Me too. I'll take a 3rd rounder for my 8th/9th round picks. </p>

Not sure of the Brandon Roy pick. He has talent, but I doubt he'll never be able to stay healthy.</p>

Shelden Williams is a WTF pick...but now it makes sense why he likes Parisa so much...bad eye for talent. </p>

 

I agree.</p>

</p>

SHAVE THOSE SIDEBURNS MATTINGLY!</p>

wtf???????????</p>

 

Cpawfan should soon update the selection thread then. </p>

 

We have to stop allowing these horrible trades.

How do you people sleep at night?

 

Why would you trade a 5th and 12th for an 8th and 9th???????

 

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kid Chocolate)</div><div class='quotemain'>Why would you trade a 5th and 12th for an 8th and 9th???????</div></p>

</p>

I felt like it was a good move.</p>

 

If anybody is looking for a 6th round pick or two, I have three of them.

How? Higher picks have more value, and you move down 3 rounds and gain 3 rounds. Even by that logic, you'd break even, but you are losing 3 rounds on a 5th rounder, or a starter, for a 8th or 9th man.</p>

</p>

That makes no sense.</p>

 

I should have traded my first and 12th round picks for 6th and 7th.

Whatever floats your boat, it just doesn't make any sense. You could have picked up your last starter in the 5th, and instead now you will be using the picks you obtained for 7th and 8th men.</p>
