2015 NFL Draft Order: Giants now have 11th overall pick

The New York Giants just can't seem to do anything right, and apparently that includes losing.

By winning Sunday's game against the St Louis Rams, the Giants find themselves in a five-team snarl at 6-9, and ultimately dropping out of their long-held 8th pick in the draft to the 11th overall pick. The Giants are tied with the Minnesota Vikings (8th), Atlanta Falcons (9th), New Orleans Saints (10th), and the St. Louis Rams (12th).

For anyone still hoping for a tank job to improve draft position, you can be angry at the Giants for screwing up and winning. Or, you can be angry a the NFC South for wrecking the bell curve.

When teams are tied, the exact order is determined by strength of schedule. The team that has played against the weaker schedule gets to pick higher. With every team in the division guaranteed to finish below .500, they will "Win" any draft tie breaker.

From there the picks rotate by round. If this draft position held true, the Giants would be picking at 10th in the second round, ninth in the third, and eighth in the fourth round.

At the same time, the Giants falling out of the top-10 in the first round might just be a blessing in disguise.

It looks as though the Giants will be picking somewhere in the 10-13 range. In that range, some prospects to potentially keep an eye on are Shaq Thompson (OLB, Washington), DeVante Parker (WR, Louisville), Shawn Oakman (DE, Baylor), La'El Collins (OL, LSU).
