In 2025, every NFL team entered the draft with its first-round pick still in place. This year is a whole lot different.<\/p>\n
The 2026 NFL draft now has six teams with two first-round picks and six teams with no first-round picks, after the Bengals traded their first-round pick to the Giants for Dexter Lawrence.<\/p>\n
Of the teams with two first-round picks, the Giants are in the best position to make significant additions to their roster, as both their picks are in the Top 10: Their own first-round pick is No. 5 overall and the Bengals\u2019 first-round pick is No. 10 overall.<\/p>\n
The Dolphins have their own pick (No. 11) as well as the Broncos\u2019 pick (No. 30) from the Jaylen Waddle trade.<\/p>\n
The Jets have their own pick (No. 2) and the Colts\u2019 pick (No. 16) from the Sauce Gardner trade.<\/p>\n
The Cowboys have their own pick (No. 12) and the Packers\u2019 pick (No. 20) from the Micah Parsons trade.<\/p>\n
The Chiefs have their own pick (No. 9) and the Rams\u2019 pick (No. 29) from the Trent McDuffie trade.<\/p>\n
The Browns have their own pick (No. 6) and the Jaguars\u2019 pick (No. 24) from the draft-day trade a year ago that allowed the Jaguars to move up to draft Travis Hunter.<\/p>\n
A seventh team was poised to get a second first-round pick when the Raiders agreed to trade Maxx Crosby to the Ravens, but that trade fell through and the Ravens kept their first-round pick.<\/p>\n
Six teams don\u2019t have a first-round pick: The Bengals, Broncos, Falcons, Colts, Packers and Jaguars.<\/p>\n
All of the teams with two first-round picks missed the playoffs this year. They\u2019re looking to rebuild their rosters, and hoping they\u2019ll look back in a few years and say having two first-round picks was a big part of turning their teams around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In 2025, every NFL team entered the draft with its first-round pick still in place.
