I have a small challenge for those of you who know the draft.
This is all just an abstraction ... don't need to figure which team(s)
would be the actual counter-party in a trade. It is not real-world,
so much as it suggests what could happen in the real world.
First, using the conventional values chart ... how many total points
do the Pats have? (Ignore possible comp picks - not tradeable.)
If Belioli could convert all those points into fewer, higher-quality picks ...
what is a representative collection of the resulting draft positions?
(That is, say 1500 total value points could become Numbers 28 + 42 + 65
+ 88 ... something along those lines.)
With such a hypothetical collection of fewer, but higher picks ...
what is a short list of the Pats-type players on whom we might
reasonably use all those picks?
(The answer would be in the form of "some 4 of the following 7 guys"
or "5 of these 10 should be available at those spots when they come up".
This exercise takes mouth-watering all the way to gorging the imagination.
Wish i knew enough to start it off. But some of you do!
With gloomy CBA non-news everywhere else ...
Is this interesting enough to play?
