Yeah, I respected his focus and value system above anybody else I've seen. That's why I posted that Jordan thread, whether I agreed with everything or not. He was lower on Jordan than I was.
That kid used a great blend of early analysis and also projecting to the pros via specific traits and how they translate. I loved that he would do his homework early and not feel a need to change with the wind as the draft approaches. Many of his scouting reports are planted 6 months ahead of time and he never feels compelled to update. Mike Mayock is exactly the opposite, as hoops mentioned. Mayock is mostly a joke these days. He shifts based on what he hears within the league and then phonies up the reasoning as if it's his own doing. Just within the past few days he's moved the order at several positions to fall in line with NFL group think.
Around here I would let Slimm pick. Again, mostly for the same reason, that he gets it out of the way early instead of frantic catch up in the final months and days. That lends itself to clarity, IMO.
