I started a thread on the subject. I believe in tiers but of course that doesn't mean every player in a tier is equally graded or valued: Think top tier, middle tier, lower tier. Your strained reading of Thompson's quote is either sad or humorous. "You factor everything in. But [need] doesn't carry as much weight as it might with other organizations." Doesn't carry AS MUCH weight - that means it carries some, doesn't it? And  of course he's talking about his process when he says, "There's a certain amount of weighting in terms of need..."  A certain amount but not as much as others. The common sense reading of Thompson's quotes is need does factor into his draft decisions, just not as much as it might in other organizations. These quotes prove you're wrong about need not being a factor. Honestly I'm surprised you can't own up to that.</blockquote>
