The Indianapolis Colts secured pick No. 29 and the Green Bay Packers are at No. 30 following championship weekend.

The first-round order in the 2015 NFL Draft is nearly set. Sunday's conference championship games settled picks 29 (Indianapolis Colts) and 30 (Green Bay Packers).

Remember, the order of picks 21-32 is a combination of playoff elimination order and record.

If Sunday was any evidence, the Colts need to go heavy and often to add talent on defense, especially the front seven. The Packers could be looking for a right tackle if Bryan Bulaga leaves via free agency. Green Bay also has three free agent cornerbacks, so that's worth remembering going forward.

That leaves the Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks to settle the final two picks. After that pesky game is finished, it's officially draft season.
