In the one example, I'd take Doughty. I think what this discussion comes down to is that some inexperienced, stupid, stats loving, fatherless, motherless, drug addled, cockalorum, lickspittle, smellfungus, snollygoster, ninnyhammer, mumpsimus, milksop, hobbledehoy, pettifogger, and mooncalf posters just don't value defencemen.
