It should only be a crapshoot if you have poor scouting and/or coaching.
You're not necessarily wrong but even when everyone agrees someone's a hit they can often flame out or at the very least not meet the expectations of their draft spot.
On the other hand we often see very good (not great) players out play there draft position.
I honestly don't see us being in that much better of a spot if we were drafting 5 or 6 spots earlier unless the staff is dead set on that one guy that gets sniped of the board before we get there. Even then is the next guy up really going to be meaningfully worse?
I'm just not convinced that's true
