I like him, too. I do think there is some question about his role. FS or SS? If he's a chess piece/versatile guy you want to move all over the place, and he kind of is, then you still need a dedicated SS (Battle) and FS (Stone) on the roster.
Not saying that is a bad thing, just that I'm not sure he is a straight swap for Stone in the way someone like Watts would be. Though Emmanwori is likely there at #17 (or even later if we traded back a bit), while Watts at #49 is doubtful.
