I'm just gonna be brutally honest here.

No. I'm not.

We're a bad team in a truly awful division. Winning this truly awful division doesn't change the reality that we're a bad team. Put any NFC South team in any other division and none of us are in playoff talks. None of us deserve to be. Whoever wins this awful division is just costing themselves significant draft assets and I could honestly see winning the division deluding Tepper into thinking he's got this all figured out now.

It would be a significant net negative for the future of the organization. Sorry to rain on the parade.

There are no guarantees in the draft regardless of position. I'll take wins and a chance at the postseason any day of the week.

In the big picture, life is uncertain 

we can talk about draft and draft picks, who knows if there will even be a season next year.  Covid should have taught us all a lesson about uncertainty and certainly for the younger ones. I’m old, I’ve lived through things   If I’m lucky, I’ll live through more 

Thus, I say be very glad for the moment we are in   Enjoy it 

our team is truly bunch of ‘Rudy’s’ with a short staffed coaching staff …giving everything they have 

be happy for them damnit   Be happy for ourselves as fans that there is meaningful football being played this month 

it’s a god damned miracle 

pro football is about winning right now period.   I could give  two shakes of a rat’s ass about the draft   

So stop the damned sulking and be happy 

Woah buddy, don't tell me how to have a good time /s

I am all in for trying to go to the playoffs and say to heck with a slow down to try obtaining lower draft choices that may not turn out as expected.

I will take an aggressive, forward thinking playoff push, as opposed to a passive draft tanking process every time.

Also there are no dynastys anymore. There is so much parity in the NFL that, as depressing as it may be, this may be our shot. Get a wild card spot and anything can happen.

Yeah, look at the Super Bowl winners from last year.....LA Rams.  They are 4-9 this year.  There are no guarantees when parity reins.

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
