I can tell you the difference in what you can get between 13th and 18th is this: Last year Branden Albert, the lineman most around here wanted, went 15th. Chris Williams OT went 14th.... and Gosder Cherilus OL went 17th.

Not to say that there is any drop off in talent between the picks, my point is that if we were at 18th pick last year, that's 3 offensive linemen difference (between 13 & 18)

It seems a lot of times to me that the team picking before you always seems to want the same player/position, but you never truly know what you are getting anyway.

Also, it may be easier to trade the 13th pick than the 18th. Like last year, Jonathan Stewart RB went 13th. There is more likely to have a top 10 projected player still be there at 13 compared to 18. But like I said, this is information for those who DO care where we pick, if you don't that's fine.

Oh... GTripp, I totally agree about the difference between playing Packers & Seahawks or playing Lions & Rams. GB & Sea were deep in playoffs last year, StL & Det aren't really close right now.... they are MUCH better targets.

and Beemnseven... thanks a lot for the comments. I like when I can have something to root for in other games so that Sundays are even more entertaining. Plus, I REALLY was wondering how much Sundays results could effect us for the draft & next season!

No there's not. There's no material difference when it comes to cap impact of drafting 13th compared to 18th. It's not something you'd worry about.
