I would rather have this guy instead Tyler. On every mock draft he is between 35 and 50. My suggestion is trade the 25th pick for two second round picks. One pick use on Benson who is athletic and good defensive remind me of Dalembert and with the other take Reggie Jackson, David Bertens,DeAndre Liggins, Iman Shumpert or LAceDarius Dunn. But Benson must be one of those two.

 My opinion is that players from 20th pick to 40th pick will be simular on this draft

I wouldn't be surprised if Danny would absolutely jump at a deal like that in this draft...but I don't think deals like that will be on the table unless the Clippers really fall in love with someone. 

Particularly given the new CBA, those second round picks could be very valuable, and I think Danny would love the flexibility they would give him with his roster, over having to guarantee a guy he may not be sold on a first round contract.

No, it's too large a fall.

Keep the 25th pick. They'll be able to buy a pick in the middle of the second round easily enough.

If Danny could buy another pick somewhere around 25, I'd make the deal.  4 picks this draft with 3 projected to be around the same talent level is worth taking.  Bought Pick, #37, #47 and #55 would really increase the odds Danny lands a couple of players that could contribute going forward.  It would also give him the flexibility to grab someone who's more nba-ready while picking someone that may need more time to develop but have a bigger upside.
