Plus I think it’s more likely that if you felt unprepared for a draft you would defer down the ladder to the scouting department as opposed to up the ladder to the President.

So who really pushed for Hunter Smith? Much more likely it was Button or a regional scout than Burke at that point
You don't change draft philosophy weeks before a draft.
You can't go back in time and look for different things.

Sorry ... just doesn't add up.

I get that you'll never accept that though. All good.
