FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- A look at what's happening around the New York Jets:
1. When winning hurts: A meaningless season finale? Not exactly.
While the Jets are locked into third place in the AFC East, their draft position could swing dramatically based on the outcome of Sunday's games. They could go as high as fifth or as low as 12th.
At 6-10, the Jets currently hold the eighth spot. If they beat the New England Patriots, and the Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings (all 7-9) lose, the Jets probably will drop to 11th, possibly 12th, based on the strength-of-schedule tiebreaker.
