I have yet to see a robot that could only grab 2 cans in autonomous and wasn't already competent enough that it would be picked up in the first round of the draft. You're describing a pretty technically challenging task that is way beyond most teams this year (which is another point of this thread.) (I've watched quite a few webcasts.) The choices have always been between robots that might at most be able to put up 2 tote stacks.
