That’s one way to look at it.

Except that picks can be traded. And some teams are better at drafting and are more successful at developing picks into productive players. It’s not magic or dumb luck.

And since you cited odds, you have to admit your odds improve with more picks.

What seems like magical thinking to me is believing this team can somehow turn itself into a championship contender without some transformative changes.
