| A few players that should move up in the next draft and could benefit from a change in scenery: Haney, Hahl, Brantley, Ron, Wilkes, Morton, Tolleson, Reggie and Wheeler.
A few who's stocks are crashing: Williams, Browning, Montaneri, and Kenny.
Thoughts?

| D. Williams stock is not dropping. He wasn't used properly and not on the right team. I agree with the players you listed with the stock rising.

| Fair point Sweat Sack. Hard to argue his defensive efforts this season though. Perhaps he would hustle back a little more on a different team or are you implying the team needs to just rely on him for offense and play a 2-2 zone?

| Schweat is basically saying the former of your statement. Had he been on a team that motivated him (or lifted him up) he would have likely hustled more on D. He still wouldn't be a good defender, but he would have been better than had he was this season. Also, if a captain picks up D Williams, they need to run the offense through him. He's a natural born scorer, that's what he knows and that's what he does. When you frustrate that ability of his by either trying to be the scorrer of the team, not moving the ball around, not moving when you don't have the ball and yelling at him when he doesn't make shots - then you're not using him to his strengths. If you pick up D Williams, use him properly, he needs to be the center of the offense.

| Who would you rather take in the draft: D Williams or Reggie? Who are the top 5 to go in the draft next year?

| Reggie and Dave are both fantastic players who have ridden my coattails to championships. I would choose whoever weighs less on draft night. Or maybe whoever is the first to get under 250.

| This is not necessarily a reflection of who I think should get picked, but more of a reflection of how the captains will pick. The order will probably depend on which captain is where.
#1, White Curry #2, Zack #3, Scott Rogers - aka Hollandaise Sauce #4, Davis #5, Brooks
Other considerations
Reggie, Kenny, JP, Cliff, Heagle

| For your mocking pleasure, the draft order is as follows:
1. Kocher 2. Pick 3. Tom 4. Fink 5. Hunt 6. Maggs 7. Raz

| If Scott Rogers is playing next season, he should be the #1 pick. Sorry White Curry...and no need to put down your doughut to write back (or maybe you can just hold it in your mouth to free up a hand).

| I am currently eating a Nature Valley Chocolate Pretzel Nut Bar. Scott is a good player who should certainly receive some consideration (if he is playing). But ultimately, not even his washboard ab selfies are enough to match my unlimited range and precision dime drops.
I think Kocher got to play with Scott, so for lack of reference in playing with me, he likely would take Scott at #1. Then, Pick likely will take JP to give the 4-peat a try. At #3, I would not be surprised if Vilanti wants to see if he can make a jump shot again by receiving passes with me, but he will probably take Zack as he is fresh off a great season. If that is J Fink, he will probably turn the clock back 5 years in hopes he can rekindle some magic and choose Brooks. That leaves Chris Hunt exactly where he wants to be. The only two championships he has ever won in his life are with me. White Curry to the Chumps for their first championship.

| You had me convinced up until the correlation between Chumps and a championship. That's more unlikely than Raz averaging 10 pts a game next season.

| To start at the top, David has never played Defense! Never will but that isn't why you draft him...and you cant match him up with four defensive guys because there aren't that many in the league! Could you imagine if Pick and Zack play together? Don't think they will because the games are too similar. I will be waiting in the 5th round to see whos bench I can come off of!!

| Completely agree with Jason on D Williams. OK, so realistically where does Jed fit in here? I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he has the same game he had 2 years and 30lbs ago.

| Hard to really predict anything until we know who are the newcomers next season. Guys like Scott, Hugh, and Jed could change the first round or two big time.

| With my same MVP game from 2 years ago and 30 lbs ago, I am a clear #1 pick. Scott and Reggie would want no piece of me. The question is, who will I be by August? What I can tell you is that no one will be training harder than me during that time to get my game right. Even my shadow is a 1st round pick.

| Jed is a first round pick - will probably go late. Brantley is a mid #2 draft pick. D Williams is a high #2 pick if not low #1 pick.
