Patriots had the 1st draft pick locked with a loss today... but they won anyways. So yeah, draft position certainly matters to fans and front office people but coaches and players? if they care even a little, they'll try to win.

I would rather draft #1 overall than later on the draft. Moral victories can't be measured. Draft capital can be. One has real value. The other is cope.

human psychology is real. growth being a multistep process is real. wins begat more wins by building confidence and growth. you can’t build a winning program by losing.

The Tampa game made the result of our game irrelevant. The Falcons were out no matter what.

Our game made the result of that game equally irrelevant.

The Falcons needed two things to happen to make the playoffs. The fact that the one they had an active role in didn't is because of us.

Tell tht to the Colts. Peyton Manning was the #1 pick in 1998.

100% if draft capital were so important why do organizations like the Steelers, who never kick in the the top 10 find a way to compete year after year? Above all they have a culture.

There's some really bad logic going on in this thread. LOL!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By NAS · Posted

      I find it funny those who continue to hate on Bryce based on his rookie year when he had zero weapons or offensive line have a problem with those of us projecting his career from the 8-9 games where he played like a top 10 QB and made more big time throws during that period than any other QB.  The stats may bot have been there in terms of yards or TD passes but that’s coming as the roster improves. For those who think physical traits can overcome roster deficiencies we all witnessed how Mahomes looked under pressure that Bryce faced for most of his rookie year, we saw what happened with Stroud in similar circumstances.  None of us were creating posts proclaiming Bryce as the next Brady but we can’t just sit idly while thread after thread is created continuing with the  anti Bryce tropes  instead of supporting him and just letting him continue to develop.

      To me Bryce's ceiling is his backup, Andy Dalton, in his prime.  Sure, he may get us some winning seasons and may even get us to the playoffs on occasion, but with an early exit.  To me he doesn't have what it takes to be elite and it takes an elite QB to consistently get deep into the playoffs.  He's not Jackson, he's not Mahomes and he's not even Allen.  In an organization like Philly, he possibly could have what it takes to make a deep run, but let's face it...Philly is well oiled machine and and we are a GMC Grimlin.

      If he was he would still be in the league.... Cam never learned to play QB without relying on his athletism and rocket arm.
