Though strength of schedule is on the better side in terms of accurate statistics, it's hard to make the realistic argument that we were better than Tampa this year. They won their division, killed everyone in their division, and beat us. While the quality of opponents they played was very clearly weaker than ours, they dominated in most of their wins which is something that we wouldn't have been able to do playing their schedule (though we likely would have done better than 9-7).
But subscribing to the assumption that Tampa was better than us, a perfect system would have use picking ahead of them in the draft.
Whatever though, 20th/21st doesn't really make a damn difference.
