    If the Bulls don't trade up, I see us selecting Doron Lamb.

    chris sheridans mock draft has us taking Evan Fournier. Apparently he can shoot and create as well.

    Well he can shoot on all those fantastic Youtube highlights . . . in real life, not so much. He's a 27% 3pt shooter and doesn't have any semblance of a mid-range game. I think the mocks have Fournier going to the Bulls because Chicago has had success drafting Euros. The thing is, Fournier's not a Chicago type pick.

    The Bulls look for length and athleticism along its front line, but I think they expect more skill (shooting in particular) for its backcourt.

    Yea I read that in the scouting report. Apparently at draft camps he shot lights out.

    Another guy I wouldn't be surprised if the Bulls selected is Jeff Taylor (SF 23 years old; 6' 7" H, 6' 6.25" WS, 11' 9.5" MRV; Vanderbilt, Senior). Taylor is a dynamic athlete who couples an ability and willingness to attack the hoop with a pure stroke. Taylor has improved his three point shooting steadily over the course of his career until now he hits at 42%, and he can shoot from range coming around screens as well as in spot up situations.

    I read an article today where Beal said Jeff Taylor guarded him better than anyone ever has. So ya, He fits the Bulls idea of a player

    Ive been reading the comments on some of the articles and ppl want Will barton. I'm down for either taylor or barton. Moreso taylor because hes longer and i dont like 6-4 2 guards. Idk why, something about them being under 6-5 has always given me the "small for their position" vibe.

    Lamb would make sense as a 2 guard with size and upside. Not framing a poster of him just yet but we could address a need and he probably could be a serviceable starter and perhaps more than serviceable down the line. There will be no Lamb statue on Madison Street but we could do a lot worse. He does seem to have game. As I've said elsewhere this is a draft of Anthony Davis and then the rest.
