FEATURED

Five in One

A look at how the draft could unfold for the Purple


With hours to go until it finally gets real the decision was made to flip this in a new way. Instead of picking which selections could go where and whether trades will be made & how I ran the first round simulator five times and recorded the outcomes below.

Some are very predictable, others are about a 1% chance of happening but that demonstrates why the announcing of names is discussed & dissected the way that it is.

Without further adieu, here's how the runs went!

So yeah, if you wadded through all that you'll notice how little consensus there still is. That's what makes it must-see-TV!

Not too much longer and the speculation can finally, mercifully be done!!
