A NFL team should not plan to tank for the highest draft pick

If they have any pride at all, then play the hardest you can to win. If you suck and lose out, that's fine.

If playing with half hearted effort and a losing mentality, then go the fug home. I'd rather have a team that gives 110% then one that drags ass across the field in a losing effort. 

Never a sure thing in the draft. Play to win and let the chips fall where they may.

What do you want them to? Just lay down and give up? Yes Pride....in themselves as men. You always give the best effort you can at your profession.

More often then not the #1 overall does not end up changing the course of a franchise (just looking back on the last 30 years of #1 overalls).  It would be much better if Wilks managed to turn some things around this season and identify core players to build around.

There aren't any "psst... let them win" conversations. The conversations with the players and coaches are like this now "psst... the coaches were fired, the players are next, so give it your all."

Even so, it's better if we lose out for draft position. We're not trying to lose, but losing helps us at this point.

      "If you could change any one instant in Carolina Panther history, ... just ONE, ... what would it be? Initial gut reaction when I first thought of this question is Kasay kicks it in bounds on the kickoff, but unfortunately I still think New England wins that game even with that My second instinct was pulling Bene out before he breaks his leg in the playoffs. My crackpot theory is if he never gets hurt we win the superbowl. I refuse to go back and watch the game but at some point Peyton throw an absolute duck that should have been pick 6'd. but because we were on our like fifth outside corner he was slow to the ball. this would have completely flipped that game because I'm pretty sure Denver scored that drive and the next one was the Cam sack fumble

      1a. Drafted Tom Brady in the 5th round. 1b. Might be an unpopular opinion, but when Reid was let go in Philly, k would have fired Rivera and brought him in. It was obvious he was an offensive genius. Coaches like Reid don't come available often.
