I don't think you are wrong on either account.  Golden might have been better suited to contribute next year than Braswell due to him being 230 and Braswell being a human hyphen.

Sunniyyi would have provided depth at center, which was important given that we don't know for sure how Sidibe will b ounce back from surgery [for the record, I think Sidibe will be just fine].

We also didn't know that Battle would be coming back, so there was a concern about depth at forward, which made Braswell an important insurance policy when DB left us at the altar at the 11th hour.

I think we got a really good prospect in Braswell -- one who [as the coaches believe] will end up far outshooting his recruiting ranking.  But it might take him two years to gain some much-needed strength and contribute.  Kid could very well be a multi year starter, and he's the type of athlete who usually excels in our system.

But if we're measuring only by short term and who might have contributed "more" next year, your assessment was probably not wrong.  Will be interesting to see how it all unfolds.
