I think the common opponents tie breaker is only for divion and playoff seeding and isn't used for the draft, IIRC. We actually finished 3rd in the division because of the common opponent tiebreaker.
Edit* After reading the tie breaker procedures, it looks like we will draft 5th. We will also be playing Tenn at home next year and will be traveling to Cincinnati.
