Tyler ranks the Season 45 Rookies

Subject: My Season 45 Rookie Ratings

Not the best class, not the worst class (but close to it). Two major notable outcomes: almost every player is a hacker, and there is no one classified as excellent.

That being said, here goes. Line breaks of quality are

Great pick 1
Good pick 2-3
Speculative 4-7
Wasted pick 8-12
Fire your GM 13-16
bF - Eddie "The Milkman" Creamer - big man has all the tools. A little weak in the short zone and a little hacky, but will be a perennial starter, probably a all star on occasion if he improves.
G - Mister Methane - Has all the offensive tools, hold ball handling, to be a 20+ point scorer, but will foul out most games. I think he ends up the most exciting player here, and will sell the most jerseys this year. KC would love to have him. Good rebounder
C - Papa "Pupa" Popcorn - Solid everywhere, will be the most consistent player in the schizophrenic rookie pile. Great D, Reb, Offense, pass. Struggles in the short zone
G - AnDamian Wayne, great Reb, volume shooter, can defend a bit, his value depends what team he's on. Could be as low as 6th on a team with a strong front court.
sF - Hi-Ho Bootwhip, hacker with no D, good ball skills, great shot. This guy will score
G - Don Barzini, looks like a defensive minded, good rebounding, passer. Low shooting % should be expected, but not a shooter
G - Buddy Flakes - All american boy has some nice skills that could make him a contributor somewhere. Defense against shot is lacking and hacky but can rebound and shoot from the mid zone
C - Asiago Cheese - pretty solid all around. Struggles from the short zone where he shoots it, but will be a nice bench player to have.
G - Oil Pan Phelps. Great rebounds, good ball handler, amazing from 3, but Im not sure where this guy could play. He cant make too many shots and he plays zero def (hack on seven). Basically barzini with worse defense. Stands to be an allstar if he improves his 3pt tendency
F - Odell Taters - not gonna kill you anywhere
C - Waylan Pillsbury - No defense AT ALL, but otherwise can get the job done off the bench
G - Phillip Mamouf-Wifarts - wont kill you, a little hacky, but can make some shots and defend a little.
C - Chick "the preacher" Blades - hacker, sucks at most things
sF - Billy Bowel - all around trash with a block on 7
F - Rudy Schmegagas III - pure hacky garbage - with a block on 7
F - Dreamy "the possession ender" Ray Wilson - a shooter the like's we've never seen. Rolled the highest shooting tendency possibly for a forward, will shoot immediately no less than 60% of the time he gets the ball, and has no business in any zone doing so. Also super hacker with no rebounding or ball skills. utter garbage
