Nah, we've already won too many games to have a top 5 pick. We're probably slotted somewhere in the 7-15th pick range. Look at it this way.
Carolina - worst record 2-12
Cincy, Denver - 3-11
Detroit, Buffalo, Arizona - 4-10
Us, San Fran, Houston, Dallas, Cleveland, and Minny(5-8, will be either 5-9 at the end of tonight or 6-10, prob. gonna be 5-9) at 5-9
Now that's already 6 teams ahead of us that have a worse record. 3 of those teams, Detroit, Buffalo, and Arizona have a shot at finishing with the same or worse record than us, but I don't think we'll catch Cincy or Denver, and we have to deal with complicated tiebreaker scenarios for the teams with the same record as us, so in the end we're looking at anywhere from the 7th to 15th pick (Most likely somewhere between 7th and 12th, I just say 15th in case we beat Jacksonville or NY. I doubt we win both though, although it's def. doable. If we do win both, we finish 7-9 and then we're lookin at anywhere between 12th-20th.
I'll just go ahead and make a prediction that we go qb in the first round. It's time to get our own franchise qb and there are plenty of good candidates in this year's draft.
