Hard to believe the Giants could fall out of the Top 6 - it would require 2 Giants wins and one of the seven 4-6 teams losing out and the Giants losing a tiebreaker.
The draft order tiebreaker is strength of schedule. This is based on games happening this year, not last year.
The SOS based on games played so far is not necessarily of interest, as it includes irrelevant games for which both teams will have played the same opponent before the year ends. The only relevant games in an SOS comparison between two teams are games they don't have in common, and one can just total up wins in those games rather than calculate the SOS percentage.
The total wins are given in parentheses - the team with smaller amount is trending toward picking ahead in case of a tie.
1. CLE 0-10 (NYG 94 CLE 95)* [NYG can get 40 more, CLE can get 43 more]
2. SF 1-9 (NYG 59 SF 60)* [NYG can get 26 more, SF can get 28 more]
3. NYG 2-9
4. IND 3-7 (IND 70 NYG 76)* [IND can get 38 more, NYG can get 38 more]
5. DEN 3-7 (DEN 58 NYG 59)* [DEN can get 23 more, NYG can get 27 more]
6. CHI 3-7 (NYG 62 CHI 72)
Seven teams are at 4-6
* = includes automatic pickups from future games (a more refined calculation). The numbers in brackets indicate possible pickups from future games. Pickups are bad if you want to pick earlier.

Just a feeling. They can stop the run and they will get a win
this season. Not that it would change the draft order but stil...

Resting your hopes on the Browns is the definition of insanity
Yes there are many needs, you don't solve a 2-9 team in 1 offseason. But you want to avoid the 14 years of Dave Brown, Danny Kanell, Kent Graham, Mike Cherry, Kerry Collins before Eli. Get the QB first, this is the biggest lever in any football team. CLE traded down from Wentz to accrue picks, great job, wait where are they?
Indy IS a worry but unless they think Luck is not toast and/or Brissett is the answer even if he is, they go OL.

And Broncos have Fins, Jets, Colts.
We will end up with an OL whos blind in one eye
