Every team picks who they think will be the best player, based on their information at the time.
And yet some of those picks turn out well, and some turn out badly. Some teams have proven over time to have very good drafting and development, some have proven to have poor drafting and development. Ultimately, the only way to assess draft records is with hindsight.
