I digress, the problem might be fixed, but for a long time we seemed to be a consensus selecting team, much to our own detriment.

Ah it's a fine line
Feaster and Weisbrod got critized for the opposite and not drafting by consensus and thinking they were the "smartest guys in the room".
I think the key is just to prioritize skill, speed, and previous results over size and intangibles.
You do that and you probably come out ahead more often than not.
