We have just traded our 4th, and have no pick in the 3rd, and also no 6th, so we actually only have a 5th round pick left and 2 7ths. 

If we don't trade back into the second/third/4th it looks like the group is more less satisfied with our Quinn/Peterka haul. They wanted to address RW goal scoring and they did.

And we don't have a 3rd or 5th next year, because Botterill

They wanted to add competitive, productive forwards and they did.

Ya our pick situation is a bit barren.

Right wing forwards. So yes, a need.

Botterill squandered picks, Adams just hasn't added any yet. He's -1 though for picks after trading up.

But my impression is they got their guys - they wanted to come away with 2RW scorers and that's what they did, regardless of who else fell to them (round 1)

Why are you so certain this is the case? Why does it have to be "we have to get two RWs who can score?"

Why isn't it as simple as they thought Quinn was they best player at 8 and they ranked Peterka far higher than 38?

Cause Quinn wasn't the best player at 8

Re - Peterka - I'm looking at things in totality - it's why I also mentioned trading back in. If we don't trade back in, and all we come away with in the first 4 rounds is two goal scoring RWs, I'd say that was a pretty clear focus. None of it jives with their statements to analytics either.

How do you know?

I dunno man, maybe everyone was wrong and Quinn will end up the best of the guys there - let's go with that. 

FWIW - The Oilers had Quinn high, too. With their stellar drafting record.

I am sure you learnt your lesson well from all the examples you have to work from.  (I sound like myself when I taught math.)

Buffalo picks after 8 (Quinn) and 34 (Peterka) as of the start of Round 4: 131 (5th round) and 193 (7th round).

And 216 via Dallas (Fedun)
