drafted by their current teams and were out of the NBA before finding a niche.

the savings due to rookie scale remaining fixed, cap jumping is relatively small. There is little advantage to be taken.

The sample size is definitely small, and I'm not saying we know he's bad, but he hasn't shown he's any good. The other types of moves he's made we saw some good after the same number of moves.

When a rookie scale contract benefits the team under the current CBA, the differential benefit were the cap higher is only a very slight improvement in comparison to the direct benefit due to the indentured servitude itself.
Generally, not just for the Pels, and this is less true for the few top picks that command high salary.
