I would offer this observation...from the 240 folks deep below....they probably are among the best and brightest. So, it might be three years before you could assemble another team of such caliber from Iran, and go to the next round. It’d be like an NFL plane going down with an entire team...taking several years for them to rebuild.
Each of the other teams would be required to participate in some kind of draft/lottery, but I don't think that would work for Iran.
