Curious why you feel this way.
On one hand, I do think Hughes inflated the value of Caufield (a good amount) and Zegras (a little). But I feel very comfortable in saying at least 4 of the top 10 picks should be from the NTDP in this draft, and probably close to half of the top 15 picks should be. There is just a great collection of talent this year from that team.
Don't have any issue with them as top 10 guys, but specifically Caufield and Zegras, and Boldy (who seems to be fairly ranked in my mind) will end up around the back end of the top 10. Early teens. The upside is monumental no doubt, but Caufield and Zegras are very unique players with games that are heavily focused on one specific skill set, and the risk is much higher.
