The Cleveland Browns did their part to stay in the running for the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
In losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night, the Browns secured at least a top-three selection in the next draft. They enter Sunday’s action in the top spot, but the New England Patriots and Tennessee Titans still have shots at the first selection.

If the Patriots lose to the visiting Buffalo Bills, they’ll earn the No. 1 pick in the draft. The Bills are locked into the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs and have said they’ll play MVP candidate Josh Allen briefly on Sunday.
If the Titans lose against the visiting Houston Texans and the Patriots defeat the Bills, they’ll earn the top pick. The Texans are locked in the No. 4 seed in the AFC playoffs.
