Vrana or fabbri

[p011406]

Who do you think has the most upside and less chance if bust?

Definitely Fabbri. He's a borderline Top10 pick at this point with his second half and playoff dominance. He's the real deal, and his skill is off the charts. Vrana definitely has upside, but I think Fabbri is simplya better option at this point. In the prospects guide, he's likened to a Jordan Eberle type player, very high skill and determination, which are both needed in spades to overcome his size. Despite the small frame, he's a wizard. Vrana is a very similar player in terms of skill and short stature, but I feel like not only does Fabbri probably have a slightly higher upside, he is a safer selection, and he has a much higher perceived value. If we're talking about which player you should select in a fantasy draft, it's definitely Fabbri at this point.

I'd go with Fabbri even if I think Vrana is a bit underrated in some mock draft.

I was able to draft Vrana at 23rd overall in my recent 2014 entry draft for a dynasty league (standard multicat + Hits, Blks, FW): http://forums.dobbersports.com/showt...86#post1277886

I think he's definitely a bit underrated at this point, considering the fact that his skill and upside had him in a possible top-10 conversation at the beginning of this past year; however, he hasn't exactly been a worldbeater against bigger, stronger, older competition, and his draft value has dropped a bit. He may end up becoming a better player than Fabbri, and it really wouldn't surprise me a lot. I just think Fabbri has shown a lot more recently, and his value and likely draft position have skyrocketed. Like I said, Fabbri probably has a slightly higher raw upside, and I think there are a number of reasons to prefer him over Vrana.

100% agree mounD. Even if Vrana played well at the WJC-18 against his peers to help his stock, I'd go with Fabbri.
