          The 2024 NFL season is 12 weeks old, and it's never too early to think about the 2025 draft, which begins on April 24 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Let's take a look at the projected first-round draft order for all 32 teams using ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI).

          Each week during the season, the FPI projects the draft order by simulating the remainder of the season 20,000 times. Game probabilities are based primarily on the model's team ratings and game locations. The draft order is determined by the records the model projects for each team after 17 games, as well as each team's average draft position across the simulations.

          Our FPI predictions gave the New York Giants the best chance to secure the first pick after Week 11, but there has been a shift at the top of the board. The New England Patriots are now projected at No. 1 overall. Which teams round out the top five? What about the top 10? Check out our full projections below, and check back every Tuesday for updates throughout the season.
