You are right, having looked back at some drafts there are an awful lot of hacks, I think it's more like 70%+ are poor players and maybe 5-8% become very good.
Hunt is probably worth pick 30, but it depends on who wants him.
Guess we will see what happens at the end of the year.
I should have said the draft I was looking at was 2006 , but I think it would be similar for most. The numbers will vary and the quality of the players is not the only reason for failure. I often wonder with some of the players that if they had been the same bust if they gone to a better club , or a club that had a spot for them.
An example that I always keep in mind is Varcoe V Tambling. Tambling was talented and I wonder if he had been drafted to us and TV had gone to them what the result would have been.
Im not saying picks are not valuable or indicative of something important , just that they are way overrated , but its probably a carryover from the system that we have copied. I just finished watching "Draft Day" , a film that has as it whole pretext that a Draft pick is all important and a precursor to success
