7-8 will still be a successful season

#56

Quote:I'm not trying to troll, I'm just thinking about draft history. Remember the game the Colts lost to the Jags that solidified their rights to the top pick where they selected Luck over RG3? If they had stolen a meaningless win there, the entire makeup of their franchise changes and they miss out on a generational prospect. What good do the wins do for a team that outweighs the value of getting a potentially generational prospect?
 

Luck is an extreme example. As you say, such a prospect only comes along once in a generation (Elway was the previous one).


 

Let me also point out that Houston managed to lose enough games to get the first pick in 2014. They took Clowney instead of Bortles. A good GM beats a good draft position every time.
