About this "meaningless" game and the draft

We won a glorified preseason game where our backups beat their backups where neither team had anything to gain and we had a ton to lose by winning... and dumbass fans like you want to stick your chests out like we accomplished something. It's comical.

 tell the Panthers players to take a dive--good god, what nonsense.

So can I get your opinion during the draft when we are picking 15th (it looks like) instead of 8th when we miss out on the elite defensive prospects?

Let me know

OK will let you know-can't believe the BS on this board,

[Pi = 3.1SHutYoMouth!]

Better hope for some QBs to be over drafted this year. I can see Haskins and Grier go pretty high.

I think the best was a 7/8 pick and now I think we get 16/17 ish. 

Getting a pro bowl player with the 6-10 pick is 48% and pick 16-20 is 24% if you look at those 5 drafts. Getting a All Pro is is 32% and 16%

 

Started the day at the 11th spot. 

With how games ended, we would have had the 9th pick.

Now we are staring down the 16th pick unless there are some unexpected upsets in the afternoon games. Highest we could get now is 13th I believe.

Oh.. and the Falcons are still picking right in front of us.

Meanwhile, as the early games go to the half, there is some movement in FPI's projected draft order:

Live order of FPI's average projected draft position as of about 2 p.m.:

1. Cardinals
2. Jets
3. 49ers

8. Bucs
9. Falcons
10. Bills

Watch the Bucs grab a franchise LT and the Falcons grab an elite defensive lineman right ahead of us and we'll land a linebacker.

stbugs said a range from 9-16 is what would have been possible with what teams have won and depending on what happens in the later games.  Kind of missing the 11-15 range there.  The 6,7,8,17,18,19, and 20th pick really don't matter for us since it was never an option with how other games turned out.  Unless stbugs is wrong.

this is the most empty win over the Aints in their own dome. i can't even care that we won because it meant nothing to either team and we've sacrificed draft position for nothing.

This.

It may go down in the record books as a Panthers win/Saints defeat, but anyone who believes the Saints brought their "A game" today is deluding themselves.

11-15 is 44 % for a pro bowler and 20 % for a All Pro. After the 15 pick there seem to be a drop off

I hate losing out on some stud DEs now, but I do enjoy beating the Saints

Any chance we can grab Deionte?

Oh god don't bring up Hurney and second round.  What is he at?  One possible good 2nd rounder in his career.  Donte Jackson?

Ryan Kalil was a second rounder.

I need to take a little break for a while. Y’all are crazy.
