Tell that to the flames though who've drafted their only notable players in the last 5 - 10 years with multi-picks per round in the 3rd, say, when Prust was drafted or chicago in the 4th when they drafted Hjalmerson.
We've argued this before so I'm going to step out, but your logic isn't clear the the proof is in the pudding. Anecdotal evidence to the contrary is meaningless.

Yes, we agree that more picks is better in the long run. But no, I never said anything about top pairing and top line picks.
And I understand that people are reading my posts from the initial perspective that more picks has to be better. Again, that is obviously true.
But I think it is better to have a couple extra picks each year, as opposed to having a bunch of extra picks in one year. That is all.
Also, too many picks in one year can also cause problems with respect to contract limits etc (if you are fortunate enough to have a bunch of successful picks.
Anyway, enough of this - sorry for de-railing.
