The draft is not about "maximizing talent." It's about players that can help your team maximize performance as a unit. Talent (as determined by the media) is not always the driver behind performance. You need fit first. Talent is secondary to fit.

that was a joke you OBVIOUSLY didn't get, since that's the second you've referenced it like that. where did i argue that finding players to fit your system is a bad thing? I've just said that flexibility in drafting is key, which for some reason you've taken up arms against.
I never said anything bad about mcintosh as a player and i'm not the only one that hated the price.
