The Arizona Cardinals' win over the Philadelphia Eagles has caused a shift in the NFL Draft order. The New England Patriots moved to the No. 3 spot, while the Washington Commanders, on a 7-game losing streak, are now in position for the second overall pick. The Giants have a chance to clinch the No. 2 overall pick if specific outcomes occur in the season finale. Washington's loss to the 49ers also contributed to the Commanders moving up to second in the '24 draft with a week left in the season, potentially altering the team's draft strategy.
PMers: Washington's loss to the 49ers moved the Commanders up to second in the '24 draft with a week left in the season. If they stay there, the draft calculus for the team's next regime would change significantly. In @TheAthletic: https://t.co/1P7t1zOrve

Following the Cardinals win over the Eagles, the Giants can clinch the No. 2 overall pick in the season finale next week if the following happens: -Cardinals win (vs. SEA) -Commanders win (vs. DAL) -Patriots win (vs. NYJ) -Giants loss (vs. PHI) #NYGiants #NFLDraft
The Cardinals win means the No. 2 pick will likely go to either Commanders or Patriots if either loses next week.
With the Cardinals' win over the Eagles, Washington -- who is on a 7-game losing streak -- is now in position for the second overall pick, per Tankathon
