Another Guard

A few weeks ago, I posted that the Pistons were settled at the 1 and 2 spots, with Stuckey, Hamilton, Bynum, and Afflalo. With the assumed departures of Rasheed and Dice, the Pistons will desperately need big men. So, why would the Pistons take another guard with their 15th pick in the draft? And, more importantly, why would I be okay with it?
Let's face it, if you're not picking in the top 5, you're not getting a quality big man. Sure, there are exceptions to the rule, but, for every Memo, David Lee, and Paul Millap, there are twenty Robert Traylors.
And speaking of Robert Traylor, he was actually the #6 pick, surrounded by this future all-star bunch:
4. Antawn Jamison
5. Vince Carter
6. Robert Traylor
7. Jason Williams
8. Larry Hughes
9. Dirk Nowitzki
10. Paul Pierce

Yikes. That's a Darko-level gaffe. In recent years, only Darko and Shelden Williams have been outright busts as top-5 big man picks. Tyrus Thomas and Bargnani showed flashes of top-level ability and may develop into dominant big men. Outside the top-5 is slim pickings. Except for the guards. Even the awful '06 draft had Brandon Roy (6), Ronnie Brewer (14), Rajon Rondo (21), and Sergio Rodriguez (27). Talent at the guard position will be there for the Pistons at #15. Why waste a pick on BJ Mullens, just because he's 7'0? Take a guard if that's the best option.
