in scope, how do we feel about the combination of these different players together, so on and so forth.
So yeah, we're working through that a little bit and obviously that stuff on draft night, there's no telling.
All it takes is one team to take a player that you want and you're moving on to the next that you were eyeing up.
And that may, in fact, alter what you do at the pick point behind it and the pick point behind that.
So we're trying to chop through that a little bit as best we can.
Yeah, all teams just like offenses and defense throughout the years have typical
tendencies that they lean into and they break those tendencies, which is always fun.
We try to do the same and be aware of our own so that they can't totally be leveraged against us.
So I think that is a very important piece to our mapping of where we might need to get ahead of somebody or
be able to jump in the draft or feel comfortable if we were able to move back a certain amount that we're not at risk for losing out on a couple of players that we want to target.
So that's an important piece to that strategy is being in tune with a lot of those elements from each club or even trees of decision makers.
You probably hone in on your hot list and then you're pretty refined at that point.
We got a really intimate and detailed understanding of who and what we want, those types of elements.
So it trims the list a good bit.
while there's 250 plus picks, it's nowhere close to us saying, these are our priorities, 250 plus.
It's a lot fewer and farther between.
So it allows us to, even if we were picking earlier, kind of focus that conversation a little bit.
Now you're probably not taking this guy at this slot.
Are you cool with that?
No.
