i've seen it said about drafts where they were both right and wrong so you never really know until a lot of time goes past. The fact that there are rumors starting to float about teams picking in the top 10 possibly looking to trade the pick says a lot and I don't really care what what's being projected for the top 10 but if you can get a Samoskevich in the 2nd round then that also says something. I can't recall the last time I wouldn't really want a top 10 pick, not saying I would complain if we got one but it just looks like you can do better with later picks since the draft is so wide open.
I think trades are more pushed by the amount of action we'll see with the expansion draft, Eichel wanting to change address, the fixed cap etc. The table is set for a lot of action, the fact that the draft is bad is a minor factor imo (I think will see some 2022 picks change hands a lot, and that would talk louder about the quality of this draft).
