I guess it partly has to do with the complete chaos of the 1st round rankings. There aren't many drafts where there are half a dozen guys you could draft at 6 could also realistically be there in the mid-teens. It makes that 6 pick feel a bit less special than it should.

Exactly. I think there are some good talents available, I just think they have been lost in the hype and noise of the build up to the draft. My point is that I think the hype is making it difficult for the team to select a player that will make everyone happy. I think AC hits it on the head when he says the outrage is going to be high, even though the player is years away from proving he pick right or wrong. I'm of the opinion that the Flames follow through on their promise and pick a guy like Logan Brown or Max Jones and profit in a couple years. Those picks won't make anyone happy.
