Nice deal for Kim, but both sides got what they wanted

[Shoalzie]

Paul would've been perfectly justified to hang onto that pick but Kyle seemed like the natural trade partner. If he's taking his time with a rebuild...getting multiple picks for the #1 is the right way to go.

[kimmer]

obvi no way i do this if i had 22 1 oa. this just makes sense

A good deal but in a draft like this which is likely ending up a crapshoot with hidden 1st round talent all over this draft i think id prefer the quantity over the quality. Theres not even really a consensus 1 OV IMO.

it’s 100% power or Clarke.

First everyone is saying how bad the draft is after the first handful of players, now you all prefer the later round selections over the top 5

You’re all hilarious lol

Anyways, like I said, happy with power and one of Clarke/Hughes/beniers while still having another 5 or 6 picks in the first 63 or so picks.

Ive never changed my opinion of this draft. I traded out all but my 1st because its gonna be such a crap shoot. Some GMs are gonna get windfalls late in the draft and others with early picks are gonna get some busts. I mean thats the usual risk in drafting but i feel its more pronounced with COVID being a major factor in player development and lack of scouting this year.

All the guys I’m personally interested in saw plenty of developmental time this year so I’m not too worried. I too think it’s going to be a crapshoot once we get out of the Top 5-10 which is why I’m OK trading the assets I did. I’ve also been big on power for a while and have wanted him since I drafted Byfield last year.

Seider>Power

He’s also got a couple years of development on him lol. He’s going to be a beauty. You’re lucky

[Loki]

Nice return for kimmer, going to be interesting to see how this pans out in a few years

[CasperX22]

In a normal draft year this is meh. In this draft though? Without a legitimate superstar caliber player in this draft it's pretty easy to trade down for a similar caliber player+a few scratch off tickets.
