Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2792447, member: 5798"] You're right about the 2nd round draft picks (and a few 1st round picks). Most of them don't stick. I did a little research, here's what I found. Going back to the [B]2015[/B] draft class (KLM/Kiah Stokes' class), only two 2nd round draft picks from that class are still in the league : [B]2015[/B] - Three 1st rounders are gone: [B]Crystal Bradford[/B] (LA), [B]Ally Mallot [/B](Was) &[B] Samantha Logic[/B] (Atl). The two remaining 2nd rounders: [B]Natasha Cloud[/B] (Was) [B] & Betnijah Laney [/B](Conn). [B]2016 [/B]- 1 first rounder is gone: [B]Adut Bulgak[/B] (NY) - No 2nd round draftees are active. [B]2017[/B] - 2 first rounders are gone: [B]Evelyn Akhator[/B] (Dal) & [B]Tori Jankoska[/B] (Sky) - Two second rounders left: [B]Lindsey Allen[/B] (Aces) & [B]Erica McCall [/B](Fever). [B]2018[/B] - Five of the 12 second round draftees are still in the league: [B]Jamie[/B] [B]Nared, Stephanie Mavunga, JiSu Park, Myisha Hines-Allen [/B]& [B]Mercedes[/B] [B]Russell. [/B] Only[B] 9[/B] of the 48 (18.5%) players drafted in the 2nd round the last 4 drafts have managed to hang on. [B]Two 3rd round players [/B]drafted since 2015 remain: [B]Temi Fagbenle[/B] (Min) & [B]Alexis Prince[/B] (Atl). There are at least 12 (probably more) players in the league now, that won't be next year to make room for the incoming class of 2019, assuming all 12 first round picks make the cut. You've got to figure at least 2-3 2nd rounders will stick. Megan Walker will be a [B]sophomore[/B] this season. [/QUOTE]
