Dumb NFL Draft Order Selection rules...

[LotsOfOuts69]

As we know, the NFL draft order is a hot topic because of the possibility of getting Reggie Bush.

Everyone knows that the team with the worst record gets the best pick.

However, if two or more teams tie with the worst record, a tie breaker is applied.

The first tie-breaker is strength of schedule. Meaning, the worse the overall record of your opponents, the higher your pick.

The 2nd tie breaker is (worse) division record, but this only applies if you are tied with a team in your division.
The 3rd tie breaker is (worse) Conference record, but that only applies if you are in the same conference.

HEAD TO HEAD IS NOT A TIE BREAKER.

So Houston fans, if you beat S.F next week, they dont automatically have the tie breaker over you, in fact, right now Houston oppopnents have 128 wins while S.F opponents have 131. ( How Dumb is this )

Actually, if Houston wins next week, N.O has the inside track to Reggie Bush, with only 124 opponent victories currently (this includes the Jets-Pats game tommorrow which adds 1 win either way).

The Jets are screwed for the #1 pick if N.O doesnt win next week. The best they could do is TIE New Orleans for strength of schedule ( i checked it out ).

So even if they did tie, what would the tie-breaker be?

Well the strength of schedule is the same, they're not in the same division so that doesnt apply, their not in the same conference so that doesn't apply..

How about since N.O. beat the Jets, the Jets get a higher pick?

NOPE!! THEY WOULD FLIP A COIN!!!!

Call Tails Herm, call Tails.
