    If he comes out what about this guy? We could trade down with someone and probably nab Jeffries between 20-25. He's a SF that is a great defender with passing and rebounding skills. He needs to work on his FT and FG shooting but he shot 3's alright from the college line. I'm all about getting a 3 with great defensive skills who won't ask for the ball a lot and this guy could fit the bill.

    This would be under the assumption that Rudy doesn't draft a SF with our first pick and either trades it or drafts a guy like Ming or Gooden.

    Some of the scouting reports indicate that he has played some point forward as well. While none of them indicate he has the point guard skills of QWoods, it might be possible that they might be good enough.

    If he declares, I am not sure he will drop much past the middle of the first round. IMO someone who has this all-around skill set would fit with most teams and someone will bite before pick 20.
    Choosing him at 15 would be criticised as early, but I think it would be a good choice, providing we have addressed a big man with our "5" pick.

    I also like John Salmons (Miami) in the second round. He can play the 1-2-3 positions and is a good defender. He also played the 4 in college.
