With the NFL entering the Wild card round of the playoffs, teams now have acquired their spot in the 2014 NFL Draft. Topping this years list is the Houston Texans followed by the Rams, Jaguars, Browns and Raiders to round out the Top 5.
The NFL Draft is set for May 8th in New York but only 20 of the 32 teams have an established draft order. The 12 spots that remain will be arranged as playoff season continues and teams drop from the march to the Super Bowl 2014.
According to several sources including an article from CBS Sports, Miami native and Louisville Cardinals' Teddy Bridgewater is likely to go in the first round.
Much of the speculation is fueled by Houston's loss to the Tennessee Titans in week 17 including two interceptions thrown by current QB Matt Schaub. While Schaub's contract was extended last year through 2016, a draft pick could be the least expensive route for Houston to make the QB change, unless they take a possible cap relief hit at a cost of millions.
TOP TEN DRAFT ORDER:
1. Houston Texans
2. St. Louis Rams (Redskins)
3. Jacksonville Jaguars
4. Cleveland Browns
5. Oakland Raiders
6. Atlanta Falcons
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
8. Minnesota Vikings
9. Buffalo Bills
10. Detroit Lions
