I'd take that chance at 20, but I'd still pass at 10. There are still many good options at that pick to have to take a huge risk like that. This is just too deep of a draft to risk taking a Russian who may not play here for years, may be a demanding prima-donna when he gets here, and may bolt for a bigger market as soon as he can.

I don't think we're at the stage where we can take huge risks in the Top 10 in a draft like this. Perhaps if we had more depth.
