Title: Pick #27 up for grabs... Post by: SonicsGM on March 25, 2005, 11:51:40 PM Not looking for anything specific, but I would like to lock down a future first for this pick.
If interested, let me know. Title: Pick #27 up for grabs... Post by: ClippersGM-old on March 26, 2005, 04:44:15 AM Please, explain to me why anyone would trade a future first for a second round pick that has almost no value. Because I don't understand why anyone would do that. But that may be because I am a rookie in this game.

The reason is usually that when you get to the end of the 1st round, you may see a player that youre interested in, but you dont think he'll last into the second round, so you'd give a future first to make sure you get your player.

Chances are way big that the future first will have more value than this pick. Right?

Also, if you pick up a guy on potential alone, it may be better to give him a first round salary than a second round salary. (If he is good, he will walk after two years under a second round salary structure with no bird rights) Or, you can invest a little more into a player, and have him locked up for four years. It's all up to the GM. Title: Pick #27 up for grabs...
