    According to Gil Brandt, we are least likely among the worst teams this season to see a real turn around next season..

    "Going from worst to first in the NFL is tough.

    Parity might rule the day, but even teams with high draft picks and plenty of salary-cap space face slim odds when it comes to mounting complete turnarounds in one offseason. The success rate of 2013's last-place teams -- none made the playoffs, and five finished in last place again in 2014 -- bears that out.

    Of course, while this season's last-place teams have a tough road ahead, each features some element that provides reason for optimism. Below is my take on 2014's cellar dwellers, ranked according to their chances of pulling off the elusive worst-to-first trick in 2015" ...

    Its simple math really, which teams are close to have 4-5 impact players on each side of the ball? Those are the teams that win regularly.

    We only have 3 impact players on offense, and maybe 3 on defense. Typically you dont get lucky enough to draft more than 2 impact players per draft, so unless we trade back we'll only be able to get 2 quality starters with the #2 and #33 picks. After that its a total crap shoot drafting guys who can start their rookie years.

    If we can do what the Rams did when they traded the #2 pick, we can close the gap a lot quicker.

    We will suck next year no matter how well we do in the draft, for many reasons.

    If we could pull the highway robbery that the Rams committed with the RG trade, I'd be very happy lol.

    Yeah no doubt bro, I think all of us would be crazy happy. I doubt it happens though to be honest. I just hope they don't flop with such a high pick

    They're not that bad. They went 6-10 with Austin Davis and Shaun Hill as their QBs.

    Put a good QB on that team, and they're ready for the playoffs. Put a good QB on our team, and we're ready to still suck.
