Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the best way to rate a teams drafting is to compare their picks with those around them?
It's all well and good to say our picks were poor, however that means nothing unless you compare the players that went around them.
In essence, you're deliberately ignoring any context to our picks because it doesn't suit your argument.
It's not relevant, because the debate is about EFC's early first round draft picks, and how good these players are ?
And I didn't say that our picks were poor - In a perfect world they could be better - But they are on average, good, solid picks, excluding Heppell/Stanton, probably Hurley and possibly Ryder, and of course its too early to discuss Kavanagh and Joe D.
What's the relevance of saying that Dane Swan was picked in the 40's/Goodes in the 30's, Cox a rookie etc.
