I just love love love that your original response included your previous post with this gem:

Quote:they will trust their board and pick the top player on their board, hopefully their player evaluations are right

The juxtaposition with your follow up is :chef's kiss:

I honestly feel we are saying the same thing. Just one school is calling it blorps and the other wants to call it floops. In the end, it's just darft, and always has been.

Think of pressers this way - no (sane) GM is ever going to come out and say "I refuse to take the best player available when our pick comes up if I can take someone else at a position of greater need." Even after the pick is made, they are going to either discount the position of the more talented player or overvalue the position of need in the face of less talent, and by doing so create a scenario where the player they choose is in their eyes the best option at that time.

Why is that so hard to grasp? We should all know floops when we see them at this point.
