You definitely are. Keep in mind the divisions divide talent. If you look at some of the teams picked late last year at champs, there are some that can't do much of anything after can burglars, and some who can do a lot more than expected. This is due to division strength and scouts doing their jobs. So will someone who can score an auto be around that late? Depends on if there is a strong division where someone slips through.

Another thing to keep in mind is many of the ball scorers use the low bar, which can make a team not very useful if there auto conflicts with someone else's.
