The top 20 picks in the 2019 NFL Draft order are now set after the conclusion of Week 17 and the regular season, and the Cardinals have the top pick.

There have been 17 weeks of NFL football played now, meaning that the regular season is over. Thus, we know which 12 teams will head into the postseason and vie to win Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta. For the 20 teams that won’t be competing in the playoffs, however, it’s about looking towards the future now as they know where they’ll be picking in the 2019 NFL Draft.

It will be the Arizona Cardinals, who parted ways with head coach Steve Wilks on Black Monday, that will have the top pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. After trading up in the first round to take quarterback Josh Rosen in last year’s draft, the Cards now look to put pieces around him.

Of course, for the rest of the 20 teams that missed out on the playoffs, they too have holes that they need to fill. That’s ultimately why they’re left out of the postseason picture and looking ahead to the draft as soon as the regular season has subsided.

With that, let’s take a look at the updated 2019 NFL Draft order as the top 20 picks are set (selections No. 21-32 are projections via Tankathon):

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