the horror of the draft

[beaulolais]

no team wants to pick first in the draft any more.

they try to trade down, but nobody else is willing to trade up.

this is because the first couple picks are always way overpriced.

yet rather than waste the pick, the team usually comes to terms with the greedy agent

and often the guy is a bust like Jamarcus Russell

Most teams often don't like the 2nd pick in the draft either.

Mmm...I disagree on your statement that says "Often the guy is a bust", "Nobody else is willing to trade up" razz

so show me stats to prove that high picks are more boom than bust...?
