Essentially, this hurts the team indirectly, but hardly at all directly.

Obviously nobody can see into the future, but you can't necessarily say that losing a 1st rounder will hurt the Pats. It's possible, but not necessarily so. Some (if not many) first rounders are never productive, therefore IF the Pats were to have drafted a first rounder in 2008 that would have been a dud, and now they can't because the draft pick has been forfeited, they would miss out on drafting a dud. Big deal.
Of course this all depends on how you think our present actions alter future events. Hot damn this got philosophical fast.
