My logic is that I believe 469 is going to be ranked very high because they are: the highest scoring team, most adaptable team (it doesn't matter who you are, 469 will compliment your robot perfectly), and have good 5/7 disk autonomous modes. 67 is a great first pick because they are one of the few 50 point dumpers (which is the one thing 469 can't do, unless they suprise us) and also are one of the best fcs when undefended. 33 is just there for the 7 disk autonomous and good floor sweeping in teleop. And 2337 makes a good backup as versatile defender/floor pickup
I wish we could see that, but any competent scouts will make sure that this alliance doesn't happen. The first 3 robots listed are all top 15 easily in my opinion, and 2337 isn't a slouch that should fall to the very last pick of the alliance selections. This would be an outstanding alliance though, they could break 250 points consistently.
