Subban will be top 15 and Faksa top 5

The rest seems good for now, but we all know this stuff can change very quickly... Think John McFarland

To be honest, there's absolutely no way that Radek Faksa becomes a top 5 pick. Yakupov, Grigorenko, Murray are all but gauranteed to be Top 5 and the next crop of Forsberg, Dumba, Galchenyuk, Trouba, and Rielly too impressive to pass up on.

If Burke holds the Leafs 1st round pick and they and these rankings hold up give or take the Leafs take Tom Wilson.

I have:

Trouba
Ceci

The defensive crop is good this year, but the offense is way too good to pass on!

Can't see a team drafting Faksa over Galchenyuk, Rielly, Trouba or Dumba (although there's risk with Mathew). He's not in the same class as those guys. In saying that, it only takes one team to like him more (like you haha) but I don't see it at all.

Also, I'd say the "offence" this season isn't all that great this year after the top 3-4 forwards

I've read Bobby Mac tweeting that this crop of youngsters is not deep, and mid to late first rounders might be traded. I thought this group was supposed to be stellar?

which guys on here are good targets for fantasy???
