Updated 2024 NFL Draft Order After Sunday's Week 10 Results

The Chicago Bears emerged as the biggest winner in the hunt for the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NFL draft after the Week 10 games on Sunday and Thursday.

They beat the Carolina Panthers to keep the NFC South side at one win, and then they moved into the top spot in the draft order after the Arizona Cardinals' win over the Atlanta Falcons.

Chicago holds Carolina's 2024 first-round pick from the trade that took Bryce Young to the Panthers with the top selection in 2023.

Arizona's success in Kyler Murray's first start of the season is a good sign for the Bears and other teams that are in contention for the top pick.

The New York Giants and New England Patriots do not appear to be going anywhere but down in the standings, and it's probably best for both teams to aim for as high of a draft pick as possible at this point in the season.

The Bears won in all sorts of ways in Week 10.

They picked up a victory on the field on Thursday night against Carolina, which also moved the team into pole position for the top pick in the 2024 NFL draft.

The Panthers are now the only team in the league with one win. Arizona, New England and the Giants are the only sides with two victories.

Carolina's misery is likely continue over the next month, when it faces the Dallas Cowboys in Week 11 and then embarks on a three-game road run at the Tennessee Titans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints.

Frank Reich's side could easily go 0-4 in that stretch, which is exactly what the Bears want.

Chicago's natural first-round pick sits at No. 5 going into Week 11, and it could move up a spot or two with another multi-game losing run.

The Bears face the Detroit Lions twice in the next four weeks and play the Minnesota Vikings before their Week 13 bye.

Chicago should enter the final four weeks of the regular season with a strong chance of landing a pair of top-five picks.

Kyler Murray's Return Changes Top 5 Race

The Kyler Murray-led Cardinals comeback on Sunday shifted around the top five as Arizona is now in the No. 4 spot behind the Patriots.

Arizona is best equipped out of the teams in the top five to go on a winning run. Murray's knee is only going to get stronger as the weeks go on.

The Giants and Patriots again showed in Week 10 they have subpar quarterback play and are nowhere close to winning games. The only chance either side has to win for the rest of the season is in their Week 12 head-to-head battle, though it wouldn't shock fans to see the game end in a tie.

Arizona could inch ahead of both teams in the coming weeks depending on how competitive Murray makes it look against the Houston Texans, Los Angeles Rams and Pittsburgh Steelers in the three games ahead of the Week 14 bye.
