Draft Position Watch (Week 9 edition)


Recommended Posts

Panthers are currently in line for the 12th pick of the NFL draft. Their SOS continues to rise (.546) which is a bad thing. Here are the top games this week that can help improve the Panthers draft position. The following assumes the Panthers will lose to the Chiefs this week.

1)      Lions @ Vikings: A Vikings win gives them 3 wins, tied with the Panthers. The Panthers, who have played one more game, will have a worse win percentage and move ahead of the Vikings in the draft order. This game has a net 0 effect on our SOS as we will play both teams. We would maintain out lead against the Lions as we would have one more loss than they do.

2)      Patriots @ Jets: A Patriots win gives them 3 wins, tied with the Panthers. The Panthers, who have played one more game, will have a worse win percentage and move ahead of the Patriots in the draft order. This game has a net 0 effect on our SOS as we do not play either team.

3)      Chargers @ Raiders: A Chargers win gives them 3 wins, tied with the Panthers. The Panthers, who have played one more game. will have a worse win percentage and move ahead of the Chargers in the draft order. This game has a net 0 effect on our SOS because we have played both teams.

4)      Cowboys @ Steelers: A Cowboys win gives them 3 wins, but they remain ahead of the Panthers due to lower SOS. This game has no effect on our SOS.

5)      Falcons @ Broncos: A Falcons win gives them 3 wins, and tied with the Panthers in win percentage. This would move the Panthers ahead of the Falcons as they have a higher SOS.  Sadly this win would also increase our SOS, as we play the Falcons twice and the broncos once. The Broncos would move to 3 wins and be tied with Panthers, but the Panthers have a lower SOS.

6)      Titans @ Bears: A Bears loss would lower our SOS.

7)      Giants @ Washington. A Giants win would move both the Giants and Washington to 2 wins each. However, a Washington loss would lower of SOS.

Updated results before MNF.

1. Jets  0-8 (.585)

2. Jaguars 1-7 (.554)

3. Dallas 2-7 (.473)

4. Giants 2-7 (.511)

5. Washington 2-6 (.466)

6. Chargers 2-6 (.508)

7. Houston 2-6 (.562)

8. Patriots 2-5 (.530)

9. Bengals 2-5-1 (.527)

10. Panthers. 3-6 (.538)

When the Patriots win tonight, they will drop to 14th. (They will have the same record as the Lions, Vikings, and Broncos 3-5, and their SOS will put them between the Vikings and Broncos.) This would move the Panthers up to 9th.

If the Patriots lose tonight, they will move up to 7th, with the same record as Washington, Chargers and Texans, but their SOS will put them between the Chargers and Texans. This would not affect the Panthers current position. 

Regardless of the outcome, the Panthers will either remain with the 10th pick or move up to 9th

Looking at the other teams besides the Jets , if we actually managed to lose out we'd have a decent shot at a top 5 pick

Unfortunately, two of the teams with higher SOS are at the top. Reminds me of the Burns draft where we lost all the tiebreakers and NO giving us the last game dropped us so many pics. While we still got lucky that Atlanta, Washington and New York suck at drafting and got Burns, it cost us pick 77 since Marty wouldn’t have had to spaz trade up for Little. He could have just wasted only pick 40 on Little instead of two picks.

    • Such a dumb pick and most of us knew it Ladd would’ve been the perfect match with Bryce But instead they draft XL to fill the void at the X spot because we had a 34 year old Adam Thielen. Then a year later we draft a real X WR and move XL inside where he has absolutely no business being for a list of reasons
    • My logic was hopefully a new HC would have a LOT quicker hook for Bryce. But, that is assuming they would even be allowed. I guess that's a call to the owner's box for permission.
    • I’m not overly defending the pick. I was team Stroud by a country mile but I also knew what to expect as far as ceiling goes with Bryce  I had concerns with Bryce’s arm strength and size. Neither seem to overly be an issue. He’s proven to throw with enough anticipation that he makes up for a lack of velocity. I was worried about the way he played in college not translating to the league. Spending 8 seconds behind LOS. I did also think it would take Young a few years for him to reach his full potential. I also think he’s too smart and accurate to flat out bust which all of seems to be pretty accurate Bryce is someone you can absolutely win with. No one thought he’d be the type to carry a well below average supporting cast to a Super Bowl. He’s fully capable of giving you those 4-5 special plays a game that help your team win. And then you have those rare times where he’s the reason you win like in Atlanta.  All good teams have more than just a QB.  Even the teams that are winning this year all have a lot more than what we have. Supporting cast/defense… more than what we have  As far as Morgan goes I 100% agree. Fwiw he was legit team Bryce during the draft process. I know that for a fact. Last years draft is a complete write off. This past draft still up for debate. TMac and Scourton look solid. I can’t remember the last time I saw Princely win a rep and I’m being honest. Ransom has a little value. I think ETN is a nice insurance add. Evans could be a TE2.    I think this offseason Morgan will get aggressive with trying to land a pass rusher. Whether that’s a trade for Crosby, signing Hendrickson, it’s going to be top priority. We need a ILB. I really like Kaden Ellis. Sonny Styles should be in our draft range. We also need a tight end and it would be interesting to see this offseason with Kenyon Sadiq
