Antonio Johnson +110
Parker Washington +55
Tank Bigsby -0.5
Anton Harrison -3
Yasir Abdullah -9
Tyler Lacy -37
Ventrell Miller -38
Brenton Strange -47.5
Derek Parish -52
Cooper Hodges -205
Raymond Vohasek -233

Erick Hallett wasn't listed on their site, but that's not a good sign either.  

Basically, according to this, we got 2 steals, 3 just short of fair value and 6 major reaches of more than 1 round.  

Take it for what it's worth, but based upon pre-draft prospect projections, we did a poor job of getting value in this draft.
