That being said, Matt Moore turned out to be the best QB in that class and went undrafted.

Another example of the failure of NFL front offices to correctly identify talent.

I don't think it's necessarily identifying talent, so much of it has to do with scheme and how well these guys mature at the position AFTER college. There are so many unknowns. The draft is just as much a lottery as it is identifying talent.

Then why not play the ticket with the most chances to win?

If the draft is a "lottery" why draft a "pick 3" with a 1 in 10 chance of winning a free ticket when you can draft a "pick 5" with a 1 in 1000 chance of winning, even though the top prize is $25000?

If the draft is a lottery, playing it safe is the WORST possible course of action.
