Early in the day, it appeared as though several games on the NFL slate would be lopsided outcomes. However, there ended up being several comebacks, which resulted in three overtime games and others coming down to the final moments. The Cowboys, for example, erased a 21-point deficit against the Eagles before a Brandon Aubrey field goal finished the comeback in regulation.
Looking forward to Week 13, there are two games involving opponents with four wins or fewer: the Saints at the Dolphins and the Falcons at the Jets.
As a reminder, there are four teams — Atlanta, Green Bay, Indianapolis and Jacksonville — without a first-round pick in 2026 as a result of draft-day trades and the Micah Parsons and Sauce Gardner deals.
Here is the current 2026 NFL Draft order (via Tankathon) as well as potential team needs:
1. Tennessee Titans (1-10)
Projected needs: OT, IOL, WR, DL, EDGE
Tennessee, led by rookie quarterback Cam Ward, made it interesting late, but ultimately fell short against NFC contender Seattle. Eight different players caught passes from Ward, but none had more than 51 yards receiving.
2. New York Giants (2-10)
Projected needs: WR, CB, IOL, LB, OT
The Giants snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Amidst a six-game losing streak, New York has played in four one-score games.
3. New Orleans Saints (2-9)
Projected needs: CB, S, DL, RB, WR
New Orleans lost four games to open the season, then won a game, then lost the next four games, then ended that losing streak with a win. Could the Saints be amid another four-game losing streak leading up to a Dec. 21 game against the Jets?
4. New York Jets (2-9)
Projected needs: QB, WR, DL, CB, TE
The Jets scored first and played Baltimore close in the first half, but the Ravens pulled away for a 23-10 win.
5. Las Vegas Raiders (2-9)
Projected needs: CB, LB, S, DL, OT
The Browns had 10 sacks against Las Vegas on Sunday. The offense has stalled weekly. Las Vegas has several needs to address this offseason.
6. Cleveland Browns (3-8)
Projected needs: OT, WR, QB, CB, IOL
In a battle of two-win teams, Cleveland emerged victorious as Shedeur Sanders broke the franchise’s record of losses by a quarterback in their first start dating back to 1995.
7. Washington Commanders (3-8)
Projected needs: EDGE, LB, CB, TE, WR
Washington received a much-needed bye as Jayden Daniels works to re-take the field. The Commanders host Denver next week.
8. Cincinnati Bengals (3-8)
Projected needs: IOL, CB, S, TE, EDGE
New England had control of the game for much of the afternoon, but Joe Flacco made a few throws in the game’s final minute to put the outcome in question. The Bengals ultimately fell short in their comeback effort.
9. Arizona Cardinals (3-8)
Projected needs: OT, IOL, LB, DL, RB
Jacoby Brissett put forth a valiant effort against Jacksonville, but the game came down to a broken-up downfield attempt in overtime.
10. Miami Dolphins (4-7)
Projected needs: CB, WR, TE, IOL, S
Miami will put a two-game win streak on the line next week against the Saints. The Dolphins were on a bye in Week 12.

11. Los Angeles Rams via Atlanta Falcons (4-7)
Projected needs: CB, OT, LB, S, IOL
Los Angeles’ pick from Atlanta got a little worse as the Falcons separated from divisional foe New Orleans.
12. Minnesota Vikings (4-7)
Projected needs: LB, CB, S, DL, RB
Kevin O’Connell’s quarterback magic may have run out with J.J. McCarthy. The Vikings offense was once again anemic as Justin Jefferson’s face is being printed on milk cartons.
13. Carolina Panthers (6-6)
Projected needs: CB, S, IOL, WR, DL
Carolina traveled to San Francisco as a far-from-perfect team, and those flaws were evident in a
