How is the first pick in the NFL draft determined if more than one team has the worst record in the

there's a good chance that new orleans will lose to tampa bay and green bay will lose to seattle this weekend, putting them at 3-13 for the season. if houston beats san francisco, that would result in 4 teams with a 3-13 record. how is the reggie bush sweepstakes and i guess the rest of the draft order determined?

According to an article on espn.com, if the Texans, 49ers, Packers, Jets and Saints all end up with a record of 3-13, strength of schedule will step in. The Saints have the weakest SOS, so if there is a 5-way tie, New Orleans gets the first pick. After them comes Green Bay, then the Jets, Texans, and finally the 49ers. Of course, the Texans could just lose and make the #1 overall pick scenario a lot easier.

Put simply, if four teams are at 3-13, then the first pick goes to the team whose opponents have the worst record. Presumably, a team that loses to a bad team is weaker than a team that loses to a good team, so they get to pick first.
Here is how the first pick and the rest of the Draft Order is determined:



? The team with the lowest winning percentage at the end of the previous season drafts first in the NFL Draft.



? The rest of the teams are placed in order from lowest winning percentage to the highest.



? The Super Bowl winner drafts last, even if they do not have the highest winning percentage.



? The Super Bowl loser drafts next to last.



? Strength of schedule for the previous season is the first tie-breaker for teams with the same winning percentage.



? Divisional and conference records are the next step in the tie-breaking procedure.



? As a last resort, a coin toss is used to determine the order of selection for teams with the same winning percentage.



? If a playoff and non-playoff team end the season with the same winning percentage, the non-playoff team selects before the playoff team regardless of strength of schedule.
