The Patriots no longer sit at the same table as the two-win teams, and it’s caused New England to drop down the 2025 NFL Draft board.
The Patriots earned a 19-3 victory over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday. It not only marked New England’s most complete victory of the season, but caused the group to drop from No. 1 in the NFL draft order to outside of the top five.
Ahead of “Monday Night Football” between the Miami Dolphins and Los Angeles Rams, here’s a look at the current top 10, per Tankathon. The order is made up of overall record and strength of schedule. The lower a team’s strength of schedule win percentage, the better their draft standing.
1. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-8, .478)
2. New York Giants (2-8, .525)
3. Tennessee Titans (2-7, .503)
4. Cleveland Browns (2-7, .522)
5. Las Vegas Raiders (2-7, .525)
6. Miami Dolphins (2-7, .438)
7. New England Patriots (3-7, .459)
8. New York Jets (3-7, .491)
9. New Orleans Saints (3-7, .491)
10. Carolina Panthers (3-7, .494)
The top of the board looks much different than last week after the Patriots, Saints and Panthers all earned wins. Those three teams previously were first, third and fourth in the draft order.
