ESPN's Football Power Index projects the 2026 NFL draft order for Round 1. Which teams have the best odds to pick early?

The Dallas Cowboys acquired a pair of first-round picks from the Green Bay Packers in the stunning Micah Parsons trade before the season. Now, they are sending a first-rounder back out the door.
