    What are you talking about? All of that lack of production is 100% on Peppers. Scheme is irrelevant. We'd do the same with a back up D3 safety. 

    ........ .......    ...............

    I'd be fine with us taking a FS to allow Peppers to play SS. If we take a premier talent like James that gives a lot of versatility with him and Peppers (and Kindred)

    I hear that Kindred is hurt and that they may have to put Peppers at SS....leaving, I believe Kai Nacua back at FS.

    That would be, interesting

    That tankathon website is great!  Here's how I like to summarize it.  Lets assume Pittsburgh beats Houston, then if...

    Colts beat Texans - Start at the #4 pick - move up one pick when either of these things happen...

    • Colts win in Baltimore
    • Giants beat Arizona AND Washington

    Texans beat Colts - Start at #9 pick - move up one pick when any of these things happen...

    • San Francisco beats Jacksonville OR LA Rams
    • Chicago beats Cleveland OR Minnesota
    • Tampa Bay beats Carolina OR Arizona
    • Cincinnati beats Detroit OR Baltimore
    • Denver beats Washington OR Kansas City

    So to me it looks like the most likely picks are #4 or like #7 or #8.  Colts/Texans obviously a huge game.

    If you assume that Houston loses both games, automatically Colts overtake them, so the order would be Cleveland - NY - Houston then Colts... As the Colts would overtake them (win the head to head). 

    Sweet way to put things up, anyway.

    Been pointed out- when it comes to the draft, it's SOS. Head to head only matters in playoff consideration.

    Then it makes no sense, because the Colts could end up 3rd in the AFCS and the Texans 4th, but the Texans pick would be #4 and Colts' #3, when the Colts ended the season ahead of Houston. I thought that the tiebreaker was SOS but keeping the tiebreaker of head to head between division rivals.

    We have plenty of 2nd round picks.  Let's just stay at 1 & 4 and see if Dorsey can bring us two blue chippers.

    Bingo... great way to grab a great player and keep the pantry of future picks full without moving down so far that all the high-impact guys are gone.

    Which one gets used and which one gets traded? No idea... all depends on how deeply Dorsey ends up in love with the darling of the QB litter.

    Or 1 and 12 plus a future #1 and get us three...

    Giants could move upto #1 to take Rosen. If Dorsey doesn't pick Rosen that's a no-brainer for us. Other mocks have us at Minkah and Rosen. And Josh Allen is rumored to be favorited by us, but i'm not sure of the sources.

    I've got someone in mind for us to trade for just for Tour. Screw the blind Crow and watch real speed & power. Got 'em into the playoffs with this today.😆

  • Josh Allen is being mocked to the Broncs at 7.

    That would suck royally.

    we need to take rosen at 1.

  • My preference is to take rosen at 1 and trade down at #4.  Hopefully we can get a good offer.
