With five games remaining in the NFL’s regular season, here’s a breakdown of the race for the No. 1 overall selection in next April’s NFL draft:
- Cincinnati Bengals (0-11): Being winless certainly gives them the edge, but finishing 0-for-16 isn’t written in stone. That takes a special kind of bad and wins against the Jets (Week 13) and Dolphins (Week 16) wouldn’t shock me.
- New York Giants (2-9): The G-Men may not be able to catch Cincy, but they could certainly hold their current position by losing to the Dolphins (Week 15) and Redskins (Week 16).
