There are still four more weeks left in the NFL season so the order could shift before then. Of course, the winless Cleveland Browns, who were on a bye this week, maintain the top spot.
Below is the current draft order, based on playoff seeding (21-32), record, and strength of schedule (SOS), for all 32 first-round spots if the season ended today. Of course, the order of playoff teams would eventually be determined by the completed playoff picture and Super Bowl winner.
