How is moving up to the number 1 spot moving way up?
And I 100% agree with El K.
I don't have any issue with a bottom five team winning the lottery. But moving from 12 to 3 is just dumb. The gap between the bottom few teams and 12 is huge. The 12th team was a disallowed goal and Detroit not scoring with 3 seconds left away from being in the playoffs. There is no way Philly should even be able to win the lottery.
I'd prefer to just get rid of the lottery completely and raise the salary cap floor. Everyone drafts where they finished.
I don't quite understand why many of the others feel the need. There really should be a cap and a floor for salary without much space in between.
