Who are your picks to get the 1st round byes in the AFC?

Tentatively (the draft and free agency changes everything) I like the Chargers and Jaguars.

I don’t see the Jaguars getting it because they play in such a tough division, the Texans will be very good with Watson healthy, the Titans are solid and the Colts will get Luck back.

And while I like the Chargers and think they should’ve made the playoffs this season, I’m unsure about them getting a first round bye. I think they will win the AFC West and a first round bye is a possibility, but I’m not sure.

I just don’t see anyone unseating the Pats for the 1 seed in 2018, they are clearly above every other AFC team and I think they will improve in the offseason, and it helps that they play 6 of their games against the Jets, Bills and Dolphins.
