No consistent vision or plan going on there. They took a cheaper sign at #8 and don't seem to have a plan to really spend that money (and if the plan is to spend it on the kid they took at 44 and Dickey, I must say I think that plan is, frankly, pretty godsdamned stupid).

Even Baird would run into the occasional Greinke or Gordo, two players GMDM never could come close to matching WAR wise through the draft.
This looks like GMDM's frugality at the top with no plan whatsoever for how to take advantage of that in the later rounds.
