The argument is silly anyway. Why not trade every pick after the 2nd round for 4th liners then... Not to mention that trade for 27 year old players with less than 200 games have percentage of failure.
I have a 100% chance of going out and buying a $5 sandwich down the street at the greasy spoon, or I can hold onto that $5 and walk down a little further with a 10 percent chance of finding something better. I might fail and be hungrier for longer, but I can still hit the greasy spoon and get a sure thing on the way home.... and at least I tried.
Bollig just seems like low hanging fruit to me. Would love to be proven wrong though, and I have been many times so I am prepared to be again.
