Who are we drafting with the #5 pick in the draft?

DB40 and Rankins coming back mid season will be big, but it won't matter if we are 0-8.
We need to be at least 4-4 when they come back to have a realistic shot at the playoffs.

No, it won't matter but I seriously doubt we'll be 0-8.
We've lost 2 games by a combined total of 4 point's.
I know it sucks to have that feeling of despair on Sunday afternoon but I am pretty confident that the W's will happen. Of course, I am somewhat biased too...

Look back at 2014, lost to detroit by 1 point, lost to atlanta by 3 points, lost to san fran by 3 points.

All these "we only lost by 4 combined points" doesn't matter at all, we have lost by those margins for the last two years and this is now the third.

Teams that are going anywhere consistently come out on the right side of those games, like we did in 2010 with close wins vs bengals and cowboys.
