They are trying to manufacture a draft pecking order that has some plausibility.

They are in a panic because the lottery order numbers are meaningless as projections yet binding for locking in salaries.

What will happen is something like a money laundering scheme to funnel money to certain agents whose 'clients' will get top billing.

The draft order is likely getting cooked already. Our later picks are gold given the gaming of this lottery.

I don’t get this. What’s the harm in getting the draft done and dusted?

Teams want to know the numbers and financial outlook for next season before the draft, as it will effect whether they do any draft day trades

I hope this doesn't drag into mid November. End of October is fine. But i too am impatient. Too much time for speculation, i just want to see what we do this off-season.

maybe they want a bubble combine? provide a way to safely do individual workouts with draftees?
Time to figure out a plan for next season?

I want to see more "we should draft Nesmith" threads. Let's push this baby to Feb. 21, at the earliest.

By the rime they hold the draft the players will be too old to be considered for the first round.
