browns make big 2026 draft order move after sunday s loss

The Cleveland Browns missed a critical chance to gain momentum following their bye week. They fell 27-20 to the New York Jets, a team that entered with just one win and had recently made two significant defensive trades. Mistakes and missed opportunities defined the outcome, leaving Cleveland at 2-7 while the Jets improved to the same record. With playoff hopes all but gone, the Browns’ front office is likely turning its attention to the 2026 NFL Draft. Following Sunday’s loss, Cleveland now holds the No. 4 and No.

Prior to the game, data showed that the loser of the matchup would have a huge advantage in the fight for the top overall selection in the upcoming NFL draft. Then the Browns allowed the New York Jets to return two kicks for touchdowns, lost despite giving up just 54 yards of passing (40 on one play) and closed out the game with two...

With a bunch of bad teams, Cleveland has found a way to be among the worst. Last week’s NFL draft order saw the Browns drop with both of their selections after bad luck and the Jacksonville Jaguars winning. Not as much of a problem in Week 10 with the loss to the Jets. A few other games went Cleveland’s way to help them move up some and have a much higher chance of getting a high pick by the end of the year: Miami Dolphins shocked the Buffalo Bills, getting their third victory New Orleans Saints knocked off the Carolina Panthers, getting their second victory

Fast forward to today, and his offensive fire... The NFL season isn’t close to over, but Cleveland Browns fans are already thinking ahead. No one can blame them, and there is hope that things can get better next year. A simulator recently projected the odds of the Browns getting the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Things are all bad right now for the Cleveland Browns.

On Sunday, they fell to 2-7 on the season, losing to the New York Jets, who entered the game with just one win. En route to the 27-20 final score, the Browns gave up a kick return touchdown and a punt return score, 127 rushing yards, and once again looked bad on offense. While Cleveland has eight games left on the schedule, this season is beyond over. For fans, the rest of the games will be about getting in the best draft position possible. In that sense, Sunday was a great day for Cleveland’s race towards the top of the draft. With a ton of football left to be played, the Browns currently sit with the No.

4 pick in the 2026 Draft. With more losses certainly on the way, Cleveland could continue moving even closer to No. 1. With the Jets also being one of the worst teams in the NFL, Sunday’s result shook up the current top 10 order. Here’s a look at where things stand after the early slate of Week 10: The Browns are one of three 2-7 teams, with one of the other being the Jets, and the other one being the Las Vegas Raiders, who Cleveland will play in Week 12.

The Browns will also play the Tennessee Titans and Cincinnati Bengals before the season is over, giving Cleveland a real opportunity to secure itself a high draft spot. While it’s paradoxical for fans to pull for their own team to lose, a high draft pick is nearly all Browns fans have to look forward to the rest of the season. The only other thing Cleveland fans are anticipating is the debut of rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, however, that doesn’t appear to be happening as quickly as everyone would like. The 2026 NFL draft order is taking shape after Week 10. The Cleveland Browns have a Top 5 and a Top 20 pick into Week 11 Last week, the Cleveland Browns lost positioning in the 2026 NFL draft order despite being on a bye week.

Prior to the Browns versus the New York Jets, data showed that the loser of the matchup would have a huge advantage in the fight for the top overall selection in the upcoming NFL... Cleveland is that team, now, especially as big underdogs going into a home matchup with the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. There are still a lot of teams that could be considered on “tank watch” for the season, but following Week 10’s results, the Browns are currently slotted as the fourth overall pick in the... The selection they received from the Jacksonville Jaguars, from the Travis Hunter trade, is still 19th in the order, but the Jaguars seem to be falling apart a bit. Here is the current order, per Tankathon:

Bookmark this page to see where the Browns stand every week on the road to the draft. Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season is nearly complete, giving fans a clear picture of where their favorite teams stand record-wise. While playoff spots aren’t decided after just eight weeks, this is typically when teams begin to separate themselves. Some teams are emerging as playoff contenders while others are sinking toward the bottom of the standings.

Unfortunately for Cleveland Browns fans, the team appears to be leaning toward the latter. With their loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday, the Browns’ record moved to 2-6, tying for the second-worst mark in the league. Cleveland Browns fans are very familiar with the feeling of a season being over long before it is over. For the Browns 2025 NFL season, the season is over before the season is halfway over. Sitting at 2-6, Cleveland would need multiple miracles to be competitive, even in the messy AFC North. Talking quarterback changes, potential head coaching candidates and a focus on the 2026 NFL draft are all clear signs of a season gone.

Week 8’s loss to the New England Patriots was not only in humiliating fashion but also took away all hope that the Browns were going to find their way this season.

After the bye week and the NFL trade deadline, the Browns face off with the New York Jets in a matchup that could end up deciding the top pick in the 2026 NFL draft. As of now, the draft order looks as follows: Monday Night Football could impact the draft order if the Chiefs win. A Kansas City victory will move them to 5-3 and move the Jaguars selection to 19th.
