Quote:Well currently Luck is #12 in ranking and RGIII is #17 and has a won/loss record 1-3. Coming out of college, being drafted #1 overall Couch, Russell, Carr, Smith, Bradford all had the same expectations. You can think you know what these guys will do, as those experts did who drafted CArr, Smith, Bradford, Russell, Couch, Palmer, Newton et. al. did but until they suit up you don't KNOW.

 

Tanking is for losers. Anybody wanting to tank for the #1 pick is a loser. The OP showed you it doesn't work the majority of the time.

There was no "Stop the Hustle For JaMarcus Russell" Campaign.  Or a "Let us be bad lord, for Sam Brad Ford" campaign.  

 

For years the problem with this team was winning games they had no business winning.  They didn't so much 'win' the games, as 'not lose' them.  This hurt our draft position -- and made the team think that it was closer than it really was.  Made the fans think we were closer than we really were.

 

I don't want to 'not lose' games.  I want to win them.  Our team is unfortunately bad enough to earn the first pick.
