Following potential 2017 draftees...

Next year Jazz should really go all out in moving up the draft since it's a much stronger draft class. I mean, trade their 2 1st rd picks along with other assets to move into the lottery.

Couldn't agree more. I would love a top 10, but there will be big time players to 20.
 
Harry Giles has had surgeries on both knees. If he fully heals, he will be a monster and the runaway consensus #1 pick.

A comparison I often here for Josh Jackson is Tracy McGrady. I kind of like a Paul George comp.
He will be a massive SG as a pro.

Markelle Fultz was the rapid climber of the summer. Was unreal.

How are the Jazz going to be in contention for a top PG when they are all in top 10. It isn't easy moving up when the talent is average, how tougher will it be in a top draft like 2017. Unless OKC or GS exploded, not likely the Jazz have a chance to get one of those picks.

I think the Jazz already have too many quality rotation players long term. You got Lyles, Burks and Exum off the bench probably next year. I'd argue these 3 are all talented enough to be starters somewhere. Burks obviously already is good enough.
So you could create a package to trade up if you really want into the top10 for a point guard or something else.
 
Man the PG's are so effin good this draft.

Dennis Smith

Jayson Tatum (SF)

If Coach K can get him to be less of a volume shooter and take better advantage of his passing skills, he'll go top 5.

What.. ANOTHER PG??

De'Aaron Fox (near John Wall type speed)

Edrice "Bam" Adebayo.

A true beast. A beastly beast.

DX and darftnet both have Malik Monk in the early 20's.

Laughable. I would select him, right now, with our pick of I could. I have him mocked at #9.

Can play either guard spot, great shooter, and possibly best athlete in the draft.

Who's the kid from lone peak that's going to Duke? Where's he projected to be drafted?

Another kid I have ranked higher than any other service.
Jarrett Allen.

I am guessing he progresses more than most are projecting.

Thanks for the videos, I would like to see more videos made with less dunking and more shooting/passing/dribbling skills. I know there are a lot of good PGs but there is just a ton of talent so it won't be so bad if the Jazz can't move up.

I am not ready to give up on Exum or Lyles but I haven't really seen any of the 2017 class play in a real game yet.
