NFL: 5 teams in the running for the No. 1 overall draft pick

We’re four weeks into the already exciting 2014 season, and we’ve seen plenty of highs and lows.

The Cincinnati Bengals, as you might’ve read, have established themselves as the cream of the crop. The edge-of-your-seat Philadelphia Eagles are making history, remaining undefeated. Ditto for the Arizona Cardinals — minus the “making history” part, anyway.

Though the season is still very young, those teams are among the true contenders of the NFL, well on their way to a postseason appearance.

But then there’s the other side of the coin — the pretenders. You know, the teams that haven’t started off so well and could be in for a very long campaign.

As is the case every year, the bottom-of-the-barrel teams are showing their respective colors, making it easy to predict where they’ll finish (hint: the basement).

There’s still many months until the 2015 Draft kicks off, but there are a few clubs I foresee soon being on the clock.

For your consideration, as always, I’ve listed only the top five candidates. Click on and enjoy, readers.
