Draft-order ties are resolved by the cumulative record of each team’s opponents.  The team with the weaker opponents receives drafting priority.

Within a tied segment, non-playoff clubs are given priority over playoff clubs.  Priority of playoff clubs within a tied segment will be based on their advancement in the playoffs, but they will not drop out of their tied segment unless they participate in the Super Bowl.  The Super Bowl champion selects 32nd and the runner-up 31st.
