The great thing about the offseason is that every team can feel like a contender — for a few short weeks anyway. A great draft pick, a savvy free agent pickup or a timely trade can change the fortunes of a franchise virtually overnight. The downside, of course, is that a bad draft pick, a free agent bolting to another team or a bungled trade can do serious damage to a team’s outlook. And sometimes, a team’s inaction can be the worst blow of all to a hope-filled fan base.
