Patriots (3-13) Secure No. 1 Overall Pick in 2025 NFL Draft After Giants' 45-33 Win Eliminates Colts from Playoffs

Dec 29, 2024, 09:18 PM

The New England Patriots have secured the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft following the New York Giants' 45-33 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. With this win, the Giants ended their franchise-record 10-game losing streak but simultaneously dropped from the top draft position to fourth. The Patriots, currently with a 3-13 record, now control their destiny; a loss in their upcoming game against the Buffalo Bills would guarantee them the first pick. This development allows the Patriots to potentially select a high-profile talent, such as quarterback Drake Maye, or consider trading the pick for additional assets. The Titans and Browns are currently positioned second and third, respectively, in the draft order, both also holding 3-13 records.
