Welcome to Colton's Mock Draft Compilation, v. 11.0. Here are who the mock drafts are listing as the "best players". See below for details. It should give a pretty good idea of who will be available when the Jazz pick.

On the first round bubble: Lucas Noquiera, Justin Harper, Charles Jenkins, JaJuan Johnson, Trey Thompkins


Ranking details: I used the following mock drafts as "voters" for the best players. That is, I assumed they ranked the players in the order that they felt like the players deserved to be drafted. (This is an incorrect assumption, because some mock drafts account for perceived team need, but it should be close.) Then I used the "instant run-off voting" algorithm in a program I wrote to deduce who deserved to be ranked in the top spot, then in the second spot, then in the third spot, and so forth. See here for details on that algorithm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting

Changes from v 10.0: I added a bunch of new mock drafts (~7 or 8). In total there are FOURTEEN mock drafts which are new and/or have been updated since the last version of my compilation.

I am really not a fan of Jan. A long athletic wing who cannot shoot just isn't very successful in the NBA anymore. It's all about loading up your team with shooters and bombing away from deep.

Fredette keeps slipping and slipping on the board.

Note: I just edited the original post, to give *all previous rankings*, instead of just the most recent previous ranking. I think I'll continue to include that info from now on.

 

[colton]

Fredette keeps slipping and slipping on the board.

What are you talking about? He's been rock steady at #16... five compilations in a row, now.

 

[colton]

3 Brandon Knight (6-6-6-6-6-4-3-4-3-3)

I mentioned this in an earlier post, but here's the evidence. The change from 6 to 4 (and now 3) happened the day the Jazz got the #3 pick. So apparently a whole bunch of mock drafts simply think the Jazz will take the player they WOULD have taken at #6, at #3 instead. I don't get it.

 

[NCJazz]

What are you talking about? He's been rock steady at #16... five compilations in a row, now.

See smiley face. In reference to a previous poster who said this.

 

[colton]

Ah...I thought the smilie was to indicate that you were happy with the so-called "slip".

 

[NCJazz]

Ah...I thought the smilie was to indicate that you were happy with the so-called "slip".

If we pick Kanter at 3, think Jimmer would make a good pick at 12.

 

[calijazz]

I'm starting to lean toward Kanter as my preference over Knight. As much as I like both of them, the Millsap/Jefferson combo just isn't going to work defensively in the long run. Their pick-and-roll D is pretty horrendous. It opens up more options at the #12 pick too...

 

[The-Joker]

If we pick Kanter at 3, think Jimmer would make a good pick at 12.

I'm pretty sure this is the most cliche'd idea on Jazzfanz. Right ahead of "Shut the **** up Sloanfeld"

 

[Jazz Spazz]

I'm pretty sure this is the most cliche'd idea on Jazzfanz. Right ahead of "Shut the **** up Sloanfeld"

And those two are right behind the " I think we should take Knight @ 3" idea.
