let's just bring back cj miles and save some money

Jazz do love to re-sign their former players.

i love it when jazzfanzers take the words of GMs literally. Never do that. Especially this time of year.

In reality, I think we package the #23 and #35 to move up into the teens. If they bring over Neto, we can only have so many young guys. I don't think the FO is blowing smoke with having so many young guys.

Well I want the most talent the Jazz can get. Just hire a few former players as coaches if you are looking for veteran leadership. Now I am not against trading the picks or using the picks to move up but I think it is stupid to announce you don't want them without even knowing who will be on the board. What happens if the Jazz can move up and find a shooter in the mid-range of the draft. Throw in another second round pick from all the GS picks we got.

Lindsay just wants to stimulate trade conversations. If other GMs know that the Jazz are willing to trade any asset, then they may try harder to work a multi-team deal involving the Jazz. The more phone calls DL takes, the more likely he can come up with a great trade.

Every GM already knew the picks were up for grabs before DL announced it to the world.

I'd like to hear the exact quote when Lindsey said he didn't want them. I heard him say the personnel guys needed to really justify those picks. And I heard Perrin voice reservations about bringing in so many rookies. But that could mean in the absence of a trade, the Jazz use both picks on "draft and stash" Euros. Or trade out for future picks.

Unless the picks are used to help us move up I hope they do this. I would like to see them shoot for something like Swapping the #23 for 2016 Dallas 1st round.

We will use #23 for GR3

We will use #23 for GR3
