It's a little more nuanced than that, SoCal.

The FO must get down to hairsplitting between several prospects grades for our systems. Especially by round two.

Position depth in this draft and perception of availability of players within a position group are another factor.

FO perception of our existing roster talent and their possible future is yet another factor coming into play.

How does remaining FA players and our cap dollar situation affect our ability to provide depth at one position if we draft a certain player at another position. Or vice versa.

How much to add or subtract in evals for off field issues.

Which of two equally valued prospects has the higher football IQ.

Based on interviews and background checks, which players seem to have the most heart and desire.

I'm sure that there are many more.

But my point is that the draft is not unlike 32 teams of professionals playing 3 dimensional chess for 3 days. Lol.
