    I think those projections were probably taking into account the reach for Bryan Thomas the year before and the Jets continuing search for DT's with Josh Evans facing suspension again.

    everybody, its ok. i predict andre woodson's stock rising after the combine. he'll move into the top 5. atlanta took a very athletic quarterbakk once b4, and even tho that proved to be a muck up, they'll do it again with the third pick. so gholston may be available!!!!

    I saw him going in the late first to other teams, too. The Jets just happened to be one I remembered more.

    Here's at least one mock draft having him going 22nd.

    I'm just going by everyone else saying we're picking 6th, specifically SNY.

    I counted up the records.

    I have Oakland's opponents at 130-126. Then KCs at 131-125. I have ATL's at 132-124. I have ours at 132-123. If Tennessee loses, we'll also be at 132-124.

    (I know KC/OAK/ATL played TEN too but they also played IND so those will even out).

    Check my math. I could be dead wrong.

    So you're saying if Indianapolis beats Tennessee, we'll potentially be in a coinflip spot with Atlanta if your math is right?

    Yes it would be a coinflip if the Jets and Falcons both finished with opp W-L of 132-124.

    Hopefully you are right. Woodson is a very viable prospect to rise because with the tools he possesses his upside could be huge

    8 over 500 is 132-124... jets are at 132-123 right now... If Tennessee Loses, it's 132-124, +8.

    Honestly the chances that all five of these guys go in the top 5 in April would surprise the life out of me. Somebody will have a bad bowl game or roll an ankle at the combine, or somebody like Woodson/ Matt Ryan will have a stellar combine/workout and will jump up into the top 5 and thus one of the "fab five" will fall to 6 where we stand...

    You are right. I thought Cleveland had 9 wins. They have 10. There is my 1 miscount.

    133 wins or 134 wins for our opponents..

    My mistake.... Apologize guys

    This is kind of a blessing. We'll get one of the top 5 guys.. We'll pay them 6th money instead of 3rd money and that's a big difference.

    I'm confused, so is it win/loss differential or winning percentage of opponents?

    If it is winning percentage, the Jets can't catch the Falcons.

    Total win/loss records of the opponents. If you play them twice, they count twice.

    Since everyone has played the same # of games, simply count of the # of wins by the opponents.

    OAK = 130
    KC = 131
    ATL = 132
    NYJ = 133 or 134 depending on tonight.

    these are the other factors

    • Strength of schedule for the previous season is the first tie-breaker for teams with the same winning percentage.

    • Divisional and conference records are the next step in the tie-breaking procedure.

    • As a last resort, a coin toss is used to determine the order of selection for teams with the same
    winning percentage.
