With fewer than four weeks remaining in the 2024 NFL regular season, we have a new No. 1 pick ... for now.
The New York Giants claimed the top spot after the Baltimore Ravens handed them their ninth straight defeat, but the Las Vegas Raiders can retake the No. 1 position if they lose against the Atlanta Falcons on "Monday Night Football." Elsewhere, the Carolina Panthers are third after falling to the Dallas Cowboys, the Jacksonville Jaguars sit in fourth after losing to the New York Jets in a battle of three-win squads and the Tennessee Titans round out the top five after giving up 37 points in a double-digit defeat versus the Cincinnati Bengals.
With the early window of games compete from Week 15, CBSSports.com looks at where teams would be picking at this moment in time. Also listed is each club's pending free agents and potential needs based on those players who may be leaving.
The draft order, via Tankathon.com, is ordered by win-loss record and ties are broken by strength of schedule. Team needs are a combination of current needs and looking ahead to pending free agents. Notable pending free agents are listed rather than the full list.
