Last year they drafted big. I am a little worried that Conroy will shift the drafting philosophy towards size over skill but it has only been one draft so will see how the next one goes.

“Absolutely size matters,” said Conroy while on his way to the Nashville airport.

“As a player I always found it harder to play against big guys, so when you can add size to your lineup it’s a bonus.

If the GM wants big then I think it’s harder to maintain that size is just a bonus and they will skew their picks.
