Week 11 updated 2025 NFL draft order: Giants inch closer to Shedeur Sanders, Patriots fall out of Travis Hunter sweepstakes
The NFL draft order continues to take shape as Week 11 of the 2024 season approaches. The official order can change weekly based on the results of each game and where teams are in the standings. The picks go in reverse order of the standings, with the worst team getting the top pick and the Super Bowl champions picking last.
Through the first 10 weeks of the season, the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Giants are tied as the worst teams in the NFL with a 2-8 record. The tiebreakers result in the Jaguars owning the top pick, with the Giants coming in right behind them. Four other teams have also won just two games, but none of them have eight losses yet due to bye weeks.
In terms of what the Giants could be targeting in the 2025 NFL draft, it may not matter if the Jaguars are picking before them. Many believe that New York will draft a quarterback this year as Daniel Jones has been disappointing. Jacksonville recently locked Trevor Lawrence to a long-term contract, so the position is not likely on their radar.
If the Giants are in line to be the first team to select a QB, they could potentially land Shedeur Sanders. He has been solid in his role with the Colorado Buffaloes and is expected to be one of the first selected. His teammate Travis Hunter, one of the most dynamic prospects in the country, is also one of the most desirable picks.
The Jaguars may target the two-way superstar with their pick, which could be bad news for the New England Patriots. Their victory against the Chicago Bears this week has dropped them out of the top five picks, so they may not have the opportunity to draft Hunter. The 2025 NFL draft order will likely continue to change as the season progresses, but for now, they are out of the sweepstakes.
Here's what the 2025 NFL draft order could look like at the end of the season according to Sportskeeda's Predictor tool.
Projected 2025 NFL Draft order entering Week 11
Sportskeeda's Predictor tool projects that the Tennessee Titans will earn the top pick in the 2025 NFL draft order. With Will Levis struggling as their starting QB, they could also be in the mix for Shedeur Sanders. This could be detrimental to the Giants, who are projected to get the third overall pick, with the Cleveland Browns ahead of them.
The tool predicts the Jaguars and Patriots to have relatively strong finishes to the season and will slide further down in the draft order. With both teams predicted to fall out of the top five, their chances of landing Travis Hunter are slim. It will be interesting to see how the order plays out and who each team eventually drafts.
