wild-card round collapse Saturday night<\/a> was the Dallas Cowboys\u2019 gain. The Cowboys own the Packers\u2019 first-round selection this year as part of their return on the Micah Parsons trade, and Green Bay\u2019s loss locked that pick in at No. 20.<\/p>\nThe full order for picks 19-32 will be decided by playoff results \u2014 teams eliminated in the wild-card round will be placed into slots 19-24; divisional-round losers will hold picks 25-28, and so on. The first tiebreaker for draft positioning is strength of schedule, with the team that\u2019s faced an easier schedule receiving the higher pick.<\/p>\n
