    Default 2019 Draft 2nd Pick

    Hey all,

    I've somehow managed to come out with the 1st and 2nd overall picks in the 2019 draft this year in my 16 team dynasty. Obviously, Hughes is going first, no doubt, but with the cats in my sig, should I consider Podkolzin over Kakko for the Obviously Hughes is going first, no doubt, but with the cats in my sig, should I consider Podkolzin over Kakko for the 2nd pick? Given he is likely to have high peripherals I think it might be worth a punt, I could trade down one pick and get another pick too probably.

    Hoping someone might have more info on Kakko other than just the generic reports, in a multi-cats league is it worth still taking him? I have the feeling Vasil could be a Ovechkin type player.

    Hughes and Kakko are by themselves 1&2 in this draft. Kakko should do great with those categories and I think you might be overthinking it a bit.

    Podkolzin is making a case for 3rd overall in fantasy for patient owners but I don't see him wedging himself between Hughes and Kakko regardless of your fantasy set-up.

    Someone might have also made that case to pick Pulj over Laine a few years ago. I'm taking Kakko every time here.

    Hugues and Kakko are 1st and 2nd. Kakko is closer to Hugues than Podkolzin is close to Kakko.

    I think some scouts have Kakko over Hugues.

    Hughes and Kakko!! As a rebuilding GM I'm so jealous...take those two for sure...and if your even considering trading one of those picks find a rebuilding team and get a nice piece and prospect instead of trading down.
