Whats the point? This way we get a better shot at a better player. Not only did you just hand the Buccaneers a competent Qb in Mariota, but we lost a top ten pick. For what, pride? What pride? This team lost all of it letting Carolina walk all over them in the dome. Losing to Atlanta for the division title last week, etc, theres at least 10 instances this season where they lost a lot of dignity as a football team.. This team needs to rebuild big time starting from the lines on both sides of the ball.

I'm not saying tank the game, but we were down late, just play the young guys and see what you have in them. If they won the game then so be it, but to have all our starters out there was just dumb. If Brees got hurt we'd have been screwed for a while. Maybe play some guys and use them as trade bait to get more picks because its going to take a miracle to fix this team even if we have what looks to be a cakewalk schedule next year. I don't like them tanking very much either but i also wouldnt care since its week 17 and we're out. Tanking more games then i see the issue. If you start tanking for picks say week 14 then i see the issue, in our circumstance, i dont see the issue.

Google the top 10 draft picks over the past 10 years. It's about as much a crapshoot as our draft position

I mean, I guess, but I'd rather at least have a better chance at a better player so we can make the best selection possible for the organization, but thats just me. To be honest it probably doesn't matter who we select since we suck at developing defensive players.

11. New Orleans Saints: Brandon Scherff, OT, Iowa

Finding a pass-rusher is certainly an option here, but with four D-lineman already off the board, I think the Saints simply go with the best player available, regardless of position.

Brandon Scherff is not only a nasty, bruising blocker who will give the team a new identity in the trenches, but he's capable of thriving at either tackle position or on the inside as a guard, a la Zack Martin.
