[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 551497, member: 2846"] Luck was drafted first overall. :D There seems to be some GMs who are consistently 'lucky' like our very own Ted Thompson. If it was all just 'luck', then teams would not bother scouting. There is a skill - an art - to drafting. There are never any 'sure things' and the ones that are close to that come off the board pretty quickly in the first round. Its all about risk/reward. Picking guys who have the skills but maybe are poorly coached, inmature, or some other issue. The gamble is that with better coaching or the maturation process, the player will reach his potential. Not everyone will, but you have to find the guys who most likely will. Great poker players don't win every hand. But they know to put money on the cards that have the highest likelihood of winning. In the end, they will have more winners than the next guy, and that is what matters. [/QUOTE]
