Draft Pick Watch Thread: Chargers + Bengals

[Saca312]

If we want the 7th pick, Chargers and Bengals must win.

Right now we're guaranteed the 9th pick. 

Current scores:

Bengals 20-10 over Ravens

Chargers 10-17 under Chiefs

If you're looking for DE Derek Barnett, then a safe spot is to get ahead of the Bengals with a Bengals win.

If you're looking for S Jamal Adams, then a safe spot is getting ahead of the Chargers with a Chargers win.

If you're looking to snag RB D'onta Foreman in the second, just try and grab as much spots as possible. So ideally a Chargers win.

Bengals game is over.

 

Side note, God I hope the Falcons blow it against the Aints and the Seaturkeys as well. Give NFC North the bye please.

We need a defensive end so bad

So tired of missing FGs, blowing blocks, dropping passes and throwing picks

This thread got posted a lot later than anticipated. Had to quickly update the Chargers score.

If chargers lose, I'm pretty sure we stay 8 because we beat the Chargers

Offseason healing will help Cam's accuracy.

A healthy line with Kalil will go right back up to help the blitz pickup.

Just an off-season for us. This draft is our best chance to retool/fire-up our offense and defense. First round would be the only round I see us getting a defensive player.

I remember reading a chart saying they'll get the 8th pick if they win, and we get the 7th.

I assume they have a better divisional record than us then. They did win against the Broncos once, I'd assume they also beat another team.

Looks like tie is broken by strength of schedule first

Determination of Draft order for the 32 NFL teams is based on the record and playoff finish by each team in that year.

For the teams that did not make the playoffs, order is determined by overall season record, with the worst record picking first.

For the teams that made the playoffs, the rest of the picks are ordered by playoff record, with the teams that lose getting lower picks based on which round they were ousted and the Super Bowl winner getting the last pick.

For the playoff teams that got eliminated in the same round, their order is determined by regular season record.

Overall ties are then broken by strength of schedule, which is a calculation of the combined record of all of a team's opponents in that year, with divisional opponents counting twice.

The next tie breaker would be record against conference opponents and then divisional opponents.

Coin flip will occur if tie still exists

After the first round, the order is determined by revolving the teams with the same records, with the team that just picked first of the group picking last in the next round.

If there is an expansion team, that team will pick first, and if there are two expansion teams, they will flip a coin with one team getting the first pick in the draft and the other in the expansion draft of current players.

Atlanta is the best team in the NFC imo. Barf. Just needed to let that out.
