    Does anyone have any informations as to which picks we have (or may have) and which picks we owe.
    I know we have Toronto's pick next year and Owe for Tmo (is that a 2002 pick or do we have an option to defer it)
    With so many trades the last 3 years I'm not sure what we have coming/going in the draft.
    Thanks for any info!

    I think we gave Atlanta the Mirsad Turkan (Detroit's 1st round) pick but who knows, it would be MUCH COOLER if we could give them the Toronto pick for Morris and we keep Detroit's pick, which should be much better.

    Anyone know if the Morris trade specified which pick or if it was just a "1st round draft pick next year"?

    Detroit's pick could easily be lottery!!!!

    Houston did give the Detroit pick to Atlanta, but they did that because it isn't that valuable. Unlike many picks with time considerations, the Detroit pick can be anyone's pick. Detroit just has to trade for a pick and give it up (they could trade for the last pick in the first round and give it up). And it still isn't due for a couple more seasons still.

    I think Atlanta did get the Detroit pick from us, but I think it's probably lottery-protected.

    I think we owe our 1st rounder to Memphis next year - I hope that is lottery-protected as well.
