It never is a choice between a guaranteed better player and a guaranteed worse player.

Never? Lol, Andy how wrong can you be? There are many many examples of a team taking a guaranteed worse player over a guaranteed better player because they were so focused on trying to fill a need.
Just off the top of head, Blake Bortles, a terrible player, was drafted 10 spots ahead of Aaron Donald. Thats one of the all-time greatest defensive players in NFL history.
Not only that, the Jags also passed on Khalil Mack.
This is what teams like the Jete do year after year.

A wrong decision doesn’t mean you intentionally chose a worse player, it means you evaluated them wrong.

I agree but the end result is the same - you chose a much worse player over a much better player who would've improved your team. In the end, what else matters?

The discussion wasn’t about proper evaluation it was about choosing a clearly (guaranteed) worse player for need over a clearly (guaranteed) better player.
