The NFL Draft is still months away, but there are plenty of teams looking forward to it before the season is even over.
We are still months away from the NFL Draft in Chicago, but that doesn’t mean teams are going to start looking forward to it right now. Only 12 teams will make the postseason this year which means over half of the league will finish next week with the NFL Draft on their mind.
Teams like the Cardinals, Vikings, Seahawks and Jets have all crafted teams through the draft in order to make the postseason this year, which is what so many other franchises will try to do this April. There is still plenty of time for the draft order to change, but right now we have a pretty good idea of who will pick where.
Here’s a look at the updated NFL Draft order as we finish Week 16 and head towards the last weekend of the season.
1. Titans (3-12)
2. Browns (3-12)
3. Cowboys (4-11)
4. Chargers (4-11)
5. Niners (4-11)
6. Ravens (5-10)
7. Jaguars (5-10)
8. Dolphins (5-10)
9. Bears (6-9)
10. Buccaneers (6-9)
11. Lions (6-9)
12. Giants (6-9)
13. Eagles (6-9)
14. Saints (6-9)
15. Colts (6-9)
16. Bills (7-8)
17. Raiders (7-8)
18. Rams (7-8)
19. Falcons (8-7)
20. Redskins (8-7)
21. Texans (8-7)
22. Steelers (9-6)
23. Seahawks (9-6)
24. Vikings (10-5)
25. Packers (10-5)
26. Jets (10-5)
27. Chiefs (10-5)
28. Broncos (10-4)
29. Bengals (11-3)
30. Patriots* (12-3)
31. Cardinals (13-2)
32. Panthers (14-1)
The Patriots are going to forfeit their first-round pick thanks to all that DeflateGate business this offseason, which means there will officially be 31 picks in the first-round as opposed to a full 32-team round.
