The path to the 2nd pick (4th obtained)

Don't overlook how incredibly stupid Jimmy Haslem can be.

We could use benefiting from stupidity for once.

If the trade back is past pick 7 or so there should be 2 extra firsts minimum. 

 

No doubt. And we should absolutely take a deal like that.

Regardless of the result of the MNF game between the Giants and Patriots tomorrow at the end of week 13 there will still be 8 teams with 3 or fewer wins.

 

Give the Giants some hope of winning tomorrow on the back of firing Shane Bowen and all the Patriots OL injuries.

 

Yes this idiot right here thought the Giants would put up a decent fight today.

 

The Giants defense has been completely toothless without Carter and Thibodeaux.

 

Unless there is a huge turnaround after week 13 there will still be 8 teams with 3 or fewer wins and 4 teams with 2 or fewer wins.

Wonder if Oregon QB Dante Moore losing his OC has any bearing on whether he will decide to enter the 2026 Draft.

We are pretty awful. It's truly remarkable they won a game lol. I'm glad I can say I was there to see it.

My favorite part of the season so far was hearing Callahan after that win say "Boys, if we just keep playing like that we'll start stacking wins!" after the flukiest win I've ever seen. 

[AussieTitanFan08]

The Titans schedule continues to look more absurd by the week they now have 12 games against teams with 7 or more wins and 1 of the other 5 games is against the 6-6 Chiefs.

 

Also through week 13 the Titans have only played 2 games against teams with less than 7 wins (Cardinals/Raiders).

I went to the game with my best friend's total degenerate Chinese girlfriend. She doesn't know a damn thing about football. Anyway we were drinking before the game and she says she'll bet 300 on the Titans +7.5 . I try to persuade her that this is a terrible idea. So then I had a lot to drink before the game and it occurred to me that it's such a bad idea that it could be fun so I bet Titans +7.5 as well. Plus I'd be pissed if I didn't take it and she won, so why not?

 

Anyway I'll never forget how dead that bet looked right out of the gate and then the Cardinals had all day to throw a knock out punch. It felt like the game was 21-6 forever and there was technically hope but you knew the haymaker was coming. I remember when the Arizona running back was running down the field and told her we lost. Then the craziest things kept happening lol.

Haven't seen the ESPN FPI and the Athletic Playoff Predictor Analytics align this closely before.

 

The Athletic currently gives the Titans a 52% chance of getting the #1 pick, a 95% chance of getting a top 5 pick and a greater than 99% chance to get a top 10 pick.

I wouldn't limit how far you trade back its all about getting the best trade package possible and if that comes from the Rams/Steelers/Cardinals so be it.

 

Should they end up with the #1 pick the one non negotiable for me is getting a 2027 1st round pick in any trade back package (I would prefer a future 1st over a second 1st round pick in this draft).

They should hold out for both. Browns or Jets, whichever team is willing to give the additional first this year and in 2027.

I personally believe Haslem is dreaming of getting Manning somehow

[Bongo59]

With the Oilers and Titan history I am sure they screw up and win and not get the top pick.

We'll pull something like last year's Patriots.  What are the odds our schedule next year is one of the easiest in history?

[charleytolar]

Imagine the pressure on the Saints to select Manning if he declares. It'll be like Bud and Vince Young again....

If it's the jets I actually would prefer to get their 1st in 2027 and either the Dallas or Indy first in 2027 rather than another first this year.
