What's the highest or lowest we can draft after tomorrow?

I think the likeliest outcome is 1-2 spots gained. It’s probable that 1 or 2 of Atlanta, Philly, Dallas, Detroit and Cincy pull the upsets. I don’t even want to think about us winning. To go from Lawrence, Fields or Sewell to pick 13 after being eliminated would put a cherry on top of wasting enough cap to lose a few of our young stars over the next few years of the rebuild.

So we aren't getting to 3 or even 4, no way do all of these teams pull upsets particularly with a lot of them playing playoff contention teams. The good news is that the Giants, Detroit and Falcons all have a decent shot to win. IMO these are the three teams ahead of us *most* likely to take a QB. 

Now that's not to say the Jets or the Dolphins at 3 couldn't trade with a QB needy team to leap ahead of us, but we at least want to be in a higher pecking order than the above mentioned teams imo. Atlanta and Detroit are the real enemies imo as I could see both moving on from their QBs this offseason.

This is all to say that us winning against Washington really did put us in an unnecessarily challenging position in terms of draft position. 

If we win against NOLA this Sunday kiss getting a QB this year goodbye

And Payton is the kind of guy who is aware of that and will play accordingly.  He laughed when we beat them during meaningless games in previous years.

He will be watching the scoreboard, you can bank on that.  Rhule, meanwhile, will be looking to get that 6 on the banner we hang in BOA stadium instead of the embarrassing 5.

I think, however, NO will beat us--run up a score and then bench players in 4th quarter.

I find it interesting that Kamara wouldn't be able to play in Saturdays wild card game but could in the Sunday game due to the 10 day Covid policy. Could this factor in their intent during our game? Could they possibly know which day they would play with a W or an L at the time of kick off? I know they have an outside shot at the bye but you'd better believe they'd prefer that Sunday game over the Saturday one with Kamaras game status on the line.

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
