The Patriots could potentially secure the No. 2 pick if they lose to the Jets and other results go their way, but a win could drop them to as low as the No. 7 pick. Currently, the Commanders and Cardinals are also in contention for top picks, with the Panthers having clinched the worst record in the league.
