Now, I don't have insights into what these guys are actually thinking.
I don't hang out with them on the weekend, we don't chat on the phone after games.
But I have studied them, I've watched their every move and I think it's clear how they each approached their craft.
They're very different.
BRIAN'S APPROACH
It's still early in Brian Gutekunst's career as a GM, but his early results are pretty consistent. He moves up early in the draft and get impact players. After that, his mid to late round picks are... of debatable value (so far).
