Based on rankings this guy could have been had mid to late second round, whether he turns into a player or not we still have to be more savvy than that, there were still some good players on the board that looked better, reminds me of last year all over again.

Brian Lawton said he talked to a bunch of GMs and none had Trent Frederic in their top 50.
And we do have the 49th pic I believe.

Rankings I looked at had Mcevoy ranked 11th and 12th, both ahead of Jacob Chykron.. This is a good solid pick, as good as you're gonna get at 14th..He played with BU and they seen him play a lot..This isn't last year all over again and even if it is, we still don't know what that means..Geezzzzz

"Last year" reference was about going off the board early when you could have traded down and still got the player you wanted.

Charlie McAvoy is an excellent skater, with good speed and acceleration in both directions. He has very good agility, and edgework, which allows him to avoid forecheckers or to skate through traffic in the neutral zone to create offence. He also has good pivots allowing him to transition quickly from defence-to-offence and vice-versa. McAvoy’s strong skating allows him to cover a lot of ice. McAvoy has very good balance and is tough to knock off the puck. It also allows him to establish position in board battles and in clearing the front of the net. Charlie McAvoy moves the puck with a strong first pass. He is also a very good stick handler and can skate the puck out of the zone as well. McAvoy can lead the offense from the back end, either at the front of the rush or as a trailer. McAvoy’s speed allows him to take the puck deep on the rush, or to pinch in at the blue line and still get back defensively. In the offensive zone, he shows poise at the blue line with the puck on his stick, and has the vision and play making skill necessary to be a power play quarterback. His slap shot though could use some work, as it lacks power compared to the other top defenders in this class. He does have an effective wrist and snap shot though, and a good release. McAvoy’s strong skating allows him to defend against the rush and to take away the middle and force forwards to the outside. McAvoy has shown the willingness to play physical. He needs to time his hits better though, as he has a tendency to get caught looking for a big physical hit instead of staying back and making the play. He could use some work reading the play and with his positioning but that will come with time. The strong skating and stick handling allow him to retrieve pucks quickly and avoid forecheckers quickly moving the puck up the ice and minimizing zone time. He really starts the transition game very quickly. Overall he’s been impressive for a freshman defender in a top college conference. McAvoy has the potential to be a top pairing defender, and be used in all situations at the NHL level. He will need some time to continue to develop, and will likely head back to Boston University next year in order to continue to work on his defensive game. In terms of style, McAvoy is reminiscent of Drew Doughty. This is not a talent comparison though, just a stylistic one. lastwordonsports.com/2016/04/14/charlie-mcavoy-scouting-report/Again, seems like a good pick and Bruins are lucky he was still there!! Give the kids a chance before everyone suggests their all nobodies just for the sake of having yet another stab at Sweeney!!! It gets so damn tiresome no matter who Bruins draft or Trade or sign..I'm totally pissed Bruins missed playoffs past 2 years by a single point but the blame can be pointed in many directions!!

Once you're out of the top 15 to 20, there's virtually no difference between those picks and the top 100, so I'm ok to let this slide for now. I'd still rather have Jones though.

Sorry Eddy, I'm not well educated on the prospects this season. Sorry, but who is Jones. I'm suspect on that 29th pick also..The best ranking I could find on him was 46th and that was Bob Mac.. Max Jones maybe??

He nailed it on taking Patrnak and anyone can get lucky but if he can string three years in a row together he gets a really long leash with me.

A shame Bean was taken right before. Everything old is new again in Boston.
Bit of a wasted pick at 29th - they've got enough 3rd / 4th liners with no hands.

Martin Jones. Goalie we acqiured and then traded away for a throw away pick. Martin Jones for Frederic the checker. That's how you build a winner. Now that deal can be officially added to Sweeney's list of mistakes.
