They don't. They hit at the 35-40% range, which is generally the top marks for a GM.
All teams miss more than they hit. The key is to not dip below 30% hit rate.
Yeah, idk where people get that from. For all intents and purposes, if you get 3 players out of a draft, that is considered a good draft.

The best part about drafting Pettis is that now Kyle knows not to draft guys like Pettis. Day 2 picks should require research into their personality and work ethic.
Looking back, Deebo couldn't be any further from playing style than Pettis. The complete opposite. Seeks contact, a bully and more of a RB mentality.
That's one of the most irritating things about some posters. Refusal to recognize that this regime has gone COMPLETELY in the opposite direction since drafting Pettis. Samuel, Hurd, Jennings, Aiyuk, etc.
At any rate, Pettis is now gone and some will still be harping on this pick years later.
