Most of us haven't watched all these players play as much as the real scouts have. That's the truth of it. Our projections are based on third hand knowledge most of the time, and our viewings are oft-limited to the few events that make it to television.
If you've got a staff that's collectively decided the ceilings for these players are:
Brown / Jacob Voracek
Dubois / Brandon Dubinsky
Tkachuk / Chris Kunitz
Then who do you pick?
On the other hand if you've got a staff that's collectively decided the ceilings for these players are:
Dubois / Jamie Benn
Tkachuk / Corey Perry
Brown / Kevin Hayes
It's a completely different story.
The possibility even exists that a staff like Columbus, which took the original RyJo, even has Brown ahead of Puljujarvi. Internal Projections have to be made free of outside noise.
