Interesting stuff.

An excellent dialogue by two guys who really know their stuff. I would tend to lean towards Turner over Wheeler, too, but I do like what I've read about Wheeler. Still, I'm still hoping Matzek falls to us.

Pretty interesting that they have Nick Franklin going 10 overall to the Nats. If they wanted to save money by paying slot you would think that they would try and grab a guy like Chad Jenkins, who would be a much better value. Plus, they could take their chances and try to draft Franklin at 2:1.

Don't get me started...

I have issues with some of the more famous draft reporters. I almost think it's like they sit around and say, hey, I wonder if we could make this guy a first rounder just by talking about him, do we have that much control???

Maybe he goes first round. I can't even imagine #10 though, it's almost like a backhanded slap to the ineptitude of the Nats.
