A2 makes a good point here. Wouldn't it be fair to say that the scouts bear a little responsibility here? We get excited when we hear we got a steal, such as Shivers in the 5th, but which is more likely...the fact that we picked a golden nugget later than he should have been or that the other 31 teams knew something we didn't?

Sometimes you find gold, sometimes you get a yellow rock.
