[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 878261"] It's worth defining how fans and media use those terms. I think we can agree that a "fall" is generally taken to mean a player fell to a spot in the draft meaningfully below his pre-conceived value; a reach the opposite. There's something to be said for thinking that viewpoint is meaningless in an efficient market theory kind of way--a player is worth exactly where he is drafted (or what a free agent is paid) because that's what the market says he's worth to the league's GMs based on all information available to them. Therefore Love was not a reach nor was Rodgers a fall. Alternatively, and a sort of correleary, there's the take that, for example, Love is not a reach because a highly paid professional traded up for him. Who are we to judge, even if it has been shown that professionals are suseptible to egrigious confirmation biases? Either way, it makes for a passive experience, precludes judgement. The question is then begged, what useful meaning could "fall" or "reach" then have that is not the one fans and media apply? [/QUOTE]
