Yeah top 6 aren’t great but after that it’s just as good as any past drafts in my eyes.

Even the top 6 looks pretty rock solid when it comes to potential elite role players. It's not a star draft but there are so many guys that project as elite starting role players and solid bench role players.
 
If we can't trade up for Sheppard or Castle, just staying at 10 would be best. If Walter, Holland and Salaun move up top 9 someone great will fall to us eventually.
 
Based on history, this draft will produce at least 2 or 3 All-Stars. Who among the kids this year has the best likelihood to become an All-Star? For me it’s Reed Sheppard. He is the only one in the draft who has numbers to back him up to be a special player down the road. If I’m Danny, I’ll be aggressive and go after him. We have players who won’t be part of the future and some draft capital that will probably be low picks (low odds to become All-Stars). I wouldn't be afraid of using it. There is always a risk things will not work out the way you thought, but in this case I think this risk is well worth taking. Now, if Danny likes someone else more, go ahead and do the same with that player.

I definitely looked at this... I do wonder if this is the draft that breaks the trend. Between the league getting deeper and AS slots staying the same... I think there may not be a guy who is an AS in this draft. Might be some that are AS quality though. Honestly... I just don't know... Sarr maybe?

I would be shocked if Sheppard is ever an all star
 
Williams has the best finishing numbers yet he is super skinny. I think he gets better when his body fills out and he could be an all-star or all-star quality. He defends and does all the things. The motor seems off but when you work with sports psychologist that could also change.
