The buzz on Twitter for the last 18 hours has been Lamb and pick 14 for Barnes and pick 9. So it looks like it will end up being Rindour and pick 9 since reports of Barnes not ending up in OKC were accurate.

My prediction is Booker with pick 9 and Hunter with pick 14. I really hope we end up with Booker some how. We need shooting and Hunter has bust written all over him.

We have got to do something to get more length and scoring from the PG position, brian roberts just doesn't cut it.  I'm still holding out hope that we can nab d'angelo russell via trade up or otherwise.

Russell will go either 2 or 3. No way we can trade up that far. Best bet is to move up to 5 or 6 and get mudiay

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
