Been trying to wrap my head around this. Wouldn't the protection STILL mess with this? I think it would put us in a great position because now we can actually dip our toes in this draft and get an asset and then convey the pick to new york and go make a big splashy trade but my brain keeps coming back to the fact that we still have to wait for the draft and that pick to convey. If we take protections off the pick we owe NY then I follow, is that what you're getting at?
