Fans of the Cleveland Browns got a reprieve from the misery in Week 12 with a strong victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in QB Shedeur Sanders’ starting debut. It wasn’t perfect, far from it, but it was good enough and good enough to get some wondering if the team could build around the young quarterback this offseason.

Week 13 has now come and gone, with Browns fans left to ponder the same things they have been most of the season: Will there be sweeping changes within the organization? Who will be the next potential franchise QB? What is the current 2026 NFL draft order?

With the Jacksonville Jaguars winning again, taking over the AFC South lead, with a mostly weak schedule ahead, the Browns second pick in the first round will likely be decided by games in the playoffs. Tracking draft positioning is nothing new for Cleveland fans, but that one-week reprieve provided hope that there might be more to the rest of the season.

The Browns are currently slotted with the fifth overall pick while the 8-4 Jaguars are at #26.

Here is the current order, per Tankathon:

2026 NFL draft order – Heading into Week 14

  1. Tennessee Titans: 1-11
  2. New Orleans Saints: 2-10
  3. New York Giants: 2-10
  4. Las Vegas Raiders: 2-10
  5. Cleveland Browns: 3-9
  6. Washington Commanders: 3-9
  7. New York Jets: 3-9
  8. Arizona Cardinals: 3-9
  9. Atlanta Falcons: 4-8 (Goes to Los Angeles Rams)
  10. Cincinnati Bengals: 4-8
  11. Minnesota Vikings: 4-8
  12. Miami Dolphins: 5-7
  13. Kansas City Chiefs: 6-6
  14. Pittsburgh Steelers: 6-6
  15. Carolina Panthers: 7-6
  16. Dallas Cowboys: 6-5-1
  17. Detroit Lions: 7-5
  18. Houston Texans: 7-5
  19. Baltimore Ravens: 6-6
  20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 7-5
  21. Buffalo Bills: 8-4
  22. Philadelphia Eagles: 8-4
  23. Indianapolis Colts: 8-4 (Goes to the Jets)
  24. San Francisco 49ers: 8-4
  25. Los Angeles Chargers: 8-4
  26. Jacksonville Jaguars: 8-4 (Goes to the Browns)
  27. Green Bay Packers: 8-3-1 (Goes to the Cowboys)
  28. Seattle Seahawks: 9-3
  29. Los Angeles Rams: 9-3
  30. New England Patriots: 10-2
  31. Chicago Bears: 9-3
  32. Denver Broncos: 10-2

Cleveland has an interesting schedule with the Titans, Bears and Bills before finishing with the Steelers and Bengals. Jacksonville has the Titans, Jets and Colts (twice) left on its schedule, which could make its path to the NFL playoffs much easier.

What spot do you think the Browns will be selecting when the 2026 NFL draft rolls around in April?
