2025 NFL draft order after Week 15

While the NFL’s playoff picture is becoming clearer as the season progresses, the picture atop the 2025 NFL draft remains muddled.

Only two teams entered Week 15 of the 2024 season with just two wins – the Las Vegas Raiders and New York Giants. However, there were six three-win teams behind them waiting to pounce into the race for the No. 1 pick should either team have earned an unexpected victory against a couple of playoff-hopeful opponents.

The Giants were unable to do that in their Sunday afternoon matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. Lamar Jackson threw five touchdowns while Tommy DeVito and Tim Boyle struggled to spark New York’s offense in the 35-14 defeat.

With the Raiders not playing until Monday night against the Atlanta Falcons, the Giants were temporarily in control of the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft with their earlier loss. Ultimately, Las Vegas could not upset Kirk Cousins and Co., so Brian Daboll’s squad fell back to the No. 2 pick.
