The 2011 NFL Draft order is set for picks Nos. 1-20 following the Seahawks' win over the Rams Sunday night. Picks 21 through 32 will be based on how the playoffs shake out -- the Super Bowl champion selects No. 32, the runner-up No. 31 and so on. Teams that are eliminated in the same round are ordered based on the same criteria as picks 1 through 20, starting with overall record, then a series of tiebreakers if necessary. The Carolina Panthers, who finished 2-14 in 2010, will make the first selection in April's draft. The complete draft order (* indicates position will be determined by playoffs): 1. Carolina (2-14), 2. Denver (4-12), 3. Buffalo (4-12), 4. Cincinnati (4-12), 5. Arizona (5-11), 6. Cleveland (5-11), 7. San Francisco (6-10), 8. Tennessee (6-10), 9. Dallas (6-10), 10. Washington (6-10), 11. Houston (6-10), 12. Minnesota (6-10), 13. Detroit (6-10), 14. St. Louis (7-9), 15. Miami (7-9), 16. Jacksonville (8-8), 17. Oakland (8-8), 18. San Diego (9-7), 19. New York Giants (10-6), 20. Tampa Bay (10-6), 21. Seattle (7-9)*, 22. Indianapolis (10-6)*, 23. Green Bay (10-6)*, 24. Kansas City (10-6)*, 25. Philadelphia (10-6)*, 26. New York Jets (11-5)*, 27. New Orleans (11-5)*, 28. Chicago (11-5)*, 29. Baltimore (12-4)*, 30. Pittsburgh (12-4)*, 31. Atlanta (13-3)*, 32. New England (14-2)*. Source: NFL FanHouse
Someone please explain to me why the Dolphins pick before the Rams. Both teams are 7-9 so the tiebreaker is strength of schedule. The Dolphins' SOS is .539 and the Rams' SOS is .449. The team with the worse SOS picks first; hence, the Rams should pick first. I double checked. And I believe I have a lawsuit.
At least we get something ou of yesterdays embarassment. Cmonnn AJ Green, even if it requires a trade.
An easier to read version of the list: 1. Carolina (2-14), 2. Denver (4-12), 3. Buffalo (4-12), 4. Cincinnati (4-12), 5. Arizona (5-11), 6. Cleveland (5-11), 7. San Francisco (6-10), 8. Tennessee (6-10), 9. Dallas (6-10), 10. Washington (6-10), 11. Houston (6-10), 12. Minnesota (6-10), 13. Detroit (6-10), 14. St. Louis (7-9), 15. Miami (7-9), 16. Jacksonville (8-8), 17. Oakland (8-8), 18. San Diego (9-7), 19. New York Giants (10-6), 20. Tampa Bay (10-6),
3rd pick... They'll probably screw it up somehow. It's a good thing we didn't have the 1st pick, they never would have shelled out that kinda $$$$ or he would have just refused to play for the Bills. It will be interesting to see how they pick.. better not be bpa , draft needed position please
Unless Locker is there at 15, which I doubt, I see no other QB worth taking in the middle of round 1.
I could see Blaine Gabbert hovering around that point come Draft Day. Granted he's in a gimmick offense (Not like that's made much difference in the last few drafts) but his size alone will make teams salivate.
