Using Walter Football Mock Draft estimate as reference. Jets went 6-10, so the first team that went 7-9 will at least be 11th.

Teams that are already 7-9: Tampa Bay, Carolina, Pittsburgh, New Orleans.

Miami goes 7-9 if they lose to New England, San Diego goes 7-9 if they beat Pryor and Oakland.

So, the 7-9 teams will be from picks 11-16. How does the order of that work?


Just found this, so I'll try to narrow down the range a little bit.

We are a higher #'d pick than Tampa or San Diego. Carolina would pick after us.

Worse 15th, best 13th.

We have the highest strength of schedule, so we will draft 14 if Miami wins or 15 if Miami loses

Goddamn even at 15 we have a great chance to get a difference maker

Mid 1st are plenty of difference makers, I just hope we don't reach due to a position of need.

This is such a stacked defensive draft

I don't think we will have to worry about that unless the top OT is still available...

Rams in position to beat Seattle and move behind us with the tie.

The 7-9 teams will pick 11-15 with the tie being strength of schedule. I'm going with the Saints having the strongest SoS, putting them at 15 for the draft. (Pittsburgh is 8-8)

Why are the Panthers ahead of us on that list? They swept us and have the same record so I can't imagine why they'd have higher draft position than us

Head to head doesn't matter for draft order

Which would make our pick in rnd 2 (currently forfeited) the 11th pick in rnd 2, #43 overall. Any chance we get that pick back?

Wait what? Then how are the differences between us, panthers, and Bucs figured out?

It's done by strength of schedule (your opponents' win/loss record) with the lowest SoS getting the highest pick.
