Since we also have to deal with staying under the salary cap I don't necessarily think anyone is a horrible pick.

Great pick scud ! At least that's what ben will say since you made it ha ha.

Last season I was terribly criticized for taking Eddie Jones in the 5th round as ben instructed me that he never would have even been drafted lol !

maybe ben was just gaming you?

I thought about Eddie, but he doesn't fit my budget.

That probably makes it sound harsher than it was. Knowing Ben he probably was 100x more pleasant and objective about it.

Jones was drafted 3 out of the last 6 drafts at an average draft position of 90.33

Grant Hill

thanks for the post, van... to me, how someone feels about a draft pick, too early, too something else... blah blah blah... makes no difference to me. just happy to be able to add him to the squad. ; )

Direct quote from my evals last season where I “terribly criticize” you:

5. Eddie Jones - Solid role player and a cost effective wing option who fits in well with this team. I think you probably could have gotten him in the 6th round though.

Okay so I slightly exaggerated.

Haha it’s all good. You’re right, I don’t think Jones is a very great pick at any spot, but I certainly don’t see anything wrong with him either.

Larry Nance

that's a fine pick
