Beating the Saints cost us 1 draft slot after all

Meh. Getting a win and having 7 wins feels way better than draft position. Either way it would have been a top 10 pick. It's just feels good to finally have more than 5 fuging wins. Credit to Wilks and the team for pushing through this season, not ending how they would have liked, Playoffs would have been awesome, but at least they NEVER quit. 

This season felt GOOD TO YOU?!?!? I’m honestly ducking astounded, flabbergasted. Holy fug I cannot with this fanbase. Only fanbase in the league happy with sub 500 seasons year after fuging year. fug me

Actually it cost more than 1 spot.

It cost the team TEN TIMES as many draft spots!!!!!!!!111

Missed opportunities-> current draft pick

1st 8-> 9

2nd 39 -> 40

4th 109 -> 114

5th 143 ->146

😂

Sure, missing out spot 8 to 9... but there would be about 4-5 teams that need a QB before that 8 pick anyway. Could the Herbert situation play out again, yes, and then people can complain. But to complain now, when the win had this little affect on the whole draft pick order 🙄.  

(Please correct me about the draft picks if I might be wrong)..

Until you miss out on the Justin Herbert’s of the world by 1 pick 

If you think they is a Justin Herbert in the draft you trade up as high as possible to get him. Throw in an extra fourth and the fact that your first is one slot lower will not matter in that trade.

they’re now picking behind another QB needy team 

what an awful turn of events this season was, but it was predictable. They earned how badly it turned.

lol at people cooing about how great it is to “get that seventh win!”

what a loser fanbase this has become

And now we have to play 2nd place schedule instead of a 4th place schedule. So now we have to play the Cowboys (refs), Seattle in their home, and Miami instead of the Commanders, Cardinals, and Jets. The gift that keeps on giving.

Not to mention it will take even more assets to trade up for a QB now (if we go that route). For all the people saying 1 draft spot doesn't matter, Herbert was taken 1 spot before us. But keep celebrating a meaningless win that everybody will forget by next year.

No use lamenting about it.

These are the sh-tty cards we are dealt.

    • Oh it's nothing elite, but we played without Horn last year.  Gilly playing at 80% is better than any CB2 we have had in a moment.  Luvu was fun, but he was out of position in Evero's defense.  Jewell is a tackling machine and has had over 100 in 3 of his last 4 with his highest being at Denver with Evero.  Pass Rushing and CBs are strong red flags but they also were last year.  On paper it's the same or maybe slightly better than last year and Evero had them keeping us in some games.  Hell our 2 wins were due to the defense and the kicking game.
    • I mean best case scenario is horn plays 15ish games, brown and clowney replicate last years stats, we sign gilmore and he reverts back to form after his injury but even then we still lack pass rush and our linebackers are dogshit.  And thats best case.  If horn goes down and if clowney starts showing his age then it could get ugly.  We are going to miss the tenacity of luvu.
    • Well you have year 2 of the new scheme so several players should be more comfortable.   Vs last year DL we added Robinson to play DE giving Brown a solid presence on the other side, plus he is familiar with Evero (I don't like Shy at NT but he was there last year too)  LB- Clowney and Wonnum are more complete/probably better than Burns and YGM, Jewell and Shaq are better than Luvu and whatever random guy from the streets we had playing last and again Jewell is familiar with Evero CB- This is a big red flag but vs last year we kept Hill at slot, we lost Henderson and replaced him with Jackson which seems like a wash to me.  If we can sign Gilly I will consider this upgraded but as of now it's a weakness and a wash Safety- Fuller replaces Bell as an upgrade who is also familiar with Evero.  I think we signed another vet in Scott as depth   Depth is still an issue no doubt but it looks slightly better on paper than last year IMO...
