The Tennessee Titans' Path to the First Overall Pick.

The Tennessee Titans just won in a thrilling 31-29 performance over the Cleveland Browns, increasing their record to 2-11 on the season. Winning is nice, but a top pick in the NFL draft is also nice. Here is what the Titans need to do to find their way back to the 1.01:

Lose Out

First off, the Titans need to lose every game remaining on their schedule. If you don't win games, you can't find your way up the draft order. This is as close as a must as possible, as the Titans are now one of three NFL teams with only 2 wins. Losing out is very possible, as the team's remain schedule is the 49ers, Chiefs, Saints, and Jaguars. The Saints game is likely the one that will be the closest, as it is at home in Nissan stadium against another bottom ten team in the NFL.

If the Titans lose out, they are guaranteed a top 2 pick because the other two in competition play each other on December 28th.

Raiders and Giants need to win

In the case of a tied record, the 1st overall pick goes to the team with the easiest strength of schedule, which is not good for the Titans. The team has had amongst the hardest strength of schedule in the entire league, so they can not afford to be tied with another team.

The Las Vegas Raiders remaining schedule is the Broncos (losing at the time of writing), Eagles, Texans, Giants and Chiefs. Out of these games, the Giants are the most winnable. Currently, the Raiders have the highest odds to get the pick due to their strength of schedule.

The New York Giants remaining schedule is the Commanders, Vikings, Raiders, and Cowboys. All of these seem winnable from a good game, other than perhaps the Dallas Cowboys.
