In a perfect world you get the young kid who excels at getting to a spot and hope that he learns the whole IQ thing while in the league. Funny how everyone thinks that all players should have a normal curve of progression when the guys who go from average to elite back to average is very rare in sports. In reality most guys come in below average or average, peak out at solid then fall off a cliff. Some guys never add any parts to their game
