THE FINAL 2008 NFL DRAFT ORDER IS HERE.
Now that there are only four teams remaining, we have an excellent idea of nearly the entire draft order. I've even included all four possible contingencies based on the outcomes of the AFC and NFC Championship Games next weekend.
Keywords: 2008 NFL Draft, 2008 NFL Draft Order, NFL Draft Tiebreakers, NFL Draft Tiebreaker Rules, NFL Draft Picks, NFL Draft Ranks, 08 NFL Draft Picks, 2008 NFL Draft
1) Miami
2) St. Louis
3 or 4) Oakland
3, 4 or 5) Atlanta
4 or 5) Kansas City
6) New York Jets
7) New England (via SF)
8) Baltimore
9) Cincinnati
10) New Orleans
11) Buffalo
12) Denver
13) Carolina
14) Chicago
15) Detroit
16) Arizona
17) Minnesota
18) Houston
19) Philadelphia
20) Tampa Bay
21) Washington
22) Dallas (via CLE)
23) Pittsburgh
24) Tennessee
25) Seattle
If NE and GB win:
26) New York Giants
27) Jacksonville
28) San Diego
29) Dallas
30) San Francisco via Indy
31/32) New England (forfeited) and Green Bay
If NE and NYG win:
26) Jacksonville
27) San Diego
28) Dallas
29) San Francisco via Indy
30) Green Bay
31/32) New England (forfeited) and New York Giants
If SD and GB win:
26) New York Giants
27) Jacksonville
28) Dallas
29) San Francisco via Indy
30) New England (forfeited)
31/32) San Diego and Green Bay
If SD and NYG win:
There will be no draft because hell will have frozen over and the Rapture will occur. Hypothetically though:
26) Jacksonville
27) Dallas
28) San Francisco via Indy
29) Green Bay
30) New England (forfeited)
31/32) San Diego and New York Giants
Atlanta, Oakland and Kansas City all have the same strength of schedule. Oakland was 0-8 against opponents in common with KC, so Oakland must pick higher than KC. Since Atlanta and Oakland are in different conferences, that tie will be broken with a coin flip. If Atlanta wins the flip, Atlanta picks 3rd, Oakland picks 4th and KC picks 5th. If Oakland wins the coin flip, Atlanta and KC (as teams in different conferences) flip a coin to determine who picks 4th and 5th.
Other ties, (Denver beat Buffalo head to head, Chicago was swept by Detroit) were broken using conference/division tiebreakers.) Washington's strength of schedule is better than Tampa Bay's. Tennessee's is better than Pittsburgh's. Indy's is better than Dallas'.
The draft tiebreakers are as follows:
1) Worst record picks first, and teams are ranked by record, worst to best. A non-playoff team takes priority over playoff teams with the same record. Playoff teams with the same regular season record are prioritized by the round in which they exit the playoffs.
2) Ties are broken first with strength of schedule (total number of wins by 16 opponents, or average winning percentage of all 16 opponents, the result is the same)
3) If teams are same division, divisional playoff tiebreakers
4) If teams are same conference, but not same division, conference playoff tiebreakers
5) Coin Flip

What WRs will be available at #15?
I don't know. It's best to always have a top-five pick so you can grab a new dud over-hyped WR every year.
That reminds me. What's Peter Warrick up to these days? Oh, thanks Wikipedia. He was signed to the Las Vegas arena team in 2007, though he no-showed. He's now slated to play for Team Florida of the All-American Football League in their spring league. In his ample downtime, he owns an Applebee's in Sarasota.
I hope he saved his Dillard's shoes.
