NFL Draft 2016 Standings: Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Baltimore Ravens, Chargers, Titans, Dallas Cowboys, Jaguars, 49ers Getting First Overall Pick?

The NFL season still has a long way to go, but the standings for the draft are starting to fall into place and teams like the Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Baltimore Ravens, San Diego Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Dallas Cowboys, Jacksonville Jaguars and San Francisco 49ers could potentially get the number one overall pick.

The Browns are currently in position for the number one overall pick at 2-8 heading into Week 11, sitting ahead of the Chargers and the Titans. The 2016 class could have some solid prospects, including names like Jared Goff, Connor Cook, Kevin Hogan, Cody Kessler, Jordan Jenkins, Trevone Boykin, Christian Hackenberg, Laquon Treadwell and Paxton Lynch and one of those players could go at number one.

The official order for the NFL draft as thing stand now, according to NFL.com has the Browns picking number one overall ahead of the San Diego Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys in the top five. The Detroit Lions are at number six, sitting ahead of the San Francisco 49ers, Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the top 10.

The Browns come into Week 11 with two wins this season and the team just recently named Johnny Manziel the starter for the rest of the year. The team is in position for the number one pick for now and depending on how Manziel plays, the Browns could consider taking another quarterback if they get it. The Chargers are 2-7 this season and San Diego also could look at taking a quarterback if they finish in the top three, as they could groom the player to take over for Philip Rivers when he is done.

The Titans have liked how Marcus Mariota has played this season and the team has a ton of needs coming into this draft, but not at quarterback. The team fired head coach Ken Whisenhunt and how the Titans finish the season will determine if Mike Mularkey stays after replacing Whisenhunt. The Ravens have had a tough season and they are currently in place for the fourth overall pick at 2-7 coming into Week 11.

The Dallas Cowboys have lost seven straight games and are 2-7 on the season, but Tony Romo is about to come back and that could lift the team from the top 10. The Cowboys could potentially take a quarterback if they end up in this part of the draft, as they will need someone to replace Romo in the future. The Detroit Lions are in position for the sixth pick at 2-7 and after firing the front office, big changes could be coming in the offseason. The team potentially could take a quarterback and things would change if Jim Caldwell does not return.

According to NFL.com, the draft order in the standings is determined with a combination of team records and strength of schedule. Tiebreakers use conference and division records to see which team goes ahead of which in the draft order.
