Coaches and players are never promised next season. How hard of a sell to the Atlanta players and staff do you think it would be to get orders from above to lose on purpose when they've had such a great season? These players play on 50% pride and 50% talent. There is no way on God's green earth that a team that has Super Bowl aspirations even REMOTELY considers the NFL draft to be even of minuscule importance in the grand scheme of things. They're trying to figure out ways to win football games, not lose them on purpose. The mere thought is an exhibition of ignorance regarding how NFL teams approach football games.

If you asked Richardson himself if he would trade the first overall pick for wins in the final two weeks of the season, he would slap you in the face for suggesting he wouldn't take the wins without even thinking twice. Same for John Fox and the coaching group. Same for everybody that has a spine enough to ever be involved with the NFL. You can't make it up there without a sac full of piss and vinegar and a total hatred for losing. That is the fuel teams use to win.

ok...

tell that to the Colts in 1998 draft.

Who knows maybe Fox will pull the unexpected stomping of a far superior opponent tradition that always happens in our down years.

he NEVER does it to traditionally good teams. he has only done it to seasonally good teams. Think Vikings as opposed to steelers or eagles or colts.

so he has no chance of beating the steelers, and no chance of beating the falcons should they not rest their starters.

      So.... you're admitting he's never going to be the type of QB who can drag his team to victories on a consistent basis? Because in today's NFL, the teams that are constant contenders have QB's who can put up those kind of games will their team to wins when needed. If Bryce was anything near as amazing last year as the Bryce defenders try to insinuate he was, we'd either have won more games or his stats would have been better, if not both. Yes, he showed significant improvement over the last 2 months of the season.  Yes, he had a few clutch  moments/throws/drives in that span too. BUT... It's also very much a true statement that on the whole, he was still AT BEST an average QB during that time period.   And for a QB who was touted as being a PG who can get wins without elite talent around him because of how he sees the game, that's just not good enough, sorry. And none of that is to say he can't do that this year, especially after we gave him a weapon like T-Mac and hopefully an improved XL and Coker.  But stop trying to say he was this amazing QB to end the year who has proven he can (and should) be considered a long term solution as a franchise QB, as it's just not true.

      In what way is that remotely the same thing as I'm saying here? First things first, comparing QB's to any other position is just asinine to begin with.   Second, you're trying to imply the exact opposite of what I'm saying here, so it just doesn't make sense. I'm saying if you remove the players that teams haven't committed to as their long term QB solutions yet, Bryce is the last player ranked in this set of rankings, that's all.  But sure, go ahead and try to make some weird convoluted equivalent for my love of T-Mac (who btw, you'd probably only need to take away 12-15 WRs for me to rank T-Mac #1 in a dynasty format, just sayin, lol)
