Redskins were sitting pretty until they screwed around and won a couple games in a row!
George Allen argued that a quality veteran was worth more than a college prospect and his winning percentage is pretty good evidence that he knew what he was taking about.
Pre-salary cap. Good veterans are too expensive. Washed up end of career guys (Adrian Peterson, sitting on a couch when he got the Redskins call, Frank Gore, Lesean McCoy) are sometimes worth the flyer. Older guys get injured a lot. Injuries also count to the salary cap.
Healthy young players on a rookie contract with experienced journeymen is what works. New England does very well with very few veteran stars.
Head to head doesn’t come into play ? Redskins beat Dolphins by one …..
strength of schedule
Don’t worry about the Falcons, as they will certainly mess things up and win a few of their remaining games and drop 10-12 spots .. just like last year. All because they have a coach that thinks he can still salvage his job.
I actually think Quinn is ok, but last year’s nonsense at the end of the season dropped them from the #3 pick to #14. Just insufferable given those wins meant NOTHING. That is exactly how a team stays mediocre.
how is Seattle 32? didn’t the ravens beat them? shouldn’t that be the tiebreaker? if not then why are the patriots picking 28th?
Strength of schedule is the first draft order tie breaker.
GIANTS will hopefully lose out and fire their coach AND their GM. Gentleman is a clown. Very clearly should have traded OBJ a year earlier. He could have had a QB in addition to Barkley. But then again, you reap what you sow. Should have never canned Tommy C.
I was a huge fan of Coughlin but it was time for him to with 3 losing seasons in a row, and 4 seasons of no playoffs. Granted Reese didn’t spend big money until after he left which maybe have made the difference of him staying.
Not sure now if they beat Miami and Washington how the strength of schedule looks for draft position but yes Shurmur and Getty both need to go. They should hire a proven coach with a winning track record this time.
