We'll take what we get. Last year, we found ourselves in both positions (picked at Buckeye and MMR, seeded at Nats and IRI) and liked both for different reasons. If you're one of the top 4 seeds, it's probably helpful to be seeded. The lower seeds won't get the best picks (unless they themselves get picked). So, if you get picked by a good team, it's probably good to be picked, but it's nice to have the degree of control that being seeded gives you.
