Who will get the number 1 pick in 2023? The answer is simple: the worst team of the past season. But what happens after that? ran shows what the current order looks like (as of April 6, 2023).
The 2023 NFL Draft will take place April 27-29, 2023 in Kansas City. The first 18 picks go to the teams that didn’t qualify for the playoffs. With the same balance, the strength of all opponents in the regular season decides (strength of schedule). The weaker the opponent, the earlier the respective team can pick in the draft. Beginning in 19th place, teams are ranked at the end of the season by the time of their postseason elimination, then by their regular season record. The Miami Dolphins were stripped of their first-round pick – No. 21 – for illegally contacting Tom Brady.
