Current Draft Order / Week 13 Opponent
1. NY Jets 0-11 .589 SOS / vs Las Vegas
2. Jacksonville 1-10 .555 SOS / at Minnesota
3. Cincinnati 2-8-1 .541 SOS / at Miami
4. Dallas 3-8 .488 SOS / at Baltimore
5. LA Chargers 3-8 .492 SOS / vs New England
6. Carolina 4-8 .535 SOS / bye week
7. Philadelphia 3-6-1 .520 SOS / vs Seattle (Mon Night) and at Green Bay
8. Washington 4-7 / .468 SOS / at Pittsburgh
9. Detroit 4-7 .506 SOS / at Chicago
10. Atlanta 4-7 .531 SOS / vs New Orleans
11. Houston 4-7 .549 SOS / vs Indianapolis
12. Denver 4-7 .565 SOS / at Kansas City

These teams are all playing better teams in Week 13. Don't expect many wins from this group.

Week 13 - Best "Realistic" Scenario for Dallas
1. NY Jets 1-10
2. Jacksonville 2-10
3. Dallas 3-9 - If we lose and Cincinnati upsets Miami, we could up one spot.
4. Cincinnati 3-8-1 - Kinda wish they would have beat the Giants. Not sure they'll win another game.

Dallas can move into the 3rd draft spot if Cincinnati wins and both Dallas and the Chargers lose. Dallas also needs to maintain their slim SOS lead over the Chargers.

Week 13 - Worst "Realistic" Scenario for Dallas
1. NY Jets 0-12 .589 SOS
2. Jacksonville 1-11 .555 SOS
3. Cincinnati 2-9-1 .541
4. LA Chargers 3-9 .492
5. Philadelphia 3-8-1 .520
6. Washington 4-8 .468
7. Dallas 4-8 .488
8. Detroit 4-8 .506
9. Atlanta 4-8 .531
10. Carolina 4-8 .535
11. Houston 4-8 .549
12. Denver 4-8 .565

Dallas' SOS vs Washington has flipped over the past month. However, that should get closer again over the remaining weeks of the season. However, it would be in Dallas' best interest to remain a game behind (ahead?) of Washington.

They Cowboys Bengals game in a couple of weeks is looming large. A loss there will be huge for team tank.

I am almost certain it will but NYJ, Jacksonville, and Cincinnati drafting in that order. Look at their schedules. The wild card is the last game of the year when some teams have locked up their spot in the playoffs and rest players.

I think the Cowboys may get one more win but I can also see them bringing Martin and Erving back for week 17 for a stupid meaningless win over the Giants. It's just typical of how Jerry Jones does things. At the same time, I don't think beating the Bengals is a sure thing for Dallas. A loss puts them in the driver's seat for the 3rd pick. If they get a 4th win then it get's dicey. Then Denver, LA Chargers, the Lions, Falcons, and a few other teams

I don't think anyone doubts Jacksonville will take a QB. The Jets will probably take a QB. Cincinnati is going to draft the best OT in the board to protect their franchise QB. All this talk about them taking another QB in the top 3 picks is nonsense. It is not 1989 anymore.
