Ladies, Gentlemen and others...
I apologize for upsetting everybody with the attached Mock Draft but There are a couple factors that need to be explained before the HF readers banish me to the woodshed forever...:}
First of all, this Mock Draft was completed at the conclusion of the Under 18 Championships and I specifically asked that a caveat be attached indicating that the Draft order was significantly different then the way the article was listed. At the time of the writing of the Mock Draft, that was the order that ESPN gave me and it was to be posted then but for some reason, they kept delaying it until it appeared yesterday. I sent a note indicating that I wanted to edit it after the order became finalized but I didn't get a reply. As for the attacks on me, they are fine because they are peoples opinions but please note that I didn't get fired from ISS and for some unknown reason, I do have some credibillity in the scouting world despite my best efforts to destroy it...
If people object to my evaluations, that is great and be assured your thoughts do interest me but I thought I had to defend ESPN and myself and explain the reasons for the errors when it came to the Draft Order...Anyhow, keep up the great work and keep up the arguments against my evaluations coming because although I'm not going to change my evaluations, I think some of the posters make some great points...
Enjoy this weekend...
