So if you don't work out a player you are drafting blindly?? Really with how much film we have on players and the scouting throughout the years of them playing is not good enough? This isn't the 60's or 70's where we had to see every player in person play.
I am just making fun of the importance everyone puts on workouts. My point is workouts are only a small portion of what you look at in drafting a player.
I would say you pay scouts to do work on these players. And there is game film of all of these players. Not hard to watch and see the strengths and weaknesses.
Interview process can be important if they have character issues.
I never said they don't matter. I said they are overrated.
There were comments discussing how we didn't workout Koufos and we drafted him. And made a point about how that turned out bad because we did not work him out to find out. And my comment about those players was not that workouts don't matter. It was to point out how many times teams are deceived even with workouts. Game film matters more than any workout.
That is what I am addressing. Someone like Burke you don't need to workout. He is worth trading up for. I personally don't think Oladipo is worth trading up for though.
