The interesting thing is that many fans would like these players better, had we had earlier slots to draft them into.

Exactly what I was thinking. There is where players were projected to go vs where they did go. If you look at the many different scouting list pre-draft and where the guys, we took were ranked we got.
Mid 1st
early 2nd
mid 2nd
All 3 were around or in the top 50 of the draft. Then if you compared what was being said 2023 vs 2022 draft you could say we got 3 1sts in 2022 draft.
This is why the Toffoli trade is a good deal, IMO we got more than a 3rd.
