First Round Order of the 2020 NFL Draft

With the Kansas City Chiefs victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV the order of the first round, and all subsequent rounds (excluding the Compensatory picks), of the 2020 NFL Draft is finally set. Accurate mock drafts, if mock draft can ever be considered accurate, may now commence. Here's the first round order of the 2020 NFL Draft.

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

It sure is strange to see Las Vegas Raiders. It'll be strange for a long time. We've seen it before but it still isn't right for the Raiders to be anywhere other than Oakland.

There will be a definite Raiders presence at the Draft as it will be held in Las Vegas. The Raiders are also currently slotted to pick twice in the first round.

Las Vegas Raiders: 2 (#12, #19)

Jacksonville Jaguars: 2 (#9, #20)

Teams without a first round pick:
Pittsburgh Steelers
Chicago Bears
Los Angeles Rams
Houston Texans

It's unusual to see the Steelers without a first round pick. They probably rank with the Cincinnati Bengals as the teams that hold most tightly to the picks where they are originally slotted.

The NFL offseason has officially started.
