With Eagles playing Cards............one team goes to Super Bowl and we move up, since both had worse records then ours.

Cool!

I guess by a similar logic we would benefit from a Charger win.

Edit: Oh wait. That would probably hurt our second round trade pick by more value than it would help our own picks.

Thumbs up Patriots draft order bumped up one spot
Patriots draft pick improves - Reiss' Pieces - Boston.com

Patriots draft pick improves

Thanks to an astute e-mailer, our good pal Josh, the following nugget is passed along:

With the Eagles (9-6-1 regular-season record) and Cardinals (9-7 regular-season record) meeting in the NFC Championship game -- which ensures that one of them will be in the Super Bowl -- the Patriots' draft position has improved by one spot to 23rd overall.

Draft order is determined by regular-season record, and the 11-5 Patriots were initially projected to draft 24th. The Eagles were initially projected to pick 22nd and the Cardinals 21st.

There is one exception, however, as the Super Bowl loser (regardless of regular-season record) picks 31st and the Super Bowl winner (regardless of regular-season record) picks 32nd.

Thus, the Patriots bump up the spot.

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "

He will be.

There should be some outstanding players still available at 23 though due to all the underclassmen coming out. And a possible OT run.

Creator of the Pats must draft Jason Verrett in 2014 no matter the cost fanclub.

Go Chargers this week, go Ravens next week.

Such a joke that 1-30 is based entirely on record, and that a playoff team can pick before a non-playoff team....
