A guess at draft order, as of 4:30 PM Christmas Day:

Based on my projections for Week 17 wins and losses (assuming Miami loses tonight), here’s what I project as the top 10 draft order.

1. Detroit 2-14
2. Oakland 2-14
3. Cleveland 4-12
4. Tampa Bay 4-12
5. Arizona 5-11
6. Washington 5-11
7. Minnesota 6-10
8. San Francisco 6-10
9. Houston 6-10
10. Miami 6-10
 
I think picking in the 9 range is results in a much better price/performance value than the top three, especially after the last draft's massive contracts.
 
1 Detroit 2-13 .529 like Texans- draft lineman 1st overall - OT Joe Thomas
2 Oakland 2-13 .546 finally take a QB with 1st pick - QB Brady Quinn
3 Cleveland 4-11 .533 want to pound the ball keep defense rested - RB Adrian Peterson
4 Tampa Bay 4-11 .542 Galloway getting older, Gradkowsli needs another weapon to spread d - WR Calvin Johnson
5 Arizona 5-10 .492 somehow defense has to stop teams late surges address defense w/ playmaker - DE Gaines Adams
6 Houston 5-10 .513 select top rated CB (@ the moment) - CB Leon Hall
 
here's the actual order:

1 Detroit 2-13 .529
2 Oakland 2-13 .546
3 Cleveland 4-11 .533
4 Tampa Bay 4-11 .542
5 Arizona 5-10 .492
6 Houston 5-10 .513
7 Washington 5-10 513
8 Minnesota 6-9 .475
9 San Francisco 6-9 .496
10 Miami 6-9 .538

You are a genius. A complete genius. My projection was based on who is going to win or lose in week 17. Do you think we are going to lose to the Browns? As negative as I've been, I think we'll beat the Browns. That'll make us 6-10 and based on SOS for the projected 6-10 teams, we'll draft at 9. You think you are a draft expert? I think you are a genius. You are soooo much smarter than I am, figuring out where we'd draft if the season ended today.

I sense some tension.
 
I suspect that a timeout is in someones future. Sure looks/sounds like a personal attack.
 
One minute I view the thread and see ****** and the next minute I see m o r o n. Confusing, eh?

Seriously, let's just step back, and breath. Losing hurts, but we just won over the Colts. Let's just have a group hug and be on with our posting.:ok:

Someone didn't get anything for christmas...

Whoa. Unexpected verbal assault post. At first I thought you called him a Mormon and I was confused 'cuz I didn't know they had them in Texas.

Just kidding.

Still, it's better than Vince Young updates during a Texans/Colts game thread.

Although that was funny too:
Player 1: "It is so relevant because blah blah blah and so I'm not going to mute"

Player 3: "Uh, I think player 2 meant that he just used the ignore feature on you"

Player 2: (Ignores Player 1)

Player 1: (Still doesn't get it)

FWIW my guess is we'll beat the Browns and pick around 9th, which is fine. Let the Raiders and Lions fight over #1. We have way stupider things to fight about over here in Texans messageboard land.

I don't know much about the browns and am certainly not saying they are good or anything but wow. it looks like they had a pretty tough schedule. 9 of the teams are either going or have a outside chance of going to the playoffs. we both played oakland..but they did lose to tampa bay..ouch.

I'm hoping we finish the season strong with 2 wins in a row. Any way you look at it We did just beat the colts and i'm thrilled. I kinda saw that happening and I kinda see us losing to the Browns...again. Hope not though.
