Updated 2023 NFL Draft order after conference championship games

Let’s take a look at the updated NFL Draft order with another four teams out of contention and only one game to play in this year’s NFL season.

With another round of NFL action in the books, another two NFL franchises found their seasons over, which means they are not only joining the majority of their fellow teams in offseason planning but also means the official order for the 2023 NFL Draft is that much closer to being cemented top to bottom.

This year’s NFL Draft festivities are of particular concern to us here because the weekend event is being held in Kansas City and it should be a banner weekend of fun and football for all of us in Chiefs Kingdom.

As for the draft order, the Kansas City Chiefs were never going to be near the top but the conference championships did further clarify the picture by sending the Cincinnati Bengals and San Francisco 49ers packing. That means the only real questions are whether or not the Chiefs or Philadelphia Eagles will have the last pick in every round.

Given what we know now, here’s the full 2023 NFL Draft order:

1. Chicago Bears
2. Houston Texans
3. Arizona Cardinals
4. Indianapolis Colts
5. Seattle Seahawks (from Denver)
6. Detroit Lions (from LA Rams)
7. Las Vegas Raiders
8. Atlanta Falcons
9. Carolina Panthers
10. Philadelphia Eagles (from New Orleans)
11. Tennessee Titans
12. Houston Texans (from Cleveland)
13. New York Jets
