[Celtics_Champs]

Teams tied or worse than Oakland

Miami (7-8)
St. Louis (7-8)
Seattle (6-9)
Tennessee (6-9)
Washington (6-9)
Minnesota (5-9)
out of reach:
San Francisco
Arizona
Cleveland
Houston
Detroit
Dallas
Buffalo
Denver
Cincinnati
Carolina

If Oakland loses next week, we're looking at a 12-16 pick. Which would be nice after a wild season. Not great, but nice.

Hopefully there is a good OLB or 3-4 DE in the 16 range left when we pick. Robert Quinn would be awesome.

Colts take care of business. Raiders at 7-8.

Theres nothing wrong with 15 range pick. The way the rookie salary structure works thats a decent place to pick. Especially when we have 2 more picks in the top 35. Carolina is locked in as the worst team now. We have the #33 pick.

Maybe we can now change the tone of this to a draft thread or merge it with a Draft Thread.

Finals standings and draft order are locked in for the non-playoff teams. As of now here's the order

1. Carolina (2-14) &
2. Denver (4-12)
3. Buffalo (4-12)
4. Cincinnati (4-12)
5. Arizona (5-11)
6. Cleveland (5-11)
7. San Francisco (6-10)
8. Tennessee (6-10)
9. Dallas (6-10)
10. Washington (6-10)
11. Houston (6-10)
12. Minnesota (6-10) +
13. Detroit (6-10)
14. Miami (7-9)
15. St. Louis (7-9)
16. Jacksonville (8-8)
17. Oakland (8-8)
18. San Diego (9-7)
19. New York Giants (10-6)
20. Tampa Bay (10-6)
21. Seattle (7-9)*
22. Indianapolis (10-6)*
23. Green Bay (10-6)*
24. Kansas City (10-6)*
25. Philadelphia (10-6)*
26. New York Jets (11-5)*
27. New Orleans (11-5)*
28. Chicago (11-5)*
29. Baltimore (12-4)*
30. Pittsburgh (12-4)*
31. Atlanta (13-3)*
32. New England (14-2)*

*Position depends on NFL playoff results
Patriots own this first round pick
& Patriots own this second round pick
+ Patriots own this third round pick

Raiders win the last game of the season @ KC, who I don't think was trying to hard cause they already locked up the division.

That makes them 8-8. Patriots will have their pick which is locked in at #17. Patriots also have Carolina's 2nd rnd pick, which is locked in at #33. Patriots also hold Minnesota's 3rd round pick, which is locked in at #76. Patriots also have their own first, second, and third round draft picks. So as of now we have 17, 32*, 33, 64*, 76, 96* in the Top 100. I don't see us keeping all of them and picking 6 players in the first 3 rounds on draft day, but hey, we are in great position to improve. The picks are pretty valuable.

After going 14-2 and hopefully winning the next 3 games (knock on wood) Patriots will be pretty hated on draft day. This team is set up pretty well for the future. We probably have at least another 5 years of Tom Brady as QBs can play until their late 30s. Back on track baby! The dynasty is dead? Long Live the Pats! Billicheck is immortal! Wonder when he calls it quits? Probably once Brady retires is my best guess.

A quick aside. Oakland became the first team to go undefeated in their division, and not win said division.

[Celtics_Champs]

Wait, how is Jacksonville ahead of Oakland. Didn't Jacksonville beat Oakland?

I know we're at 17, this just doesn't make sense.

Anyway, Seymour for 17th is a pretty good trade. Not a steal it coulda been, but it is right where BB wants it IMO. At least now we don't have to deal with the stress of BB trading out of the top 10.

Biggest steal was that Carolina trade.

We're certainly set up for quite the draft come April.

[Dirty Water]

I dunno I got that list online. Not sure if head to head plays into draft order.

Theres my answer.

Lame, should go Head to Head, then strength of schedule
