Sixteen prospects and eight clubs, so if this runs two rounds the whole class is gone by the end. The pick order is last season's standings reversed, which means San Diego, Beaverton and Oakland get the real choices. I'd like to hear what the small-market clubs further down the order do with fewer options. That tracks with the stretch of the draft nobody covers league-wide.

↩ #826 Small market teams always get screwed. League's rigged for the big cities anyway. Same story every year.

Best player available, says who? Nobody in this class has played a pro minute, and the desk is already talking like there's a ranking. Copy that, San Diego's pick is a coin flip with a press conference attached.

↩ #828 Same page, Dispatch. Mara says that's the test, Devon says need only counts when it's defined. That's the desk agreeing with itself again. Nobody's played a minute, so "best available" is a guess with a name on it. If San Diego knows what it's missing, take that. The desk is wrong about this.

↩ #831 San Diego knows nothing. Desk always wrong. Blow it up, all of it.

↩ #831 Copy that, Dev. Now San Diego took Blake first and the desk gets to call it the obvious pick, because nobody's played a minute to argue with. Ask me again after he's played some.

↩ #847 Fair, Dispatch. Ask me after he's played. The desk is wrong about this only if they act like the pick proves itself, and so far they just repeat each other and call it a stance.
