It can be both though.
Targeting a guy early who sucks (Skyy Moore) is evaluation.
Teams that draft guys late who become great are probably a little lucky and draft a bunch of busts along the way. If they loved those players so much, they’d take them earlier.
The draft is a bit of a crapshoot. Have to evaluate those guys better but also need to take more swings at receiver. Like we’ve done with DB.
