WOW, the Chargers game could have HUGE draft implications.

A lot of things could happen after this Sunday's game. For instance. Say we beat the Chargers, this could happen. The Lions and Cardinals both play each other and both have 4 wins. The good news is, we would hold the SOS tiebreaker over both teams. The bad news is, if we win we are already guaranteed to fall 2 draft spots automaticially. A. Either the Cards or Lions will move up and B. Chargers hold SOS tie breaker over us so they would also move ahead of us, as a result we drop to the 7th pick.

But it doesnt end there. If the Titans lose to the Jets they would also move ahead of us, so now we drop another spot to pick number 8. Wait, there is still more. Cleveland currently holds SOS tie breaker over us, they play the Redskins and if they lose, you guessed it they also move ahead of us, Panthers then fall to number 9 overall pick. But wait, there is more...

The Saints also hold a SOS tie breaker over us, so if we win, they lose. We now pick 10th. The pain doesnt end there. The Bills, yep you guessed it, hold SOS tiebreaker over us as well. If they lose to the Seahawks and we win, we are now sitting at pick 11.

So to sum this up, if we beat the Chargers it is a real possibility we fall allllll the way to number 11 in the draft. Oh, lets not even start to think about the Dolphins losing to the Jags and the fact they also hold SOS tiebreaker over us which in turn would drop us to the number 12th pick. I mean they cant possibly lose to the Jags, right? RIGHT?!?

Im really torn. One win and we all but guarantee to miss out on Star Lotoulelei and Joekel, on the bright side im a big fan of drafting Keenan Allen or Lewan and i could see both of them being there at 12-15

Going all Natalie Imbruglia on us Alan

      Panthers signing WR John Metchie

      I tend to think that you're right, but fans can hope.  Metchie hasn't actually translated so far to the NFL for reasons we can point to, and others we probably cannot. This will probably be his best opportunity to stick and raise his value, obviously because of past chemistry with Young, but I don't think that fans can count on it based upon what he's done so far in the league. It would seem that he would've been given that opportunity in Houston, but they not only drafted one, but two receivers. Tells you how they valued him. Philly didn't blink when they traded him to the Jets who refused to tender him, so no one has really valued what he brings--not really. Moreover, Bryce is in the big boy leagues, now. He doesn't have time for sentimentality when it comes to security blankets. T-Mac and Coker are established.  That being said, chemistry can cause explosions under the proper circumstances, but I wouldn't count on Metchie being anything more than a sub-explosion at best.

      Beyond the locks, that's so gross, there is no reason Tremayne should be our 3rd (as I'm over XL and he shouldn't be higher than #4 on our depth chart this year), just no. It's why I was really hoping we'd just get rid of XL for whatever the best draft pick we can get for him is.  Then sign a true quick twitch guy to be our slot WR, and even then, still hope that Horn Jr might take that spot from them in camp anyways and turn that FA signing into our #4, with Moore as a special teamer who gets a jersey and then Tremayne as that last project.
