    Looking at the Cousins thread, the opinions on him seem to pretty evenly distributed.

    So how about the other freshman PF/C, Derrick Favors?

    What will he be?

    Personally, I would take him long before Cousins, and nowadays most mock drafts seem to agree with me. But it hasn't always been like this. Earlier this season, Cousins was continuously higher ranked of the two.

    I say unless he gets injured he will be an Allstar. With his combination of:

    Physical abilities+Work Ethic+Athleticism=Allstar

    Down the road he'll be the most valuable asset out of this draft.

    I'll bump this and see if we get some more opinions now that Cousins' stock is on the rise again and there are reports of him mandhandling Favors in the NJ workout.

    Minnesota's GM had also some unflattering comments about Favors, though it could be just an attempt to make him drop to their lap.
