But if we for example had the 45th overall pick, we likely draft someone that they had ranked in the 1st. Which you would hope has a greater probability of turning into a player. So ya, I don't think the ranking of the player changes the value of the trade. Sorry that upset you.
No I get it!

100% logical.

A poster was happy that they appear to have drafted upward with a pick making a trade better than first conceived has to be stomped on and thwarted at every turn.

It's tough slogging, but you seem up for it.

We can't have anyone in the fan base with joy or hope.
