IMO you don’t lock yourself into a style or philosophy for each and every pick. For one, it’s not really possible to put every pick into one of two categories of 1) safe and 2) boom/bust.
Usually boom/bust type picks are euphemisms for smaller, skilled players. And it would be a mistake to stock an organization with only such players. But every draft pick has elements of skill, size, speed, character etc. I’d advocate an approach that considers all of these qualities for every pick.
