2011 draft.....

Bismarck is all over everyone's mock draft lists.
He is a mid second round pick on some.
Not sure he's worth the #12 pick.
Maybe late first or early second if Jazz got another pick somehow.
 
Looks like he'd play a Ben Wallace role. Yeah, a couple inches short, but makes up for it with timing, long arms, and being just plain fierce.
 
Perry Jones for 6 and this dude at 12. Jazz need to go for potential. If those 2 are available you have to take them, maybe trade down at 12 if they think he will go later on and get an extra first rounder and get a PG/SG or a shooter like Honeycutt

Going for potential never seems to work. Better to go with players that you know can just play.
 
-Went for potential in D-Will and that paid off. He wasn't the best guard for Illinois during that whole season
-Went for potential in Almond and Koufus but failed
-Went for potential in Maynor, would have been amazing if he wasnt traded
-Went for potential in Hayward and have had mixed results but most likely a good potential pick
-Tried to get favors/Cousins in draft and would have been potential picks

They have gone for potential more recently but Perry Jones has potential to be an all star with all the tools he has. Same with Kanter.

I dont see how Almond and Maynor where "potential" picks. One was a proven shooter, its obvious he wasnt going to be great, Utah just wanted him as a player who could hit outside shots. Maynor definitely has ZERO potential in terms of being anything better than a backup and we knew that when we took him.
