Where does a 6-10 division winning team draft?

JohnB : 11/28/2014 10:29 am
With all the other 6-10 teams or in with the other playoff teams?
with the playoff teams.

The 7-9 Seahawks drafted 25th in the 2011 draft after beating the Saints in the Wild Card round.
one of the worst NFL components

You are actually penalized for doing well in the playoffs. A 9-7 team shouldn't be picking after 12-4 teams. I don't care if they did win the SB.
The NFC SOUTH

has really hurt what a traditional draft range might be for us at 6-10. We could possibly be drafting just before(or after) a division CHAMP!
I still project an 11-13 range.
What a year to be penalized for sucking 2 years in a row.

No depending on if they win a game in the playoffs, they best they would be is the 1st playoff team drafting, not at the 6-10 slot.

I'll take 6-10 and the 32nd pick in the draft anytime!
whoever wins the NFC South

will be drafting #21, unless they win a playoff game. If they lose in the Wild Card round, they pick #21, lose in the Divisional, they pick #25, lose in the Conference Championship, they pick #29, and if they lose in the Super Bowl, they'll pick #31. Win/Loss percentage is meaningless as far as regular season standings go. If you're in the playoffs, you pick among the playoff teams. I can't believe we're even having this discussion, though when you look at the current standings and remaining schedules of the teams in the NFC south, it's hard to imagine any of them winning more than 6. I think Carolina will win it at 6-9-1. Then they can send Shayne Graham a gift basket for missing the 34 yard field goal at the end of OT.
Thanks for the correction guys

I was caught up in the comparative records and lost sight of the automatic playoff spots.
