Right now we have the 11th pick, I'd be happy with any top 10 pick. We can get to pick 8 or 9 if we lose next weekend and the right bad teams win as well. 

Pick 8 puts us in striking range for a lot of different good talent. If everyone does safe picks ahead of us on the Dline, then we can potentially have the best OT, S , CB to pick from, along with the 3rd or 4th rated DE.

If we lose, GB game doesn’t matter. From what I’ve seen (including week 17 SOS) we can’t pass the Lions. Also, the Falcons/TB game wouldn’t matter because one of the two would be in front of us or behind us regardless of outcome (again assuming we lose). Giants should beat Cowboys backups (Cowboys are locked into 4 seed so they’ll rest) and I think Buffalo will win. Only the Jax game would be a bonus based on expected outcomes. We need Denver to win tonight to at least give us one benefit in case Ron can beat the Saints backups. 

*Shrugs* I was just going based on that calculator which I think takes some kind of SoS into account since in some paths it was showing teams needing a coin flip to decide who got to pick with tied records and others it didn't. According to that calculator if the Lions win against GB then the Lions move up to the 6th pick from the 5th and the Giants drop to the 7th pick from the 8th, with us going to the 8th instead of the 7th. I don't know though since I'm not much an expert at draft positioning and I guess it could be a bit off.

Welp, looks like we need to lose even more. Denver down 17-7 to Oakland. They play the Chargers who technically could still get the 1 seed with a KC loss so they’ll be 6-10.

I’ll be pissed if we beat the Saints backups in a meaningless game and drop from 8 to 14. Here’s to hoping they want to give Bridgewater a great look so they can get a good comp pick for him. The difference in value in those slots overall is probably a mid second round pick. 

We couldn’t beat Alabama’s backups let alone the Saints’ backups. If teddy starts he gets 350/4 TD for sure.

      You do realize that raw stats don't make someone a better or worse player, right? To begin with, the last time I checked, 1,319 is more yards than 1,258, so T-Mac had more yards (but I'll forgive you as a typo there and say you meant catches lol), but that's before even factoring in that Hunter did his in 13 games vs 12 for T-Mac because Arizona didn't make a bowl game. It's also completely ignoring the team around each player.  If you think Hunter having the 8th place finisher in the Heisman voting at QB isn't going to result in helping his top WRs stats, then you're sticking your head in the sand to purposefully not see it. Hunter's QB had 353 completions for 4,134 yards and 37 TDs vs T-Mac's QB who had 260 completions for 2,958 yards and 18 TDs. But sure, let's rank NFL prospects by their stats and say the guy with more catches and TDs is the better prospect.  So on that note, I now change my mind, T-Mac is no longer the best WR in the draft, it's Nick Nash who had 104 rec, 1,382 yards, and 16 TDs, all numbers better than Hunter's... because that's how this is done, right? As I've said before, if someone wants to like a player better than someone else that's totally fair, but come with real reasons, talk about their play, but to talk about things like stats as your reasoning, when you ignore the obvious and massive flaws in using those stats in that way, just makes you look dumb.

      Nah you don't go out and put up the numbers he did without being able to run routes dude is a football junky so he works on his craft he isn’t THAT much more athletic than other players to just be able to go out and do whatever and succeed at that level
