2021 Draft Homer Official List

My wife is leaving Sunday night with the kids—for four days, not for good. I’m gonna deep dive this draft and give my Cy like rankings—I’ll try to do top 45.
 
RJ Nembhard - TCU
since no one is expecting anything out of him it won't be hard to outperform that type of expetations.
 
Haven't followed the draft a ton, but I'm a big Jared Butler fan. I do like him for some different reasons than HH, however. I have a different view on potential than the norm. If you go through previous drafts and look at the guys who exceeded their draft position, you'll find a lot of guys who were cast as role players for one reason or another (size, age, athleticism, ect).

I think Butler could be one of those guys. I love the smoothness of his game and ability to score/playmake in different situations. He's also a tough defender with a great deal of strength. I can more easily see him being an all star than a lot of the typical "high potential" run and jump athletes.

The off court stuff is also super promising. He will reach his ceiling if his health allows.

We can't move up and it is illogical to give a win now piece like JC or Bojan to get him but man I'd be really tempted to slide up and the draft and get him if we were thinking more long term.
 
I do have just a touch of hope that Butler falls to #30 and we are smart enough to keep the pick and take him. Last year several mocks had Terry, Bane, McDaniels likely gone before we pick. Hopefully we get a small miracle or are able to move up a couple spots with just cash considerations... like maybe with Denver or Houston.

Plus he’s a Baylor kid. Maybe we can move Favors and 30 to move up? Doubtful but maybe…maybe?
