People would be shocked if they could look at all 30 teams lists and see how much they differ from each other. People would be shocked at how different each draft would go if you shuffled the order of the teams and re-did it.

That's why it helps comes draft time to read as many different lists as you possible can. Because you see some scouting agencies believe in certain players and others don't. And where there might be a bit of a grouping (ie. some year might have a top 8 or so that most teams agree on but not necessarily on the order). Last year I had Redline, ISS, and FC. Redline really liked Poirier (see their list here http://www.redlinereport.com/wp-cont...le-Package.pdf scroll down for full profiles ) in addition to Monahan and Klimchuk. ISS thought much more highly of our Kanzig pick than did Redline.
