Yet another round of the draft came and went today, and GMs were desperately trying to find someone potentially useful with their picks. "The first round gets all the hype," said Atlanta GM Bob. "But with all that attention, you're pretty much guaranteed to get a good player if you pick well. Rounds like today's second round are when all that scouting can pay off or not." Bob's selection of Taylor may be an example of such good drafting.
