Lots of focus on the draft but that is just 1/3 of the way you develop a team. Trades/Free Agency are the other 2/3. Understatement that we have not done a good job on the drafting recently, but the trades/FA pick ups over the past few years have been very hit and miss, unlike what Detroit has done, particularly with their reclamation projects (Cleary, Eaves to name two).
Considering what picks we have had over the past 4 drafts our drafting has actually been fine, imo.

Hopefully Feaster plans to keep our picks (not use them as trade bait) then our drafting should hopefully appear even better.
