Glass half full…..we now own the number 6 overall pick

[Icege]

In range for #3, at worst #9!

Let’s all celebrate a flashback in time!! 
 

2008….the last time we drafted Offensive Line in the first round!

And lasted like 1 season!

Hurney traded up.  Doesn’t count.  Stew was the 1st rounder.

He’s gonna reach for Howell or Pickett watch lol

Would a single person be upset if we traded down in the first and picked up an extra 2nd or 3rd round pick, then used every pick on offensive linemen? I know I wouldn’t.

So could we jump the Giants next week even if they have us on SOS? They got a W on us

They won’t win next week anyway but the SOS trumps their win over us. 

[MHS831]

If we win vs. Tampa next week---if they rest their starters and play their bench, we should still be picking no worse than 6th, based on current strength of schedules.

Huh? We are alone at 5-11 and the 3 teams with 6 wins have a higher SOS (we win tiebreak).

We likely cannot beat Houston’s SOS so we can only move by the Jets and Giants. The Jets play at Buffalo and they need to win to clinch the division so Jets are not likely to win. The Giants have been awful without Jones but there is a chance that Washington could decide to not try.

Barring some crazy results, we are pretty much locked into 6.

I'm gonna trust your math because I'm hammered and really don't want to get sad trying to find out exactly how poo we are.

How the hell did this team win 5 games??? 

Playing several terrible/depleted teams/back up QBs. 

I tried telling everyone at the beginning of the season that we beat 3 terrible, terrible teams... but I got bitched at for being a "debbie downer." The writing was on the wall when we barely escaped with a win against the Jets, a depleted Saints team, and the Texans.

[Pazhoosier89]

Thanks Jets for blowing that one against the Bucs today or we would be at 5.

[Ivan The Awesome]

I'm sure the New York Jets are ecstatic about this news.

Hold on there partner. WE beat the teams we are supposed to beat. That isn't the problem. Also we beat the Saints in one of those games when they beat an amazing team before. The problem didn't arise until we went to Dallas and faced a very good Defense and Darnold started seeing ghosts again. 

I'll never get the people that get mad for beating bad teams. Those are the teams you're supposed to beat. like wtf.

Wait, you don’t need math to know how poo we are. We are bottom of the barrel poo. Our pick doesn’t even reflect how poo we are now.

I’d be really upset if we trade down and only get an extra 2nd or 3rd. I’d also like to get one of the top tackles and use our 5 day 3 picks on IOL. Then in 2023 we can use the day 2 picks we should have kept this year on top IOL. I think this would be a really solid and talented OL:

LT - pick 6, LG - BC, C - 2023 2nd, RG - Houston’s 4th, RT - Moton

Hopefully, build out some real depth with the other 2022/2023 day 3 picks.

And then in 2024 we can draft a QB and he will take 2 years to develop so we might be competitive by 2026
