Current Draft Order
 

Since GB lost, we are now at # 5. And due to SOS, if we beat Detroit, we could fall all the way to 10.

I think we could still get a very good player at # 10.

I really don't wanna test that theory. :lol:

This is depressing. Go Green Bay! Go New York! Come on, San Fran!
Blah, my day is ruined.

And if you have no shot at winning, you play to get better. A top 5 pick can help in that regard.

wow. I can't even begin to guess who ends up losing in a game between us and detroit.... Basically the same team.

It better be us. That drop from the top 5 is FAR!!!!!!!!! lol

Actually, according to "the most popular draft site in the world", we are currently tied with the Jets for third, taking into account both record and strength of schedule.

I am gonna stick with CBS sportsline over them. They were wrong before and changed it to what sportsline had. Plus sportsline is a more reputable source IMO. But we are still top 5, and still need to lose to Detroit either way.

If you go by CBS's version, then by losing out, we will leap-frog either SF or Houston depending on who "wins" the "Bush Bowl" when they face each other in the last week, b/c our SoS is less than either of theirs, so far.
By losing to Detroit it would definitely improve our draft postition two-fold: One being the loss, of coarse. And two, it would add the Lions record to an already poor SoS.

You are absolutely right. We COULD leapfrog the Texans or the 49ers. That's why I am hoping for this loss to Detroit. I think the Texans will beat the Niners, and there is NO WAY the 9ers take Leinart, AND there is no way they pass on Bush. GB plays Sea and Chi, but Sea could be resting starters at the end of the year. It all hinges in Detroit beating us.

And they said people who want the team to lose are not "true fans".

They also have us tied with the Jets for the 3rd pick.

It appears the Huddle Report and NFL draftcountdown are for the full season when factoring SOS. So if we lose that last two and the Jets beat Buffalo the last game of the season and Houston beats the 49ers we will have the 2nd pick. Woo Hoo

How can they take full season though, if the season isn't over? Unless they already know who is gonna win the last two games of the season for every team.

if you look at the Huddle site for example they say full 16 game season and thats where I got that from.

and by the way NFL draft countdown has the same exact order and sos

Ok, since they can't possibly know what the SOS will be year end, I am gonna stick with CBS Sportsline who updates it weekly.

I agree, I was only pointing out the sos at each site and using it for my scenario. Did not mean to cause a riot. Hey Halo, I won't get banned for this crap will I. Just kidding.

:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

Technically, according to CBS Sportslines figures, we are actually tied with the Jets for 4th place. If I remember correctly, when both teams have identical records and SoS, the tie-breaker is then decided by a coin-flip.

Well, the season isn't over yet mjf, so noone's flipping any coins yet. We still have Tampa at end the year who has a winning record, and still need to lose to Detroit.
