When you toss in a ton of picks it looks like a lot, but it's a lot of quantity and not quality. For 2nd overall, that would net:
2023 9th, 17th, 43rd
and
a 2024 1st rounder that can't be in the top-10 (condition).
In 2023, once you get past the top-5, the quality of the players in the draft drops dramatically.
With those picks, you're likely going to get multiple middle-six forwards or 2nd-3rd pairing defenders. That's great, but just not something a rebuilding team with a chance at an elite player really needs.
