OUR SEASONS NOT OVER= WE GOT SHOT TILL ITS OVER.

Well, as far as I can tell, Spags may have brought some much needed assessment skills to the defensive scouting side. Hicks and White were both solid picks, and both will probably turn out to be good players with a year or two of development. If I remember correctly, I thought I read somewhere, way back when Spags was hired, that he also brought with him some scouts. Now, I could be mistaken, but I think it was in some NOLA article.

Anyway, the problem might be that the scouts were still evaluating defensive talent based on what GW used to look for in a defensive player, which is very different than what Spags probably looks for... especially when it comes to the lower round picks.
