We dont make the playoffs , how bad can this team end up?
We trade bass, thornton, prince. Again how bad can this team end up?
Bc of how hard CBS wants his guys to play. Play to win no matter what attitude, even if we trade the vets away, we will prob still end up with only a 8-10th pick at the draft. Other teams late in the seasom will start sitting their top guys/tank mode while CBS will want to finish strong.
Usually picks between 8-15 is a game of luck anyways. You want KCP or Schroeder?? Royce white or Terrence Jones?
So it could be more valuable for this team to sneak into 8th, gain the experience/feel the playoff atmosphere to better prepare for next season. Come draft night , Danny has enough picks to move up to 8-10 area or earlier anyways .
