We’re already relatively competitive and will only get better. We’re essentially at rock bottom now.

Personally I don’t think everyone should be crying.
Well, the post I was responding to was describing a scenario where we would finish in the middle of the pack, and end up with 2 late-first picks in this year’s draft. It’s my contention that, with the picks we have this year and next, it would be a better scenario to finish much lower in the standings in order to secure one or two of the top centres that will be available. If we suffer now with losses, it may benefit us long-term.
