Actually pilots and upgrades are not restricted, just ships. Rey will be all over this tournament, I can tell you that. :)  So I could go with BB-8... though R2 Astromech might be better for the stress clearing for Expertise.  I went with R4-D6 because consistently, wedge is the first to be targeted and focus-fired to death.  I figured I'd prolong that a bit longer, but better maneuvering might be a much better deal.

I've considered R3-A2 on Wes. It makes him mean... and draws aggro from Wedge. He has trouble re-engaging after the joust, but so does his target. It will squeeze me on points though. This is 100 even, so I won't have any initiative bid:

Wes (29) + Adaptability (0) + R3-A2 (2) + IA (0)

Wedge (29) + Expertise (4) + BB-8 (2) + IA (0)

Horton (25) + TLT (6) + M9-G8 (3)

Thoughts? Maybe loot M9-G8 from Horton and give him someone else, like R2-D6 + Adaptability (to put him at PS 9 with the rest of the squad)? That's only a 1 point bid, but it's something. That said, M9-G8 has been potent in the past.
