The Jacksonville Jaguars are the new favorites to have the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft, according to the updated first-round projections from the ESPN Football Power Index. The 2-12 Jaguars -- who picked first in the 2021 draft -- took over the top spot after the Detroit Lions' stunning upset win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15. The Lions are now 2-11-1, with that tie looming large in the race for the top spot.
There already have been five trades involving first-round picks in the 2022 draft, with the New York Giants projected to have two top-10 picks.
