Right. But then you have to wait 14 more picks before you get two more
And depending on how "spread out" - for lack of a better term - the quality may be....
For example, if the first 9 players are rated fairly close together, and then there's a significant drop-off between 9 and 10, it might be better to draft 8th than 1st.
