Our Draft Pick Scenarios

Minnesota doesn't (thanks to green bay). That's why we win the tiebreaker if we end up with the same wins as Minnesota. But Minnesota only has 3 wins so far so they would have to win (and Browns lose) for the tiebreaker to come into effect. I'm not sure about Jax but I'll take his word for it..

Adam Schefter Just reported the Draft order as 1. Colts 2. Rams. 3. Vikes 4. Browns and 5. Jags.

You can't really identify strength of schedule yet either until the season is over. It is based on where teams are after 16 games not 15.

This draft order I posted was from the Cleveland Plain Dealer and ESPN Stats...so it's accurate.

True, but I am sure that the draft order given was tentative, i.e. what it WOULD be after 15 games....but obviously subject to change after the 16th game.

The current draft order from ESPN:

1. Colts (2-13)

2. Rams (2-13)

3. Vikings (3-12)

4. Browns (4-11)

5. Jaguars (4-11)

6. Buccaneers (4-11)

7. Redskins (5-10)

8. Dolphins (5-10)

9. Panthers (6-9)

10. Bills (6-9)

11. Chiefs (6-9)

I've been looking for this all day. thanks for at least starting the discussion.

So, assuming Indy and St. Louis both lose.... is their strength of schedule even close?

Would Indy definitely be drafting first if they tie?

Yes, but then Indy has the more "winnable game" vs. the Jags where the Rams play the Niners. So, who knows?

I would love to end up with the 3rd overall pick.

to counteract my sadness when I realized Atlanta's pick would be at least #22, if not higher.

True, but a first round pick is a first round pick. Plenty of talent left on the board..

dj_illness

we picked, what #5 last year?

and we missed out on AJ Green and Patrick Peterson.

(we drafted well, but one of those guys would have been nice).

drafting at #22 (or higher) just increases the potential for sadness/2012 anger and jealousy.

Doesn't matter where the Browns draft, they will screw it up just like the last 20yrs

The picked at #8 last year. If they picked at #5 either Green or Peterson would be here. Only when those prime players were gone did they decide to trade down.

dj_illness

thanks.

again, we've played the draft well the past few years, but I cry every time i see a PP/AJ Green highlight.

and there have been several.

We picked at #6 not #8 last year and PP hasn't done well this year except on on special teams.

dj_illness

Mr. Buffalo,

how have our special teams done this season?

discuss while i watch PP kick returns and cry. Several times.

Compare PP's total touchdowns this season to our offenses' total.

cry with me.

dj_illness

PP- 4 touchdowns

Browns- 21.

(1 return TD)
