Hypothetical on list improvement = redults improvement
« on: May 27, 2016, 12:59:17 PM »
Wondering peoples opinions on what effect drafting 3-4 generally  ready made and relatively good quality players would have on number of wins.

Say 3-4 of Hurley, Mayne, Steele, Prestia, Tomlinson, Nicholls, Omeara, Laverde, T Mitchell, Gaff, Longer, K Stevens.

+3-4 wins per season? Or would we still lack decent depth?

With the exception of Hurley, we'd have to give up a fair bit to snare some of those guys.

You'd be looking at early draft picks and possibly an A grader (if they wanted to go, Deledio is the only one who springs to mind as a possible) in order to get a Prestia Omeara trade done.
