Plus, IF you get 2 quality starters out of any 1 draft you did good. We let guys go and draft guys and force young guys to start. The hit rate on 1st Round picks ever becoming quality starters is like 50%. When you're relying on 3rd and 4th Rounders...that's a very low success rate. In some cases, we'd be better served signing free agents.
Cannot disagree with any of this Pistons. Just saying i think coaching is the biggest problem here.
The draft has always been a crapshoot and all the players from the #1 pick on down are unproven, which is why we should
sign atleast 1 top tier FA once in awhile that is proven if we want to get over the hump.
