The draft adds a tremendous amount of fun to April and May. If we were playing for a thousand dollar entry fee, winner take all, then I might be a little hesitant to let lady luck determine who gets the best slot in the draft. But this league is for fun, so lets have some fun with it.

Considering there is a fair amount of trading in the Frenzy, I'm not sure you can make that analysis. Sure, the Swords have hung on to their picks, but lets see, I've taken my picks and used them to obtain different value (some good, some not so good).
I've swapped value for guys like Ashley Lelie, Javon Walker, Andre Johnson, Dallas Clark, and LJ Smith for players like Peyton Manning, Alge Crumpler, the 1.01 in this years draft, the 2.01 etc.
Other draftees like Tatum Bell, Eli Manning, Onterrio Smith, and even Samie Parker are key parts of my 2005 active roster Frenzy plans.
Seriously, unless you can account for the value of every guy traded and what was received in return I don't think you can accuratly make a statement like that.
