The thing that gets under my skin about stats like this is that it attempts to normalize drafts across years and that's simply not fair. Take a look at the recent history of this team; we had the #2 overall pick last season in a draft that was thought, and still may turn out, to be lacking in "star quality." Now fast forward to this season. Who doesn't think that this season's #3 overall isn't "worth" more than last seasons First Round pick based on who's available in the draft.

Drafts are independent entities that have their own discreet values. Yes, there are lots of similarities but it just seems flat out wrong to imply that a top five pick in every draft for the last twenty years has the same value. It just makes no sense to me.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
