So looking at the teams and standings im seeing the Foreskins/WFT demise as being our only hope to get in.

 Big problem is they have a 5-2 conference record which almost makes it impossible for us to catch. 

They have the Boys twice and the iggles twice and the Giants left.  I think we are phucked, what say you?

We're a 54 yard last second FG away from 0-2 vs the Lions.

Playoffs?! Playoffs?!

No.

I think if I ever get to the point of wanting my team to
lose, I hope I just move on with my life and take up some other hobby I can
enjoy.  I’d be curious to know the odds
that a shitty team dramatically improves via a single draft?

It's different because it's Bill but the Pats turned things around from last year. Bengals have too

The bills made a big jump the year they took their QB

As did the Vikings from 08 to 09...

Vikings may have blown it not taking Mac Jones or trying harder for Fields.

Difference now is that the Vikings biggest weakness is D. This years squad is average on their very best Sundays.

Maybe, but QB isn't our issue which will make it tough to bounce back in one draft unless we hit in our first 3 picks. That's another thing that frustrates me with Zimmer, the lack of trust in rookies to play right away

Davis Mills (drafted one pick after Mond) also has looked… kind of not terrible?… for the Texans. He has multiple 300 yard games including one versus the Pats. They just named him the starter for the rest of the season. 

Might not mean a thing long term but kind of interesting. I know some of the draftniks around here liked him coming out.

He has been ok considering the roster they have. It's a weird time in the NFL where outside of the first round everything is a crapshoot and tends to fall into luck and the situation they fall into. Maybe Mond becomes the guy? We wont know for some time though. Use this draft to address needs that we will have beyond next year and see how things go
