Joe TanseyJan 12, 2026

The top 24 picks in the 2026 NFL draft order are result away from being confirmed.

The Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Chargers, Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars all lost on wild-card weekend. Only three of those teams have first-round picks.

Green Bay's Saturday loss confirmed a top-20 pick for the Dallas Cowboys, while Jacksonville's defeat allowed the Cleveland Browns to have two selections in the top 24.

The top 24 picks in the draft order will be confirmed after Monday night's matchup between the Houston Texans and Pittsburgh Steelers.

If Pittsburgh loses, the Steelers own the No. 21 overall pick.

If Houston falls, it will have the No. 23 pick. The Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles would then move up one spot in the projected order.

The Pittsburgh-Houston result won't have an affect on the draft position the Jaguars are giving to the Browns.

Cleveland is in possession of the Nos. 6 and 24 selections. The second first-round pick was brought to the Browns in the Travis Hunter trade.

Cleveland is one of three teams that will have multiple picks in the top 24.

Dallas confirmed its second pick in the top 20 with Green Bay's loss to the Chicago Bears. The Cowboys landed that selection in the Micah Parsons trade.

The New York Jets are the other team with multiple picks in the top 24. They are currently slated to pick at Nos. 2 and 16. The second of those selections came in the Sauce Gardner deal with the Indianapolis Colts.

The Los Angeles Rams will also have multiple first-round selections due to their draft-day trade with the Atlanta Falcons in 2025. The Rams' second position is yet to be confirmed because they are still involved in the postseason.

Next week's divisional round will confirm picks Nos. 25-28. The conference championship game losers pick 29th and 30th. The Super Bowl loser will be 31st in the draft order and the Super Bowl champion picks 32nd.
