Week 9 represents the halfway mark of the 18-week NFL season. At this point, many teams know whether they can contend for the playoffs or if it’s time to look ahead to next year’s NFL draft.
The 2025 NFL draft order will have some shake-ups going forward, and there were several in the final moments of Week 9 games. Still, certain teams are more clearly in the running for the No. 1 overall pick. There are nine teams with two or fewer wins through the first slate of afternoon games in Week 9.
After the Carolina Panthers’ win over the New Orleans Saints, the Panthers dropped from the No. 1 spot to No. 3. They now sit behind the New England Patriots and Saints in each of the top two spots, respectively.
