Maybe, but it's also how you stock a pipeline. Almost all of the impact players on the current team are under 24, so our Cup window should run nice and long if we get the right pieces together.
I don't disagree, but you can say "stock a pipeline" in reference to any draft pick, since outside of the top 3 picks and extreme luck in the draft, every player usually has a 2-5 year gestation time. Adding 2 year or so to that is not adding value.
My point is that even if people want to be excited because of 'unprotected lottery' possibilities, the delayed pick is probably considered less valuable as an asset then the immediate known pick.
