Congrats on their shrewd move of getting gifted good lottery odds and happening to win the 2nd pick. (In what was likely a fixed lottery looking at the results)
With a flat cap likely and Seattle having the most cap space, I think they will be big players in the FA market.

I don't think they'll be as good as Vegas though because what Vegas did as an expansion team was rare in professional sports in general. Replicating that is an unrealistic expectation. I also think teams learned their lesson and won't be giving up assets to protect players. It ended up being poor asset management for most teams.
