Giants to pick 12th/2014 schedule is set

ray in arlington : 12/29/2013 7:29 pm
The Giants schedule in 2014 will be

Home: ARI, SF, HOU, IND, ATL
Away: STL, SEA, JAC, TEN, DET

The Giants will pick 12th. Note that I am not applying tiebreak to the 4-12 teams or to TEN and DET.

1 HOU 2-14
2 STL (from WAS) 3-13
3-7 JAC 4-12
3-7 CLE 4-12
3-7 ATL 4-12
3-7 OAK 4-12
3-7 TB 4-12
8 MIN 5-10-1
9 BUFF 6-10
10-11 TEN 7-9
10-11 DET 7-9
12 NYG 7-9

TEN and DET beat the Giants on SOS. STL will either finish 8-8 or lose the SOS tiebreak to the Giants.

This is coming from me, not the NFL, but I've done all the checking I can.

Houston takes a QB
Rams take Matthews
Jacksonville takes a QB
Cleveland takes a QB
Atlanta takes Clowney
Oakland takes Cyrus
TB takes Watkins
Minnesota takes Mack
Buffalo takes Watkins if available or Evans

I am hoping Lewan falls to NYG.
We could miss out on the top 3 OTs, but have a chance at Mosley,  
yatqb : 12/29/2013 8:30 pm : link
one of the top WRs, one of the other good OTs, or even a good CB prospect.

I'm hoping that we take care of our needs (OL, RB, TE) in FA, then load up in the draft on BPAs.

We'd better sign Joseph or we'll need a really good DT. Hopefully Reese realizes that.
wish overthecap

Then we could see right away whether tonight's game matters.

Second round  
SJGiant : 12/29/2013 8:37 pm : link
It looks like I am wrong. Since St. Louis finished with 7-9 too, they get the tenth slot in the second round and we get the 13 th. I am searching the internet to confirm the draft rotation.
The cap number for the 12th pick last year was $1,877,036.

SJGiant : 12/29/2013 8:42 pm : link
Looks like the example from Walter football shows that the teams move up one slot in the next round until they get to the top of the list with teams in the tie. Therefore, the giants would pick 11th in the second round . Sorry for the mistake.

Not sure if this means anything but when you look at nfl.com standings it has us at 11th

I don't think the future rounds work that way...  
Milton : 12/29/2013 8:48 pm : link
They only flip-flop them if a coin toss is required to break the tie in round one. And that only occurs if the strength of schedule is equal for two or more teams.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that's how it works, which means the Giants will be drafting at #12 in each round, but round 7.

Standings are based on division and conference tiebreakers.

Draft order is based on strength of schedule as the first tiebreaker.

So they are not necessarily consistent. You can finish 4th and pick behind the 3rd place team in your division.

Put me down for Antonio "Tiny" Richardson at 12 for the Giants.

Allen Robinson  
Giantfootball025 : 12/29/2013 9:01 pm : link
could be the best WR in the draft if he declares. I'm unsure of what to draft at 12 I think I'm favoring Mosley only because our LB's sucked something awful outside of Beason. But, going by the past the Giants don't seem to value the LB's like other positions. WR seems like a luxury pick we can't afford to make. OL seems like the safest. And protected Eli should be the highest point of emphasis this offseason.
Amaro has the size to turn into an elite two-way TE...  
Dunedin81 : 12/29/2013 9:02 pm : link
Ebron is significantly lighter, though he could add weight.
Looking at overthecap percentages  
ray in arlington : 12/29/2013 9:07 pm : link
tonight game cannot change the draft order. The closest teams in the tiebreak are CLE with 132 SOS wins, and OAK with 133 SOS wins. OAK will pick up another win from tonight's game, so CLE takes the tiebreak. Everyone else is separated by at least 3 wins.

Amaro does have the  
bob in tx : 12/29/2013 9:09 pm : link
size but has never been asked to consistently block and using him as in line TE takes away what he does best. I like him but that position is an afterthought in TC's offense though half the league would love to have him. Just don't see it unless there is a wholesale change in offense. There could be a bidding if Amaro was there at 12.

I mean it can't change draft order for the teams with worse records or the same record as the Giants (the top 13).
Taking an OT  
Jon in NYC : 12/29/2013 9:29 pm : link
here will probably be a no brainer. There should be a great talent at a position of massive need. Matthews, Lewan, Kouandjio, Robinson. Richardson. Someone will be there that they want.
cameron erving too  
oipolloi : 12/29/2013 9:36 pm : link
it is possible he could wind up being the best of the bunch

Richardson is considered a 2nd round prospect...  
Milton : 12/29/2013 9:39 pm : link

Giants are not taking Amaro or Mosely  
oipolloi : 12/29/2013 9:41 pm : link
I would be shocked if either one was taken in the top 15

Lewan and Robinson could very well both be there when the Giants pick. So, unless they just don't rate those two highly, I think the pick is going to be an OT. This is a very strong draft for OTs

Duned, it would be foolish for us to keep letting go of really good players that we drafted high and coached up to be impactful players. A young guy who is part of our run-stopping core should get his money right here, imo. Hankins can play alongside him or sub for him at times to keep both fresh. It's not like we have a ton of young DTs...Jenkins and Patterson aren't getting younger, and Kuhn doesn't seem like a lock to make the roster next year.
Draft order (derived from overthecap.com)  
ray in arlington : 12/29/2013 9:46 pm : link
This is set regardless of tonights result
1. HOU
2. STL (from WAS)
3. JAC
4. CLE
5. OAK
6. ATL
7. TB
8. MIN
9. BUF
10. DET
11. TEN
12. NYG
13. STL

I have CHI at 14 and PIT at 15 based on the overthecap percentages. CHI has 2 fewer SOS wins and will pick up only 1 for the DAL-PHI game.

After that it depends on the PHI-DAL result as based on overthecap DAL would pick 16th if they lost tonight.

That's reasonable and I think highly of Joseph, I just worry he's going to command $7-8 mil a year and I'm not sure he's worth that, as valuable as he is. But to say Hankins can step in and fill that specific role (maybe) is not to say that it won't take a bite out of our depth. We were pretty healthy at DT this year, it is unreasonable to expect that to continue. If Joseph leaves we need to draft or sign at least one more guy, preferably someone who can play a serviceable one-technique.
Why take that risk when we have LJ right here and know his play?  
yatqb : 12/29/2013 9:53 pm : link
Sign him; it's all about the guaranteed dough anyway. We'd likely structure his contract with a large enough bonus that that it wouldn't hurt the cap in the next few years.

Milton : 12/30/2013 2:03 am : link
True enough, but Richardson is a guy who was previously talked about as a 1st round prospect, but has been falling in the eyes of the draftniks. Pugh was a prospect who started the draft season as a mid-round prospect and made a late April surge in the eyes of the draftniks.

There are only 20 non-playoff teams, so being in the top 15 isn't exactly a great bonus for not making the tournament. I'd be much happier top 10 (ok, this "game" I'm playing is dumb because I'd obviously be even happier with the #1 overall position {sigh - the whole thing just sucks})
