What is the "argument" anyway? Throw games lol

Dustin Wolf is elite, Where was he drafted? Was that also the best draft of all time? Vegas has elite players they didn't draft, be bold and smart.
I think the point is that picks like Gaudreau and Wolf are not consistently reliable. If people thought these players would be as good as they are, they would have been drafted in the 1st round or even top 10.

If the goal is to draft Heiskanen, Oettinger, and Robertson every draft, well, yes, but that is not a replicable strategy.

Luck may be the biggest attributer to drafting success... and you have the best luck by picking higher (and more frequently).
