Tracking the Draft Stock of Louisiana's Elfrid Payton

Andrew Toney was the 8th overall pick in '80.

Chad Ford's latest mock draft came out today.

Had the Orlando Magic taking EP at number 12. Ford is interesting because he is the Mel Kiper of the NBA draft.

Looks like elfrid made the right decision. Maybe he can send some of that contract back this way.
