So the draft pool should get weaker as the season moves along and the best sounding prospects are selected, but you could theoretically strike gold in later weeks if a good player hasn't yet been offered up, or an owner has previously passed on him in favour of a different pick.

Don't know how he made it that far but I am excited to have him so yes I think you can find good drafts late in the season.
