These two had different, less tangible contributions to their alliances than the picks you listed above, so I could understand that kind of feeling.

An interesting thing to consider would be 900 this year. They were a huge part of one of the coolest things developed in the 2015 season, but unfortunately they didn't get to play on the field. Nor did they have the chance to play with the robot that they originally designed for the game. Still they were picked for their talents and their unique position. I know a lot of that has been covered in previous threads, but Chris's defense of non-picking robots reminded me.
