I would trade Cato and Collier for Magloire in a second. Magloire will be a great player. You are so stubborn.
Please provide me a link to those comparisions. The only things Collier and Croshere have in common are their last initials and the fact that they are white. Looking back at that pick it's easy to say we should have taken a shot on Magliore. Hell, IMO they should have known to take Magliore for the simple fact that our history with 7 foot white stiffs that could pass for lurch from the Addam's family hasn't been that great. Being a big advocate for trading for Magliore, looking back it hurts even more that we didn't take him.
I agree that it seems the questioned asked was: Who do you like in the draft? Nick the Tsick "Not like we don't have enough of those" makes it seem like we can take Gooden/Wilcox off the list, then. Sounds like Rudy is looking for a "prototypical tweener" again.
Definitely. This will be a dabnabbit interesting draft. I'll take the 5. Three through one is fine, but hopefully if we're fine with the five, the draft gods won't toy with us and give us #8.
