Draft

At what point, if ever, do you start to sand bag and hope for a high draft number for the upcoming draft?

now....

You don't for two reasons:

 

A.) Theres no way its good for the players on the team to attempt to lose. This causes players to become disgruntled and leave.

 

B.) Most top-10 picks are overpriced for what you get anyway.

Never, ever play to lose! EVER! Now, it is apparent that the Buffalo Bills will finish 5-11 or 6-10 on merit, so draft somewhere around 8-12 and trade down with a team that "has to have" the next Superstar and take excellent player(s) that make a team whole! That's the plan, and I'm sticking with it.

 

Note/ disclaimer: IF the Bills run off 5 or 6 wins, I'd love that too!!!

I really cant say that the advantage of picking 3rd vice 11th or 12th is worth intentionally dropping games....

At what point do you start hoping that Miami wins the rest of their games so that not only we get a better pick but they get a worst one?

 

or

 

At what point do you start hoping that some of our better players get injured(but only a little) because they are trying too hard to win?

 

How could you watch a game if you were hoping we lose?

If we lose a game, I don't mind the thought of "Oh, well at least we get a better pick" attitude but.....how can anyone go into a game hoping we lose?

It baffles me.

Never! Yar

Never... Losses create an atmosphere of losing. Win at all costs.
