ERDs are a great way to visualize your database, but are usually organized in the wrong way for programmers. Most ERDs plaster the tables anywhere and have the relationship connections going all over the place.
One of the easiest ways to organize an ERD so programmers can understand it is to arrange the ERD from significant tables to the insignificant tables.
To find the most significant tables just count the number of connections a table has and arrange your ERD from left being the most significant to right being the insignificant tables.
