Current draft order (12-13-16).

never.... ever.... will I root for MY TEAM to lose.....  never !!  As a fan I start watching each game in the hope that I see my team playing well and win.  

[FuFuLamePoo]

I still just can't see us winning more than one of our last three games.  2 of the 3 are on the road and all 3 teams are fighting for the playoffs, each team is better than us and has this circled as a must win

These idiots that want the team to lose for a higher draft picks, and the same idiots complaining about being okay with mediocracy. 

I wouldn't want any player from a team that is okay with losing, just so the team can higher draft pick. 

Losing, breads losing. 

STOP THE IGNORANCE.

I will not be guilted into cheering for meaningless victories.   You know what I want? To win the damn Super Bowl.   Since that will not be happening this year,  I will cheer and hope for an improved draft position so we can fill the holes and kick ass next year.

There is a difference between what a player knows is best for himself and the team (aka performing well now and winning now), and what management/fans want ie. winning in the long term.

So basically there is little chance of us moving up a lot but a decent chance of us moving down in the draft.  We could easily fall to 10-11 just this weekend. 

In trade value you are looking at a late 2 rounder for going from 7-12.

Not to mention,  we are talking about draft position in every round of the draft.  Not just the first round.

I get the logic, but I just can't sign on.

Always fight till the last breath.

There is no justification for asking any player, coach, to lose. 

In your messed up mind, maybe, but no where in sports.

No one is "guilting" you into anything. If you feel guilt for actively cheering for "your team" to lose then that's on you.

It is crazy to me that we are possibly 1 win away from dropping from 7th to 15th.
