The NFL constantly seeks to rebalance itself by assigning the first picks to the teams who won the fewest games in the previous campaign.
In theory, this should steadily improve the lower-quality teams while reining in the elite, though this isn't always the case, as the Kansas City Chiefs have demonstrated.
You can expect the unexpected, expect players to be left on the shelf long after their anticipated landing spots have come and gone, and expect general managers' phones to be buzzing constantly throughout the night as all manner of trades whizz through the system.
