Following potential 2013 draftees

Weight and strength are one of the last things you worry about in a PG. Certainly relative to the rest of the positions, you worry about that issue the least.

Because I cannot see any of the PG's turning into even solid NBA players. The Jazz don't need a rookie to sit on the bench, suck, and then be out of the league. That doesn't fill a need. But hell, I could be completely wrong and 1 or more could turn out to be solid. I doubt it though.

I'm not saying that Burke, MCW, McCollum, or Schroder are sure-fire all-stars, but I think most of them will make it to a second-contract (notwithstanding 'acts of god').
 
NBA player profiles are rarely updated after a player enters the league.

All I'm saying is that it's a weakness. Paul, Parker, Iverson, those guys make up for it with elite quickness. Schroeder is fast, but he's not quick like those guys. All I'm saying is that I'd like to see him bulk up a little, obviously he's young and he should be able to, but if you don't have his size as a weakness right now, then you're kidding yourself.

Yes, it is a weakness but not enough to completely dismiss him.

Even "needs" are relative. I fail to see how having a third big (especially when you can only play two at a time) is as more important as having a single point guard (that might be still on the team in five years, or at this stage, ANY AT ALL). That's not even taking into consideration that the Jazz have Jeremy Evans and stop gaps that come off the bench are endless in their supply.

I would take Austin and Olynk over Schroeder. Yeah, PG is more of a need, but a 3rd big who can shoot is a nice luxury. Millsap was a 3rd big who backed up two All-Star bigs, but he was still a huge key to the Jazz's success back in the day.

I probably would too, but where do you have Giannis vis a vis Olynyk and Austin?

I have:

McCollum
Austin
Olynyk
Schroeder
