Seattle, with no first rounder, plays Detroit in Seattle this weekend.  They have no incentive to tank and should win that game.

The Bears and Giants play Sunday.  The Giants (4-11) have a stronger SOS.  If they win, the move behind us.  If the Bears win, the stay behind us. 

If we lose out, we should be picking around 6th, barring a miracle upset frenzy ignited by wins from other 4-win teams.

Tampa Bay has had a flurry of injuries of late and they may rest starters week 18.  We have to lose to their bench and special teamers.

Yep, but it’s not likely that Houston wins 2 (they have a way lower SOS already) or the Jets and Giants win 1. Seattle is more of a worry and kind of Chicago. I think both win this week but if their SOS goes up, it keeps us at 6 in case we pull an upset. WFT isn’t a danger and everyone else has 2 more wins. 

Looking now at 6 if we wanted to we probably would have the first crack at a qb unless the Giants pick one ahead of us.  I still will say this draft doesnt warrant a qb going in the top half of the draft

After reviewing the draft holy hell Philly can really do themselves a big favor with 3 firsts and the Jets have 2 in the top 7.  You could literally change the complexion of your defense or offense with those picks

Or you could trade down to get six 3rd's and three 4th's. That's what we would do.

I'm torn about Pitt QB Kenny Pickett.

He looks like a good (but not great) prospect.  And the Panthers desperately need a competent starter at that position. 

But the LT talent at the top of this draft is just exceptional.  Not only would the team get a good starter there (which is crucial) but that would also push Christensen (and his stubby arms) to LG  - which the team has been saying all along was his best pro position.  So a double win.

Hopefully, we take the #2 tackle. I’d think it’s likely the two DEs, Hamilton and Stingley go before us so we either pick tackle 2 or have the spot people want to trade up to for the first QB.

I keep asking but what team behind us is going to give us over the top value for us to trade back so that they can pick a QB?

 

Wash and ATL can sit tight and still get their guy, maybe Cleveland but I doubt they want to start over with a rookie and give up valuable draft capital

 

So the steelers look like the only reasonable bidder and they are at 16.  So what do we get for dropping back, their 2022 first and second and their 2023 first?   Would you really do that?

      Crazy stat

      By trucpfan · Posted

      It didn’t feel like we’re the Bills bc we’re not a consistent conference contender yet we’re a rebuilding team. But with the game on the line we played just like the Bills went straight down the field and scored a tuddy then converted a 2pt conversion I have to give credit where credit is due. And the chiefs played us like we were the Bills in an AFC championship game, drive down the field and kicked a walk off FG to win at the end very similar to me. Are saying our defense stunk yesterday? Vs an elite offense team with elite coaching an elite QB man idk what you want them to do. KC does these things to the best defenses in the league consistently to win AFC chips and Super Bowls let’s not devalue who they are. I saw us play KC to the wire and barely lose defense did its thing as much as it could. Bingo!!! We’re also forgetting how injured we’ve been defensively this year, yes we need to build up the D but adding a few pieces and D Browns successful rehab should make us a very strong unit again. Couple that with the offense we saw yesterday and we’re winning our division.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      Canales deserves a lot of credit. I'm very pleased. He's definitely making strides with Bryce. I also think some of his lack of commitment to Bryce as the starter is to motivate Bryce. I think he liked what he saw when Bryce was benched.  Even the Defense looks tremendously better with just a couple more pieces getting healthy. Wonnum has made our pass rush viable again.  I would love to see this team with one more good player across the defensive front, DT or an edge rusher.
