Message: <blockquote data-quote="PackersRS" data-source="post: 357012" data-attributes="member: 1429">I hear what you're saying, but a lot of GMs fool themselves by ranking players ahead of others based on position of need, and say that they're drafting PBA, when it's not true.If TT thinks a WR is better at being a WR than a HB is at being a HB, he grades him higher, regardless if we need a WR or a RB.He also stays "truer" (is that a word? To lazy to look up) to his evaluation than most when deciding between close players. A lot of GMs tend to decide between similar players by choosing the one that play a position of need. But they tend to diminish the gap between such players, believing that they're similar when in reality they're not. TT identifies the "gap" better.There is one distinctive difference between TT and most of the GMs, and that is that when he needs to make a decision based on need, he looks for future needs, not current ones. Kolbert from the Steelers has the same MO, Newsome from the Ravens to a lesser extent...But you're right, the great distinction between TT and the rest isn't on philosophy. It's on talent, capacity of properly evaluating players and finding good scouts...</blockquote>
