Bengals draft order update for Week 13 as top-10 march continues

The Cincinnati Bengals lost in Week 12 to the New England Patriots after having a 10-point lead in the first half. The Bengals now sit at 3-8 and, even with Joe Burrow likely returning on Thanksgiving against the Ravens, their playoff hopes are quickly fading away. They are three games behind the Ravens in the AFC North and four back in the wild card race.

It's looking more likely that the Bengals will get a top-10 pick in the draft. As it stands now, they are sitting with the No. 8 overall pick in the draft, according to Tankathon.

The Bengals are one of four teams with a 3-8 record, along with the Cleveland Browns, Washington Commanders and Arizona Cardinals. The teams are tied for the No. 6 pick in the draft. Thanks to the strength of schedule tiebreaker, the Browns have the edge for the No. 6 pick, followed by the Commanders and then the Bengals, with the Cardinals sitting at No. 9.

The Bengals are only one game out of a top-five pick. And with an upcoming three-game stretch of Ravens, Bills, Ravens, the Bengals could be closer to a high pick than they think. They do, however, finish with three games against teams with losing records, including two with the same current record. They close with the Dolphins, Cardinals and Browns.
