Worst of all Bowman thinks he is the smartest guy in the damn room for this pick too. A sponge could have made a better pick
Hrs typically always acted like a staff converging in a pick type reactor, I dont get why every single time it seems people don't like a move they act like this is some outside single person decision thinking they're smarter than others. I just don't get why that's become default in the past decade in sports talk

I would say call it a night after this post....
Not sure how you are pretending everything is all fine considering he took a guy projected in the 80s in the first round..

When the first thing even used to describe this pick was "its a bit of a reach" you know its a dumb decision

3rd/4th round lol

at what point do we just consider this front office total dogshit in need of being cleaned out entirely...their reputation as this high end group doesnt really sync up with the results for years now, just knew they were gonna go off the board with that pick

Who is pretending anything?

You know jack shit about the kid we just picked. Would i rather have gotten Morrow? Sure...but I trust Kelley....ya know the guy that makes these calls.

What i do know is we got a #1 dman today. We overpaid by maybe 1.5 mil or so for him. Fair argument there.

We lost only 1 roster player to do so. Moved down in the 1st and 2 other picks. Nothing earth shattering.

You sound like a complete imbecile on most of your posts today. Are you Barstool Chief's cousin?? If not, take a breath calm down and realize the off-season just started.

You are better than your posts today. Maybe only slightly better but still...

That doesn't equal dumb decision necessarily at all. The actual abilities of the player are far more key to focus on than uncertain round expectations.

Does everyone still think the Wings taking Seider was a dumb decision reach? I know he hasn't played in the NHL yet but was the biggest recent freaking example.

Yet almost every exact "reach" you learn oh there was 3 teams right after who had that player on their board to draft 2-4 picks later... and wasn't really a reach to teams at all, just scouting sites that aren't in the same rooms or talking like teams do who have a better read on who else expects to draft who where.

The sports world has been this way solidly for a decade plus now, I'd think most anyone following along closely would pick that up already.

The on clock special for this pick is going to be hilarious. Cant wait to hear how they justify taking this guy 50 spots above where he was supposed to go

yeah we traded 4 picks in the top 60 plus boqvist for seth but we got a pick back to select a guy that was projected to go 90th so that was the silver lining in getting the deal done

Seider was proj to go 15-20th, he went 6th...far different than proj to go 3-4th rd and go end of 1st

this orgs track record with defensemen over the last 15 years is horrible, this team doesnt deserve the benefit of the doubt anymore when it comes to defense

Seider was still a high first round talent on any list. This is a lot closer to Boston taking Zach Senshynn at #15 when he was a 3rd rounder on any list. Worked out great for them I imagine though since the scouts and the gm making the pick know more every time. You dont take a guy projected in the 80s in the first round.
