I'm on to the Jets.

Yes you do, but at no point will I EVER willingly accept losses regardless of at what point in the season just for the sake of a draft slot. Never. Ever. If there is even a tiny thread of hope we can make the playoffs I am holding on to it. Then, even if eliminated, I will be there in the stands until the final seconds tick off the clock urging my Saints on hoping for victory. A playoff appearance may be meaningless to you, but it certainly is not to me. Nor is any win meaningless.

We are going to draft who we are going to draft. There's nothing any of us can do to change that. I see no value to me to even consider the draft until the day it happens and that is just to see who we will have to work with.
