The biggest week of the year?

The outcome of today's football games will determine the order of picks in the 2009 draft.

By my calculations we are currently in the 8th spot. Dependent on the outcome of today's games, we will be picking as low as 5th in the draft, and can pick no higher than 10th.

The games of "interest"---

49ers vs. the Redskins We want the 49ers to WIN

Jaguars vs. the Ravens We want the Jaguars to WIN

Oakland vs. the Bucs We want the Raiders to WIN

Seattle vs. the Cards We want the Seahawaks to WIN

Cleveland vs. the Steelers We want the Browns to WIN

Green Bay vs. Detroit We want the ..... to WIN (lol)

Obviously, there are many scenarios that can play out, but these are the only ones that have any impact on our draft selection, FYI

In addition to the obvious improved choices when picking 5th over 10th, the "draft-pick value chart" in the event of a trade back would be the equivalent of a free mid-round second-round pick. (The exact "value" is the 50th pick in the draft)

The biggest week was the Titans game. That's my opinion.

I also want the pats to lose, and the jets to win, so we can at least get an extra 2nd round pick

And I should revise my "biggest game of the year" title to:

Re-re-re-re revised biggest game of the year.

I'm trying to find the positive in any/all outcomes, as tough as that is.

...And I'm with you on that Pats/Jets thing, krazy

It doesn't matter what draft pick we get
Ted Thompson will trade it away anyway!!!!

Even if he will trade it away, a 5th is worth way more than a 10th, so it's still a win-win for us... or win-Big lose if we manage to lose against the Lions.

I just hope the Jets win, NE loses, and everything favors us to get a higher draft pick. And obviously, that we win.

Maybe it's because I'm a dick, but there is no way in hell I want to see the Jets in the playoffs. go dolphins.

also, if we lose today, my head is going to explode.

I don't care what anyone else does.
I want the Packers to win this game.

I'm afraid the Packers will get a lead and McCarthy will go into his "play to not lose mode".
That tactic rarely works out for the best.
