Recommended Posts

Right now we’re third in the QB sweepstakes as both teams ahead of us need one. If we win three or four more games, chances are we’ll miss out on getting one of the top QB prospects

 

 
Pick
1
2 
Detroit Lions
1-5 · Strength of schedule: .650

Biggest needs: QB, DB, DL

Week 8 opponent: vs. Dolphins

 

DP: After scoring six points total in the last two games, the idea of a fresh start at quarterback must sound like a pretty good idea in Detroit, which is in line to pick inside the top 10 for the fifth straight year.

 
Pick
2
2 
Houston Texans
1-4-1 · .402

Biggest needs: QB, WR, Edge

Week 8 opponent: vs. Titans

 

EE: Understandably, quarterback is the position everyone is focusing on, as the Texans currently are holding two top-five picks. But there could be a significant overhaul at receiver, too.

 
Pick
3
2 
Carolina Panthers
2-5 · .458

Biggest needs: QB, WR, DL

Week 8 opponent: at Falcons

 

DP: Running back replaces defensive line on the needs list this week following the Christian McCaffrey trade. Complementary back Chuba Hubbard is the only Carolina rusher signed beyond this season.

Lions will end up with the 1st pick

We’ll need to hope for a Texans win over Jax and for us to lose out 

However, I think our OL and defense are both too good for us to lose to some of the teams left on our schedule. There’s no way we’re losing to Detroit. I think it’s even possible we sweep Atlanta. 

My guess is we end up picking in the 7-11 range. Only problem is, every team that ends up with a high pick will most likely need a QB minus Philly. They’d be a prime trade candidate

I can't believe people are really that concerned about the draft order when 17 teams are 2-5/3-4 and we've got 10 weeks left. Theres like 5 good teams and then everyone else 

It’s exactly why I am concerned. Most of those teams won’t pass on a chance to draft a new QB

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
