In response to a piece that I wrote earlier this afternoon, poster/writer LASkin wondered allowed in the comments:
Comp picks only work if you have a fountain of talent that you are constantly replenishing. Most draft picks, especially comp picks, aren’t day 1 starters. They need a year or more of development before they are ready. That means you need reserves ready to step in for the departed players while you see what you’ve got with the comp picks. Sometimes you will hit the jackpot, most of the time you get nothing. I’d love to see the list of the 55 picks Baltimore has gotten - an entire roster’s worth - with their wAVs.
