While the fortunate postseason contenders prepare to make a potential Super Bowl run, the rest of the league will be hard at work preparing for the 2024 NFL Draft.

Now that Week 18 is in the books, we now know where those non-playoff teams will be picking in the first-round order for the time being, pending any trades between now and draft weekend in April.
