Cameron Erving should've taught everyone that 'versatility' is NEVER a reason to take a player in the 1st round.

Ever.

All it means is that you're not a 1st round caliber player in any specific position. Otherwise THAT would be what leads off your scouting report.

But man, every glowing draft analysis I saw of Cameron Erving led off with 'he's a versatile player who can play anywhere on the line...' and if THAT'S the first thing you're saying about a player, then he's not a first round talent.

If he were, it would be the talent you're leading with.
