I have us losing to Philly week 1. I have us going 2-2 into the BYE. I have us going 11-5 at best.

Your predictions are not deterred by the fact that the draft has not yet happened?

I don't see any RG3/Russell Wilson like impacts coming out of this draft for any team.

Well then, we should just cancel the draft, since it has no effect on teams' performances.

If the draft did have an effect on teams' performances, making predictions before the draft would be pure arrogance. But as we know from your post, this is not the case.

I think he was only speaking on quarterbacks. There will always be impact players from the draft.

For the most part yes, it was the QBs. But occasionally a JaDevon Clowney, Von Miller, Deion Sanders, Warren Sapp, Julius Peppers will come out and cause a major impact on their team (Clowney is considered the Andrew Luck of defense).

I don't see any big defensive guys in this draft that will be game changers causing their team to win enough games to basically do a flip like they were the season before. And as you already mentioned, the QBs in this draft are awful. I don't see any of them having an Andrew Luck, RG3, Russell Wilson impact. Hell I think best case Geno smith can have a Tannehill impact. Like people have been saying, this draft is full of depth and solid players from the mid first onto the 4th round. Whereas last years draft had major talent in the top 15 picks, then fizzled out.

(Simple terms this draft has talent thats going to win you 2-4 games more to your record [depending on the team that could be good]. Last years draft had talent that could win you 4-8 games as we saw with the colts.

my god dan. We can also not predict injuries either. Nor have we seen training camp. We can't see what big moves and trades will occur before the season starts with Revis or Fitzgerald. Nor can we see who everyone is picking as a winner who will end up flopping. So what we should just get rid of predictions as a whole right? No one should predict anything right?

No one is arguing the giving up of predictions altogether. But by your own logic above, any prediction made on April 18 (rather than waiting for August) is foolhardy.

Or just fun conjecture for bragging rights at the end of the season?

I will always pick the Skins to go 19-0 and one day I'll be right.

In your face <no_one_in_particular>!
