The draft order is based on the reverse standings from the previous NFL season. The team with the worst record picks first, while the Super Bowl champion picks last in each round. This system is designed to promote parity by giving struggling teams earlier access to top talent.

If two or more teams finish with identical records, the order is determined by a series of tiebreakers — starting with strength of schedule (favoring teams that faced easier opponents), followed by head-to-head results and conference rankings if needed.

And here are the current order for tonight:

The draft consists of 7 rounds, during which teams select a total of over 250 players.

The exact number of picks can vary slightly due to compensatory selections, which are awarded to teams that lost key free agents in the offseason.

• Round 1: Held on opening night and features the most high-profile selections.
• Rounds 2–3: Held on Day 2, often yielding starters and major contributors.
• Rounds 4–7: Wrap up the draft on Day 3, where teams aim to find depth and hidden gems.

While first-round picks get the spotlight, history shows that elite talent can be found in any round.

The NFL Draft is an annual event where all 32 teams select eligible college football players to join their rosters. It serves as the primary method for teams to acquire new talent and build for the future.
