Yeah I probably should have done it that way, I usually do, I guess I was just surprised you would take one after a good one, and that being said for Cleveland I wanted Redwine, even though they have Keil. So I apolgoize if it looks a little harsh on that, as you know me, you know I meant nothing by it. 11-20 is now up and 21-30 will be up hopefully by tomorrow night RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - rockybull - 07-12-2014 (07-12-2014, 09:07 PM)hokeyrules Wrote:(07-12-2014, 03:32 PM)rockybull Wrote:(07-11-2014, 02:50 PM)hokeyrules Wrote: I gave him the b- because he took a 1B when he had Kodo, when they could have used another pitcher or something who I think is better than the 1B.

RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - mattynokes - 07-12-2014 Hokey, I think it's that you seem to dock people too much for things like Need, Dropped, or Already Progressed. Those are all things to take into consideration, but nothing to be scared off enough not to select the guy. I believe SP Todd McFadden (CIN) and C Aaron Powell (ATL) both dropped before the draft last season, yet both had a jump after the draft. There's a great example of two similar players with one already jumping in this draft with Patrick Baker and Justin Neuenhoff. If you go back to March 1, both guys look pretty similar and, personally, I see Neuenhoff as slightly better. Fast forward to draft day and Baker looks like the obvious choice. I think you would be a fool to assume that Baker is better since his vitals/peak/overall are better. Neuenhoff could mostly certainly have a jump just like Baker. For me, another part in this is that we've already seen Neuenhoff age and we know he's not going to be a 6 or 7 peak drop. We do not know this about Baker. So, there's pros and cons of jumping/not jumping or aging/not aging. As for need, I think it's about 25% need, 75% best player on the board. This is baseball, not football or basketball where you can get an instant impact guy. If you simply acquire the best talent on the board, you can eventually trade off the excess parts for something you need - potentially making a great profit off of your investment. RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - cadmus2166 - 07-13-2014 Even though Hokey panned my pick, I'm coming here in support of his Draft Analysis. It's his article, and he is doing the writing and grading, so I feel he's entitled to give out grades on whatever basis he chooses. Analysis of undeveloped players and team needs is always going to be subjective. Maybe instead of criticizing Hokey, write up your own analysis. RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - AndyP - 07-13-2014 Well said Cad.....draft analysis is very inexact. I'm wrong 50-70% of the time every draft. RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - hokeyrules - 07-16-2014 Fully finished now. RE: 2047 Draft Analysis - Geaux Blue - 07-16-2014 Good job Hokey, always enjoy reading these! |
