2024 NFL Draft order: Bears close in on No. 1; how picks 1-32 stand after Week 14

Posted by Christie Applegate on Monday, May 6, 2024

Somehow, the Chicago Bears have worked themselves back into the NFC playoff picture. With consecutive wins over the Vikings and Lions, they’re within one game of a wild-card spot, despite holding a 5-8 record.

For a rebuilding club, though, that’s hardly the story. Instead, the Bears will be most excited that — thanks to Carolina’s 28-6 loss in New Orleans and New England’s upset of Pittsburgh — they’re now just a handful of friendly results from locking up the No. 1 pick in the 2024 draft. Carolina, which owes Chicago its 2024 first-round selection, now holds a two-game edge on the Patriots and Cardinals for that top slot.
