I still don't think #1 was over the top, because I don't think there's any real talent separation between the players available now and the players drafted in the top 10 yesterday. That's just the kind of draft that this was and is. Which is why not having a 2nd round pick is such a travesty.

I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that part of my rationale for having him at #1 was that I don't think there are any can't-miss star players in this draft (including him). I think if you shift the entire round from yesterday around, just shake it up and let the names fall to whichever team, it wouldn't make any difference at all, meaning I do not think there's very much of a dropoff from the players taken in the top-5 to the players taken at the end of the round. Which is, coincidentally, why I desperately wanted us to trade down (but expected that we couldn't, because...who would anybody trade up to #1 for...). And I think there are still players on the board now who fall into that group as well, including both Geno and Barkley. I think we're going to sorely regret not having that 34th pick, if only because I think it would have tremendous trade value.
