NFL Week 17 wrapped up on Monday Night Football, meaning the upcoming slate of 16 games on Sunday is the final week of the regular season. While a majority of the playoff spots have been locked up, there are plenty of teams still positioning themselves for where they’ll pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Ahead of Week 18, here is the 2026 NFL Draft order right now and a look at NFL Draft picks by team.
Here are the Las Vegas Raiders draft picks in 2026.
The Chicago Bears faced off with the San Francisco 49ers on the road, and although they came up short, they didn’t go down without a fight. This 42-38 loss to the 49ers consisted of exhilarating, inspired football from both offenses during Sunday Night Football as they went toe to toe in a shootout. The Bears proved that they can hang with any team.
Let’s get into Week 17’s superlative awards.

The Bears’ top two draft picks TE Colston Loveland and WR Luther Burden III showed out on Sunday night. They both played an instrumental role in getting this...

With Black Monday looming, about a third of the head coaches around the NFL are candidates to be dismissed. We rank the top 10.
While the offense shoulders the blame for the Steelers’ loss, Kyle Dugger and the defense certainly had opportunities to close. And close early, in fact. Rather than allow a touchdown, they could have easily recorded a takeaway instead. Former Steelers and Browns CB Joe Haden puts the blame entirely on Dugger for Cleveland’s lone touchdown. […]

For the past four weeks, it has been mentioned on numerous media sites and Arizona Cardinals podcasts that, as the season’s end, head coach Jonathan Gannon would be relieved of his duties.
After all, after beginning the year 2-0-0, the team has gone 1-13-0 since. They had quite a few games won in the last few minutes that got away from them, lost eight contests by less than a touchdown, and have been blown out in five games, including last Sunday’s 37-14 loss to one of the league’s worst teams, the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Rams had more yards, nearly twice as many passing yards, and outscored the Falcons 24-6 in the second half. If you skipped the game—in your defense, you were very sleepy—and woke up to that small assortment of facts, you’d assume Los Angeles destroyed Atlanta in primetime.
But that’s not what happened, of course. What happened was the defense putting on a masterclass performance in the first half, shutting out Matthew Stafford and that high-powered offense entirely along the way. They sacked him, harried him, and picked him off three times, one from Jessie Bates and two from Xavier Watts....

Stefon Diggs has been worth every penny for the Patriots, but how many pennies will New England ultimately pay the star receiver this season?
Well, that remains to be seen, as Diggs could earn himself extra money this Sunday when the Patriots host the Miami Dolphins.
Diggs needs just 30 yards on Sunday to reach 1,000 for the season, a mark that would lock in a $500,000 contract incentive, according to Spotrac. The veteran wideout earned $500,000 last week when he eclipsed the 80-catch mark in New England’s blowout road win over the New York Jets.
Through the first 17...

The Tennessee Titans did some good things offensively in Sunday’s 34-26 Week 17 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Rookie quarterback Cam Ward had his fourth straight multi-TD passing game. Ward’s first score went to tight end Chig Okonkwo on quite the individual effort.
Titans interim head coach Mike McCoy got aggressive. Faced with a 4th-and-2 in no man’s land, McCoy quickly kept the Titans offense on the field. Ward had a play-action fake with Okonkwo leaking off the line of scrimmage in a block-and-release concept. Okonkwo came free across the defense for an easy chain-moving catch. The former Maryland...

The Detroit Lions saw five players earn Pro Bowl nominations in 2025-26, and while postseason recognition is meant to be an appreciation of talent, there are typically financial ramifications attached to the acknowledgement. For veterans, those outcomes often present themselves in the form of palatable roster bonuses. However, first-round picks who are still playing on their rookie deals could see their contracts altered quite significantly.
Of the Lions’ 2025-26 Pro Bowlers, two are former first-round picks who are still on rookie contracts—Jahmyr Gibbs and Jack Campbell—and both are in line to cash in, via their team-controlled fifth-year options.
This offseason,...

The Commanders got some help from the teams near them in the draft order last week to set up an exciting finish to the race for draft position.
Most importantly, two of the three teams that were two losses ahead of them won their Week 17 games to fall within striking distance. The New York Giants beat the hapless Raiders, as expected. But the jewel in the Week 17 crown was the 3-12 Browns’ surprise victory over the 9-6 Steelers. That upset win opens up two avenues for the Commanders to overtake the Browns in the final week of games....

Although it was a bit of a slow start to begin his rookie season, New Orleans Saints QB Tyler Shough seems to be improving every single game.
On Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, Shough had an excellent day, finishing with 333 passing yards and 2 touchdowns. This matchup was also a rookie QB battle between Shough and first overall pick Cam Ward, who has been quietly having a good year. In the end, with the win and performance, Shough came out on top and outplayed Ward.
Due to this game, the Offensive Rookie Of The Year odds have had a...

The second game of the college football quarterfinal round will kick off at Noon on New Year’s Day. Let’s take a look at some of the best prospects that the Bengals should be checking out during the game.
The Bengals signed TJ Slaton to a two-year contract last offseason. He hasn’t been overly impactful, but also not a liability by any means as a run defender. Could the Bengals look to upgrade the position via the draft? If so, they might be interested in A’Mauri Washington from Oregon.
Washington was a member of the Feldman Freak List. The 6’3”, 338-pound...
