Draft has evolved a lot since then. Mainly since advancement in analytics. Plus the combine, interviews. What happened in 70s doesn't hold today. I wouldn't go further back than rule changes. When they started the u18 furthest for sure.

When making draft decisions I only back to rule changes. Around 20 years. That way I stay in modern times and still have wide database to work with. Most I ever went back was when u18 started. That was only once. I try hard to study in analytics era.

I find if I go back to '60s,-80s era, game had changed so much it's likely give me wrong opinion.

If you go 20 years, you still have two.

If you remove the 80s and before, you still have 7 out of the 10.

So again, wrong.
