Bob's is good because he talks to actual scouts and then ranks them based on averaging the results, at least that is my understanding.

What I think would be more interesting is for Bob to try and predict how the draft would actually go based on the input from the scouts he talks to. For example, Iginla settling in at around 10th on his list likely means that some scouts had him higher than that, and some lower. If the scouts that had him higher than that actually have picks in that range, it would be more consequential to how the draft plays out.

I get why Bob wouldn't do that because it would show the cards for some teams, but it would be pretty interesting.
