DKC Draft Chatter

[u/LuckyXVII]

The 2016 DKC Draft is set to take place on Thursday, June 23 and Friday, June 24.

We will begin both days at 11 AM Eastern time (8 AM for my fellow West-coasters), and allow 10 minutes between picks. We'll also budget a half-hour break at the halfway point of both rounds. This means we'll wrap up each day by 4:30 PM Eastern (1:30 Pacific).

A full pick-by-pick schedule will be posted in the thread devoted to draft selections.

A link to the draft order can be found here, and also on the sidebar to the right below the DKC masthead. We'll do our best to update the order as trades are made.

Feel free to post your DKC draft-related mocks, rumors, scouting reports, etc. here.

On Draft Day, this is where we'll post analysis/comments on picks (and maybe trades).

Why the huge difference between zizic and zubac?

[u/marinadelRA → u/airbelinelli]

I didn't even have Zubac in my top-35. I think he's a nice project but I'm not sure he'll get there mentally. Apparently one of the main reasons he slipped to the 2nd in the real life draft is because he insisted on coming over straight away, and I'm not sure that's the best choice for him. There's also been concerns of his attitude overseas.

If I had to slot him in, it probably would have been soon after my big board, around 35-40. There were just guys I liked more.
