Draft Pick # Based On Today?

DirtyBird304 · December 29, 2013

Can someone go over the scenarios with me? Who do we need to pull for today? What's the best case scenario pick and the worst?

Thanks!

My best attempt. I cold be wrong but here is what I see...

Worse case: 8th pick (possible). All teams with 4 wins (including Minn) lose and we win

Best case: 3rd pick (unlikely) All teams with 4 wins win and we lose.

Stay same: 6th pick (possible) All teams with 4 wins win or lose

Best guess: we pick 5th or 6th

Teams with 4 wins that we are tied with in draft order: note--only 1 team has 3 wins-Wash (who we would lose in tie breaker)or 5 wins so we will only jump or be passed by those with 4 wins listed below. Listed in order o current draft position based on Strength of schedule. Info from GBN- http://www.gbnreport.com/weeklydraftorder.html

3. Jacksonville 4-11 SOS .504

4. Cleveland 4-11 SOS .517

5. Oakland 4-11 SOS .517

6. Atlanta 4-11 SOS .552

7. Tampa Bay 4-11 SOS .575

8. Minnesota: 4-10-1 SOS..513

These teams need to win

1. Houston (vs Tennessee)

2. Washington (vs Giants)

3. Jacksonville (vs Indy)

4. Oakland (vs Denver)

5. Cleveland (vs Pittsburgh)

6. Tampa Bay (vs Stains)

It's scary to think that St. Louis can actually get the #1 pick if Houston wins and the Redskins lose and have another top 10 pick.

I personally don't see us moving up with our pick especially with some of the inactives I've been seeing so far

Thanks man, be rooting hard those games especially if we lose.

Jacksonville and Cleveland are well on their way to losing today. Oakland is playing Denver who needs to win to secure HFA and #1 seed.

Assuming we lose, Falcons are going to stay where they are right now - #6 overall.

Houston seen Bridgewater play last night they will lose today to seal the #1 pick

Really makes those wins vs the bills and skins look like pretty terrible decisions. Lookin like a 5 or 6 pick for us while another team gets a potential game changer. We will take some scrub and be average again.

Here it is (assumes Oakland loses to Denver):

Houston (2-14)
St. Louis/via Wash(3-13)
Jacksonville (4-12) - worst SOS of 4-12 teams
Cleveland (4-12) - 2nd worst SOS of 4-12 teams
Oakland (4-12) - 3rd worst SOS of 4-12 teams
Atlanta (4-12)

Officially rooting for the Raiders lol

I'm sure glad we beat the Redskins.

That Redskins game was just a killer. I wanted a block buster trade down, o well best available o-linemen here we come.

Oakland will lose #6 it is.

I think if the Bucs win, we move to #5, else, we're #6.

Wait... I don't think it matters, if we and the bucs tie in the standings, we've got the weaker SOS so we would theoretically suck worse and we'd be 5th.

Crap. Forgot about the Raiders. If the win we're 5th but if they lose we're 6th.
