As for a successful draft, I have commonly heard that getting two or three starters is considered a successful draft. Regardless of how you feel about Ruiz and Trautman they are both starters.
Once again, I'm not saying that Ruiz will definitely be a success, but in all honesty one would have to admit that the circumstances (which appear to be unique to his situation) have made it impossible to fairly judge his potential to date. Now if he stinks it up this season I'll take the seat right beside you on the bandwagon. 
Excuses. That's all I hear.
Three quality starters would be a decent draft unless you gave away oh, I don't know, SIX DRAFT PICKS for THREE guys we're still not sure will be here next season...
