With 2415 being in the top 3, I was surprised they weren't chosen until the last round. I would've thought they would be chosen quickly.
It seemed like most teams wanted a wide bot as their first picks with a few exceptions. 2415 was quickly snatched up in the second round by the number 7 alliance, as they already had 2 widebots, 195 and 2046, assuring their ability to triple. And as has been said before, OPR isn't all that reliable a statistic this year for rebound rumble. Our scouting data showed we (2046) were consistently putting more points on the board than 973 yet their OPR is more than 8 points higher.
