Roughly half of the 2023 NFL Draft order is in place so prepare to see the same projections for the next four months. There is going to be significant conversation about how the top five is going to shake out given the Chicago Bears' position at No. 1 overall and the unlikelihood that they take a quarterback. Will someone jump Houston to take the first quarterback or will the Texans have their choice at No. 2 overall?  Those scenarios and more are discussed in today's thought exercise. The draft order below is now the official order based on team records and tiebreakers. There is not a No. 22 overall pick here, as that's the pick the Dolphins forfeited due to tampering violations.
