DeRozan must feel like shyt, especially since there's a need for a PF/C with size and Drummond was available.
They have Bargs, Big V, Ed Davis and Amir Johnson at the 4/5 so they had no need for Drummond. They needed a SF that could shoot and they got one. They should have traded down a few spots though.
But I agree I feel like they didn't even consider it just wanted to take him because that was their man from the start and were scared someone would take him lol...

Exactly. I mean, there had to have been some team that was willing to move up for Drummond. Idk, good player, but I don't he has the upside of being the 8th pick
They shouldn't have passed on Drummond. I think Quincy Acy will be a good value for a second round pick, good energy guy off the bench. Really liked watching him at Baylor

That's like saying OKC should draft a project SF when a legit big man is available because OKC has Ibaka and Perkins
Bargs plays more of a perimeter game and the rest are role players. Derozan was supposed to be the franchise.
If you are counting on players like Bargnani and Derozan to be building blocks of your franchise, your team has some serious issues. The fact that the Raptors were clearly drafting based on need and took an SG is a sign of what they think of Derozan now.
