As fun as this has been we really should find a way to lose to Atlanta.


I swear some of you “fans” would give up a Super Bowl just to have a higher pick in the ensuing draft.

The Saint will draft between 8th and 12th. These are the teams that we compete with for draft position

8 New Orleans Saints (6-10)
9 Kansas City Chiefs (6-10)
10 Cincinnati Bengals (6-10)
11 Atlanta Falcons (6-9)
12 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-9)


Assuming the Saints win, then they will finish no worse(or better, depending on your perspective) than 9th position.

I think the Bengals(vs Browns) and Chiefs(vs Raiders) are likely to win, assuming Tampa Bay loses, you end up with either a 4 or 5-way (depending on what the Falcons do tonight vs the Rams) tie, I think, like that, the Saints end up 10th overall.

If Tampa Bay wins, and all else remains the same, I think the Saints end up 9th.

There you go, my very unscientific and certainly questionable take on the matter.

If we're not careful, the Saints will be back to the usual 8-9 seasons in no time at all.

When you aren’t picking for a QB, picking 8-10 isn’t that bad. Will get a premium talent at a position of need.

Yeah, this can't be emphasized enough. You only tank if you need a shot to pick a viable QB prospect. Once you have one, you need to spend every moment building a winning environment.
