If the season ended today, the New England Patriots would be the No. 3 overall pick of the 2025 NFL draft, per Tankathon.com.
The Patriots have lost their last four straight games, including Sunday’s 30-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, and currently sit with a 3-11 record.
The New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders are the only teams ahead of the Patriots right now. The Jacksonville Jaguars, Carolina Panthers, Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns all sit with a 3-11 record.
A win could drastically alter where the Patriots sit in the draft pecking order, assuming the other teams continue to lose. New England has a tough three-game slate with two meetings against the Buffalo Bills and one against the Los Angeles Chargers.
It has been a tough season for the rebuilding Patriots, but a difficult upcoming schedule could lead to a better draft position for a team looking to land an impact playmaker.
