CJPearl2 Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 Can anyone update us as to the Bills draft position after today's loss?
d_wag Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 That being said, go Cleveland! 547055[/snapback] and titans.....and rams

MadBuffaloDisease Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 and titans.....and rams Yep. Actually the Titans have a shot because the Jags will likey rest their starters. The Rams I don't know since I expect the Cowboys to be eliminated after Washington wins, but the Cowboys will still play for pride.
/dev/null Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 That being said, go Cleveland! 547055[/snapback] The Browns just picked Boller with under a minute left. Boller had a very Losman-esque 15/36 for 151 yards and 2Int
BillsFanForever19 Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 I believe it's 11th. 547048[/snapback] http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/features/draftorder.html How do you figure?
Mikie2times Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 We will have the 8, 9, or 10th pick pending a couple games. My guess would be 9th at this point. For those that care had we lost the Bengals game it looks like we would be drafting 4th.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/features/draftorder.html How do you figure? It all depends on SOS. I thought I saw another draft order where the Bills picked 11th.
/dev/null Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/features/draftorder.html How do you figure? 547144[/snapback] depends on the strength of schedule chart you use This one has us shows we have one of the strongest schedules in the NFL, and the strongest schedule of the 5-11 teams. This would put us at either 10th or 11th, pending the outcome of the Rams game *EDIT oops, you prolly want to see the link http://www.fftoday.com/sos/sos.htm
JimBob2232 Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 Actually, we are 10th. We can get 9th if tenesse wins, and some permutation might exist for us to overtake arizona in SOS (currently .504 to .500). http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/features/draftorder.html How do you figure? SOS changes with every game. in this link it was .504 to .500 in favor of Bufallo, now its in favor of arizona.

This would put us at either 10th or 11th, pending the outcome of the Rams game Eh? The link above has the Bills as the 2nd-easiest SOS of the 5-11 teams. And after today, it's the worst (.500 for week 16=120-120 opponents record, added to the 4-12 Jets' record, gives you 124-132 = .484). The Rams play the Cowboys which raises their SOS (.488=117-123 plus 10-6 [if the Cowboys win]=127-129=.496), so the outcome of that game doesn't matter. So the Bills have at worst the 8th pick in the draft, unless Tenn beats the Jags, and then it's the 7th. So go Titans!!

I have a draft prediction program that always you to enter in projected wins and losses, and it does the rest. After running just about every possible W/L scenario this week Buffalo stacked up really well against teams the 5-11 teams. The only 5-11 team that could be ahead of us is the Rams.
JimBob2232 Posted January 1, 2006 Posted January 1, 2006 The Bills will pick between #7 and #10, depending on what happens in the late games. JDG Oh, completly forgot STL has to play yet...but yes, between 7 and 10 is likely (could be 11th if somehow detroit passes us in SOS) So...Bottom line...rooting Chart for this afternoon/tonight Ten over Jax StL over Dal SF over HOU This gives us #7 HOU over SF gives us a coin flip with ARZ for 7/8 EDIT: HOU over SF (with above scenario) gives us a 3 way tie with DET and ARZ for 7/8/9 (assuming MIN and PHI win)

So whether the Rams win or lose doesn't matter, and there is no coin flip with ARZ because they have a much higher SOS after facing Indy. Again the Bills are at worst 8th, and could be 7th depending on whether the Titans win.

Again the Bills are at worst 8th, and could be 7th depending on whether the Titans win. It does matter...because the rams have a HORRIBLE SOS. While what you say is true, the rams are still well below .500 SOS. If they win today they have 6 wins and will fall below buffalo. One week does not a season make.
