Jacksonville Jaguars Hold First Pick In 2022 NFL Draft

The Jacksonville Jaguars hold the No. 1 pick in the 2022 National Football League Draft, which
is scheduled for April 28-30 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The tentative order of the first round was announced today by the NFL, subject to the results of
the playoffs.

The draft order is determined by the following procedures:

(A) The winner of the Super Bowl game selects last and the loser selects next-to-last in
all rounds, regardless of the record of the clubs in the regular season.

(B) The losers of the Conference Championship games select 29th and 30th in all
rounds, according to the reverse order of their standing.

(C) The losers of the Divisional Playoffs select 25th through 28th in all rounds, according
to the reverse order of their standing.

(D) The losers of the Wild Card games select 19th through 24th in all rounds, according
to the reverse order of their standing.

(E) Clubs not participating in the playoffs select in the first through 18th positions in all
rounds, according to the reverse order of their standing.

If, after all the foregoing procedures have been applied, ties still exist in any grouping except (A)
above, such ties shall be broken by figuring the aggregate won-lost-tied percentage of each
involved club’s regular season opponents and awarding preferential selection order to the club
which faced the schedule of teams with the lowest aggregate won-lost-tied percentage.

If ties still exist between teams in the same division or the same conference, the divisional or
conference tie-breaking method is used, whichever is applicable.

If ties still exist, the procedures for breaking ties for teams of different conferences shall be
applied.
 Clubs involved in two-club ties will alternate positions from round-to-round. In ties that involve
three or more clubs, the club at the top of a tied segment in a given round will move to the
bottom of the segment for the next round, while all other clubs in the segment move up one
position. This rotation continues throughout the Draft.
