Their draft position isn't that relevant anymore.

I see it as a risk. Hamilton may be a good option to get a better player than hoping these young guys can develop into roles. We cam always worry about the other intangibles through other options but the assets available are not always there to get an elite skilled player. I hope they go for a home run instead of potential.
