In short you want the best players on your team but your also looking to build a balanced Roster.

Thank you. No one has ever drafted strictly based on BAP. If they did, they may end up with like 4 running backs and 3 TEs.

How many times does one have to say, there is rare instances where you don't take the top guy like if you are so stacked at a position or if he won't start or see the field. You have to use a little common sense

If you are a stacked team with very few holes and challenging for a championship I could somewhat see the needs drafting argument.  We have no All Pros and are a team with 1 win.  I want to take who we feel will be the best player regardless of position.  If you take the gut who you feel will be the best player I don't how you think that is being silly or horrendous lol.  Let the draft come for you and use FA for need like we did where we don't have any glaring holes so you are able to take who you feel is the best player
