Here is the first-round draft order following the Conference championship games. The Chicago Bears are guaranteed the first overall pick from the Carolina Panthers as a result of the trade last spring. They also hold their own #1 pick, the 9th overall selection.
The NFL Draft selection order is based on the 2024 NFL standings plus the NFL Draft tiebreaking procedures. Picks 1-18 are the non-playoff teams, with the losing playoff clubs set on picks #19-30. Tied positions rotate up in the succeeding rounds. Positions 1 through 30 are now set and the final two positions will be based on the Super Bowl game.
Currently Carolina & Cleveland do not have 2024 1st round picks
