What does the game between New York Jets and Cleveland Browns mean?
How will the results of tonight’s game affect the Jets standings?
NFL: Houston Texans at New York JetsVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsThe New York Jets play the Cleveland Browns on Thursday.
After the Jets’ win over the Chiefs, he dropped from the 6th overall pick to the 9th overall pick.
What happens to the Jets’ draft position if they win or lose this week?What if the Jets lose? If the Jets lose, their record would be 6-10.
That would put them in a tie with five teams from 5th overall to 9th overall. Importantly, the tie is based on strength of schedule (SOS), which the Jets have at .514.Currently, the only team with six wins is the Chicago Bears, who have a record of .467.
The Jets won’t drop below that at the end of the season. The only way to trade points with the Bears, who currently have the eighth pick, is if they outperform the Jets.
That means the Jets have a chance to move up in the draft if one of the current five-win teams wins the game.
Those teams are the New York Giants (SOS .514), Tennessee Titans (SOS .525) and Los Angeles Chargers (SOS .525).
Whether the Giants finish the season with a higher SOS than the Jets at the end of the season remains to be seen, but a win over the Titans or Chargers could push the Jets higher in the draft.
For tank fans, the Jets beating the Titans, Chargers and Bears is the surest way to improve the Jets’ draft position, moving them to the sixth overall pick in the draft.
If the Giants win and their SOS is higher than the Jets on the weekend, the Jets select them with the 5th overall pick (at least until the last week of the season).What if the Jets win?
If the Jets win, they would have a 7-9 record. That could put him in line with a team that has picks 8-15 in the draft.
Again, this tie is determined by strength of schedule, with the Jets at .514.The Bears are currently the only team with a win against the Jets.
However, as mentioned before, the Bears SOS is so much lower than the Jets that a Jets win would make it impossible for the Jets to throw the Bears in the draft order even if the Bears win.
A win with the Jets would tie them with a team that currently has seven wins. These teams are:
Atlanta Falcons (SOS .420), New Orleans Saints (SOS .435), Green Bay Packers (SOS .475), Las Vegas Raiders (SOS .486), Denver Broncos (SOS .490). ). ) and the Minnesota Vikings (SOS number .510).
In that case, each team would have a lower schedule than the Jets, so finishing the season with the same number of wins would put them ahead of the Jets.
Importantly, the only team that can have a lower SOS than the Jets before the end of the year is the Vikings.
Because every other team is under .500. This means that if the Jets win, they will drop one spot for each team they don’t beat this week.
The Packers and Vikings play each other this week. So, if the Jets beat the Cleveland Browns this week, the Jets could drop below 14 points.
What can happen in general? If the Jets lose, they will own the No. 5 and no. 9 until the results of the final week of the regular season are announced. If he wins, he falls between picks 9 and 14.
That means the Jets will have a pick anywhere from the top five to the middle of the first round after this weekend.
What that means is 1,700 for the 5th overall pick, 1,100 for the 14th overall pick and roughly the value of a late first round pick based on DraftTek’s trade value chart.600. (Difference between 5th overall pick and 14th pick) 31st pick. surveyWould you trade a late first round pick to the New York Jets to beat the Cleveland Browns? NotJava
