Week 18 of the 2023 NFL season has arrived, and while some teams will be preparing for the playoffs come Sunday night, others will shift their focus to the 2024 NFL draft.

This weekend’s slate kicked off with the Pittsburgh Steelers defeating Baltimore Ravens 17-10 at M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday.

The Houston Texans followed that up with a 23-19 win over the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium to clinch a playoff berth for the first time since the 2019 campaign.

With playoff berths and top draft picks on the line on Sunday, here’s a look at the updated draft order following Baltimore’s win.

The Steelers, which remain on the playoff bubble, needed a win to remain in contention for a postseason berth, and they did just that against a Ravens squad that rested many of its starters in the regular-season finale after locking up the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

Since taking over as Pittsburgh’s starter in Week 16, Mason Rudolph has been solid under center, and he helped the Steelers earn their third straight win on Saturday by throwing for 152 yards and one touchdown.

Wide receiver Diontae Johnson also had a solid performance, catching four passes for 89 yards and one touchdown on five targets.

However, the story of Saturday’s matchup was defense as Pittsburgh forced two fumbles, recorded four sacks and limited the Ravens to just 224 total yards.

The Steelers will finish the regular season 10-7, and they have a 65 percent chance to make the playoffs.

With Saturday’s win, Pittsburgh dropped from the No. 18 selection in the 2024 draft to the No. 23 selection. The Ravens remain at No. 32 in the draft despite the loss.

Texans 23, Colts 19

The Texans and Colts went to battle for a berth in the playoffs in a win-and-in matchup that saw Houston punch its ticket to the postseason thanks to a terrific performance from rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud and wide receiver Nico Collins.

Stroud completed 20 of 26 passes for 264 yards and two touchdowns, in addition to rushing for 20 yards on three carries. His top target was Collins, who caught nine passes for 195 yards and one score.

One of the most crucial plays of the game came with 1:06 remaining in the fourth quarter on fourth-and-1 from the Houston 15-yard line. Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew dropped back to pass and nearly made a completion to Tyler Goodson for a first down.

However, Goodson dropped the pass, essentially securing the win for the Texans.

The Colts are now eliminated from playoff contention and are currently holding the No. 17 overall pick in the 2024 draft.

No. 2 Overall Pick Scenarios for Week 18

The No. 1 overall pick is already locked in with the Carolina Panthers guaranteed to finish with the worst record in the NFL. The franchise enters Week 18 with a 2-14 record.

The Chicago Bears are the recipient of the No. 1 overall pick after the franchise sent the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft to the Panthers in March 2023 in exchange for two first-round picks and wide receiver DJ Moore.

The No. 2 overall pick remains up for grabs with the New England Patriots (4-12), Washington Commanders (4-12) and Arizona Cardinals (4-12) all in contention for the selection.

On Sunday, the Patriots host the New York Jets, the Cardinals host the Seattle Seahawks and the Commanders host the Dallas Cowboys.

Here’s how the Patriots can take home the No. 2 overall pick over the Commanders and Cardinals, per NFL.com’s Eric Edholm:

As for the Cardinals, they’ll clinch the No. 2 pick with a loss to the Seahawks on Sunday and wins by New England and Washington. That would mean Arizona would finish 4-13 as opposed to 5-12 for New England and Washington.

The Commanders can secure the No. 2 pick if:

New Orleans Saints defeat Atlanta Falcons and two of Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans lose. OR All four of Chicago, Denver, Baltimore and Houston lose.With the Commanders and Patriots likely hoping to draft a franchise quarterback this spring, there’s a lot on the line this weekend.
