If Pioli had no chance of drafting capably because he didn't have "his" guys in place, the same should be said of EVERY new GM? Why do some new GM's draft ok the first year? Luck? Madan Cloe? Why do some teams do well the first year under a new GM? Some actually improve. Magic 8 ball?
And what was more important to Pioli when he got here than the draft? Couldn't he do the administrative stuff later? Change the office around and fire the security guard after the draft? I would have though that he would have spent a LOT of time on the draft when he first got here. Yeah, hire a coach, but leave the rest of the stuff till later. Then again, maybe I'm wrong. I do know that everytime I've been asked to take over a business, I'm expected to make progress quickly. Gone are the days of getting worse before it gets better.
