Another advantage is that you can have a big hopper to catch missed balls from the opponent HP's.
Yes, but what if your payload specialist misses and it winds up in your trailer instead? Points for the opposing alliance... Plus, you have to keep your bot stationary (unless you've got like Chuck Norris as your payload specialist ), which makes you an easy target for the opposing alliance. It's my opinion that people are overestimating the importance of the payload specialist this year.
