It took me a good bit to wrap my head around it but essentially boils down to three groups 1) non-playoff teams, 6 wins or less 2) non-playoff teams, 7 wins or more 3) playoff teams Each one of these three groups is then "put in a hat" and given a draft position based on the random selection of that group. For example, the Browns group had 11 teams that met the criteria. The Raiders as I understand with a 6-10 record actually "won" the lottery and got first pick each round. A) I get the grouping, as a attempt to keep league competitive. B.)how bout each team in group gets 1 paper in hat per loss? 21 minutes ago, TexasAg1969 said: 4.61 40 as a CB? Underweight for his height? Dodged a wasted pick since it meant 2nd round to get him. Rather hang onto that Me too. Wonder when the media will get to how many teams bid a 3rd? that's his worth imo. Started as a WR, with not much experience at CB position.Watched Beal against Darnold, and the normal showed up.Beals can press cover,but when he loses, A) his team gives up a bunch of points B.) Beals stats are not great but his 1 on 1 coverage numbers are. Tough to guess on his next step up level..If BB Calhoun sticks as 4th/5th CB? we missed on nothing here imo..

Who knows why they don't do it that way, I've looked for a reason and haven't found much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Gordon is now freed from rogers hit list.Now all the refs can do is throw a flag for tackling him running open down the field. Maybe Roger can call it the Flash Gordon rule 👽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason tanking in the NBA is so effective is that parity is almost non-existent. We know going into the season what teams are gonna be good and bad, so from the jump teams are already in tank mode. The NFL has way more parody, and way less games, for that type of system. The NBA does that in part so a team like the Cavs (let's be real) don't totally tank from day one, although it doesn't work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on Gip, NFL teams do tank- they're just less obvious about it. Can you agree the Sashi Browns set the bar on tanking?
