Currently they hold the #76 pick
We have pick #92 in the 3rd round
The value from swapping our 4th for their 3rd is basically equal to our own 3rd round pick value.
Falcons @ saints
Raiders vs broncos
Bears @pack
We are rooting for teams on the left to win
So we can move up to pick #73 instead of #76 from Vikings - Hock Trade
Edit- if Jets win @ Patriots then vikings would have same record as them as well
So could get to pick #72
We need to beat the Vikings next week
(And rest starters lol)
Love ya Jman, but its so refreshing not thinking or caring about the draft!
Actually, no.
We only need one of the three teams on the left to win. The reason is that when teams are tied, they rotate in each round one spot down.
Atlanta](Atlanta Falcons | Tankathon) 7-9 .438 5.0 .423 Lost 1
Chicago](Chicago Bears | Tankathon) 7-9 .438 5.0 .463 Won 2
Las Vegas](Las Vegas Raiders | Tankathon) 7-9 .438 5.0 .489 Lost 1
Minnesota](Minnesota Vikings | Tankathon) 7-9 .438 5.0 .507 Lost 3
Minnesota has the hardest schedule and their SOS will only improve by playing the Lions.
Let’s say the Raiders beat the Broncos (entirely feasible with Jarrett Stidham at QB and Pierce playing for the HC job).
Even if the Falcons lose to the Saints, and the Bears lose to the Packers, the Vikings will remain No. 3 in the rotation which would go as follows:
Round 1
Falcons
Bears
Vikings
Round 2
Bears
Vikings
Falcons
Round 3
Vikings
Falcons
Bears
Just need the Lions to take care of business and one of the three teams ahead of the Vikings to lose (or just win).
Lions would get pick No. 73 vs. the likely No. 128 pick they’re giving up. On the Rich Hill chart, 46 points difference of the equivalent of No. 89 overall.
When you add in that the Lions received No. 55 [101 points] for No. 81 [55 points], for a net of 46 points, the Lions essentially received the equivalent of two late 3rd Rd picks for Hockenson.
Or, if viewed in the aggregate, a late 2d Rd pick, No. 59 overall, for Hockenson.
Notwithstanding Hockenson improved performance with the Vikings and likely Pro Bowl selection for 2024, the Lions saved the $9.3M five year option guarantee and didn’t have to sign him to a $68.5 Million deal, and obtained his replacement (a better TE IMO, for $59.5M less).
A win for the Lions.
Good post ^
I stand corrected
Oh you’ll care soon enough
We can get as low as pick 72 if we beat Minnesota and there are 3 teams tied with Minny at 7-10 (best case scenario)
We can get as high of pick as 77 if Minnesota wins (worst case) as their SOS of schedule would have them at pick #15 for round 1. Pick #13 after rotating picks by round 3.
Right now we have pick #74 technically with rotating teams
I can see us falling to #75 if we lose…or pick #76 if Seattle loses and we lose
Jets winning, Vikings losing, Falcons lost.
That’s pick 73. If Bears lose. If Bears win its pick 72
I’m pulling for Da Bears but GB would be a handful for Dallas.
Pick No. 73 overall it is.
