Which teams on their schedule are different than ours? I need to know who to root against for the SOS. Lol.

TB and NYG need to lose.
Atl and Wash need to win.

Cardinals aren't drafting Bosa if they have the #1 pick. They already have a stud edge rusher in Chandler Jones and another quality pass rusher in Markus Golden. They are much more likely to go with Ed Oliver, Quinnen Williams or Jonah Williams. Their interior DL and their entire OL is a disaster right now.

It's hard to be certain. But i'm hoping this is the case if they do end up at #1 and us at #2. Jonah Williams seems like a smart move for them.

I'm guessing they trade back. Josh Rosen is also garbage from what i've seen this year. I think everyone gets fired if they keep rolling with him.

• For the playoff teams that got eliminated in the same round, their order is determined by regular season record.
• Overall ties are then broken by strength of schedule, which is a calculation of the combined record of all of a team's opponents in that year, with divisional opponents counting twice.
• The next tie breaker would be record against conference opponents and then divisional opponents.
• Coin flip will occur if tie still exists.
• After the first round, the order is determined by revolving the teams with the same records, with the team that just picked first of the group picking last in the next round.

I'll get one right today, ha! The third bullet is wrong. It's divisional or conference tiebreakers (divisional for AZ). The first divisional tiebreak is head-to-head.

Seriously, this is so crazy confusing. I could have SWORN I heard there is a 'head to head' that comes into play at some point. I just didn't know at what stage. And thanks for the resource.

The first tiebreaker is strength of schedule. The team with the weakest SOS among tied teams gets the higher first round pick. The 49ers and Cardinals are currently tied in SOS, so it moves to the next tiebreaker. When there is an applicable divisional or conference tiebreaker, that is applied. The 49ers and Cardinals are both in the NFC West, so divisional tiebreaker applies. I don't know if it's head-to-head and then divisional record, or if it moves straight to divisional record. Either way, the 49ers claim it, with Arizona sweeping the head-to-head series, and the 49ers sitting at 0-4 in the division compared to the Cardinals at 2-2. If the 49ers beat the Seahawks and Rams and the Cardinals lost their final two to them, it would move on to record in common games. If all the divisional and conference tiebreakers don't clear it up, it then moves to a coin flip at the NFL Combine.
