The idea you can only build through the draft is equally as harming as the idea that you can only build via trade/FAs. It's all about asset management as a whole.

If you don't draft well then you don't have the support cast or assetts to put a team together with free agents, I agree that there is more than one way to build a winner, but all winners have relied on good drafting to enable what ever other plan to work.
