Usually, you can’t make it deep into the playoff race and have a high draft pick at the same time. But the New York Giants are in a position where they might break that rule. The team is still technically in the running for the playoffs as of now. If Washington loses, the game between the Giants and Cowboys will decide the NFC East. The winner of the NFC East will make it into the playoffs despite their losing record.
But the Giants, despite being in the hunt, still have the high draft position that comes with being a losing record team.
