In terms of drafting to fill needs vs. drafting the best available player:
There is the economic theory of comparative advantage (right?) that says you should produce as much as you can of what you can produce most effectively.
I think this applies to drafts - even if you already have A Rod, and Tejada is the best available player on the board you should still draft him, because he could theoretically get you more in a trade than you could get by drafting the next best non-SS.
Sam thing applies to stats, i.e., if you already have a lot of steals, and Carl Crawford is the best available player left on the board, take him and trade him later on.
Do people agree with this line of thinking? I guess it really depends on your confidence in your trading ability...
