Quote:You mean like that Aulualu pick? You cant fall in love with a guy and just pick him, Caldwell is not gonna pick Ford at 3 if every team has him graded as a late 1st early 2nd, thats just bad drafting, the draft is about value, you lose too much value passing on better players just to draft a guy you like but nobody else is thinking about drafting anytime in the next 20 picks

No, like the Bruce Irving pick. The Jr Amateur Draftnik community LOL'd for days when Seattle drafted him in the 1st round. Turned out to be a pretty good pick.


I understand value as it pertains to the draft, but I also understand that each team and GM will have grades on players independent of the rest of the league.


You don't pass on the player you have rated highest just because everyone else has him ranked lower. That's just dumb.
