I don't think a suit could have an A on one and an F on the other because of what constitutes drape.

What's wrong with the shoulders? I don't like the cut of his suits, but they appear to fit well and nothing's really wrong with them.

No, they're not natural, but that doesn't make them wrong or bad.

He's a big beefy guy. I saw him up close a couple of years ago at the Pebble Beach Concours.
I think that his suits do not flatter him. Sometimes he looks like a sausage stuffed into a suit
that fits too closely. I am not sure of the solution, but my guess is that a little drape
wouldn't hurt.
