FINAL NFL DRAFT ORDER RELEASED
The NFL has just updated the final draft order for the 2024 NFL Draft, adding compensatory picks that sprinkle additional intrigue into the draft strategy of all 32 teams across the league.
This update follows the league's tradition of compensating teams that have lost more in free agency than they've gained, with the aim of maintaining competitive balance. The compensatory selections, totaling 34 picks, are awarded based on a formula that considers salary, playtime, and postseason accolades of the departed free agents.

Compensatory picks have a significant impact on the draft's landscape, extending from the end of the third round to the end of the seventh. This year, the compensatory picks highlight the strategic losses and gains of the teams in the offseason, rewarding those who have experienced net losses in player talent with additional opportunities to bolster their rosters through the draft.
The NFL aims to foster diversity and inclusion within its executive and coaching ranks. Teams that have developed minority employees who have advanced to head coach or primary football executive roles with other teams are recognized with additional draft picks. This initiative underlines the league's commitment to equal employment opportunities and building an inclusive work environment.
The updated list of compensatory picks in the 2024 draft is as follows:
- The Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers lead the pack with five extra selections each. Notably, both teams have been granted special compensatory picks in the high-value third and fourth rounds, a testament to their losses in the coaching staff.
- The San Francisco 49ers stand out with multiple compensatory selections in both the third and fourth rounds, indicating significant offseason adjustments.
- The Philadelphia Eagles have secured four additional picks, a reflection of their active free agency period the previous year.
- The New York Jets top the AFC teams with three extra selections, pointing to strategic moves in their roster development.
Among the noteworthy compensatory picks are the Jacksonville Jaguars at pick 96, the Philadelphia Eagles at 97, and the Los Angeles Rams rounding out the third round with pick 98. These selections kick off a series of strategic decisions teams will make to shape their future rosters.
The 2024 NFL Draft is set to begin on Thursday, April 25, and will run until Saturday, April 27. This event promises to be a pivotal moment for teams looking to rebuild and strengthen their lineups for the upcoming season. With the final draft order now set, teams and fans alike can fully immerse themselves in the draft strategies and potential player movements that will define the future of the NFL.
