    Before the combine and workouts was there any chance we’d consider drafting Lillard at #6?

    Cousins? Huh? This makes no sense.

    Good chance that those guys turn out to be average also. As we all know, every guy comes with risks. Seems like every draft there are more top 10 guys that end up being average or worse then end up being great.

    Maybe this is dumb, but is TRob similar to Hickson?

    I don't believe so. But I had seen some mocks having him going in the 9-15 range, including at least one with him going #11 to Portland.

    Well he's one of the guys we brought in for a reason and one of the few who sat down and had dinner with PA.

    We as in the people in this forum? Absolutely not, when a lot of opinion is formed by other mock drafts. To some,11 might have been too high. To our GM and scouts? who knows.

    If Cousins is available in this draft, you give up the #6 and #11 to move up to get him. :cheers:

    Olshey said he's been following Lillard since at least his sophomore year in college.

    Hell no! That guy is one of the biggest headcase knuckleheads in the league. No heart, no desire to be great.

    Next year at this time Fez is going to be saying he was driving the Lillard to Portland bandwagon...

    If you buy a ticket on all of them, you can claim you were on one of them.

    You cray cray. That's all I can say.

    He may not have the desire to be great. But I think he cares more than that. I just think he's a knucklehead on top of that.

    Even if Cousins decided to get through the next 12 years with his current ability level and not improve at all, I'd argue he's better than anyone in this draft.

    It's ghey, and it's stuck in my head - I realize this. It's a joke - people in "my crew" keep using it.

    So I probably won't stop using it. Much like you won't stop listening to Ace of Base (they're the tits).

    About 48 hours until all this speculation turns into reality. Can't wait!
