2018 Preseason Rankings

Don't hate on them too hard, did them in 2 separate groups and may not be the most representive.  But enjoy otherwise.

Overall 1
New York Giants New York Giants
Offense 1
Starting QB for now, 3 powerful RBs, 3/4 powerful Wrs, and gronk, definately in the running for the top offense if qb holds up
Defense 3
Lee, McKinney, and Davis, oh my. this is a stellar trio to have leading each of the positions, along with good young depth at lb.
Summary
11-1 Giants start the 2018 season as favorites to make another deep run into the playoffs

Overall 2
Pittsburgh Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers
Offense 6
QB locked up, RB studded out with DJ and Henry, WRs young and numberous, and Maybe TE, borderline top 5 offense
Defense 1
3 high powered bonified starters at lb, scary scary setup there with decent depth as well, DL leaves a bit to be desired, but budda Baker makes a case for lb types points, top tier d
Summary
Worst to first, maybe a bold take, but the Steelers have been farming young talent for years and its time they harvest

Overall 3
Los Angeles Rams Los Angeles Rams
Offense 2
Rodgers and Duke and maybe a shifted role for CJ make up a solid backfield, and a studded out WR/te group, should be a high powered offense again

Summary
Perennel power LA Rams, NFC West Champs look to continue their dominence

Overall 4

New England Patriots New England Patriots

Big names in the backs with Dak, Kareem and even sleeper Jerrick. 2 solid wr in starvin marvin and williams and a big te in Olsen looking for a comeback year, not super depthy, but can produce a lot of firepower

Offense 3
Titans have 2 potential QB's, at least 2 viable bodies at RB, And a scary WR group lead by the beast AB. and I think they can muster a TE, top 5 offense right here
Defense 15
Talent drops off rapidly after the superstar safeties and solid 2 lbs. could use some infusion of talent on the defensive line
Summary
Titans have been locking down young talent for a while now and looking to impress

Defense 14
Jets lack depth at lb after kendricks, but both secondary and dl have decent depth with some point makers at safety
Summary

Offense 15
Panthers hit quick with Lev Bell, Phil Riv, and potentially woods and Gates, but lacking in depth

Detroit Lions Detroit Lions
Offense 9
Stafford and 3 potential pass catching backs, a slew of wr with at least 3 viable options and Redzone rudolph. Could be a sneaky offense
Defense 17
Subpar unit that has some names that will produce, but overall woodyard, Perryman, and Houston wont sustain the lack of depth
Summary
Lions took the division last year, but will be hard pressed to repeat with the up and coming bears

Overall 14
Cleveland Browns Cleveland Browns
Offense 22
I believe the Browns will have a QB in the Bills lottery, TE is solid, RB has a time share guy and WRs are young and unproven
Defense 5
CBs are a bit short but newly acquired rookie safety along with 3 stellar lbs make up for it to bode a strong defensive unit
Summary
Browns have had up and down years, but could go well with a strong defensive team

Overall 15
San Diego Chargers San Diego Chargers
Offense 11
Starting qb, nice depth at rb, te. hurting at wr with 3 options that have question Mark, could morph into a high power top ten team if cards fall right
Defense 17
kuechley and the safeties sounds like a good band, but besides top dt cox, there isn't a full roster on d, while some weeks they may be formidable, others they will be lackluster
Summary
Chargers won the weakest division, and it may be the same story this year, borderline playoff team

Overall 16
Green Bay Packers Green Bay Packers
Offense 10
Packers have a high power QB, 3 potential middling RBs Decent WR lead by Julio and a viable TE albeit in a timeshare
Defense 19
Two top safeties wont correct the skeleton crew at the lb position, if the cards fall right this unit may sneak into the top half, but lethargic atm
Summary
Packer are a sneaky team in their division and could suprise

Overall 17
Philadelphia Eagles Philadelphia Eagles
Offense 13
Starting QBs , Check, Rbs, not so much, ODB and some exciting youngsters at WR and a potential option at TE
Defense 16
3 big hitting safeties and one decent lb wont cut it on the defensive side, workable cb unit
Summary
Eagles are ranked 3rd in division and will have a tough road to playoffs

Big Ben and Tyreek hill highlight this team as the rest of the roster spots are dependant on young guys, could be top 15, or could be lower than 25, lottery offense
Defense 10
A trifecta of good safeties, and 2 decent lbs are filled in with high potential CBs and dl, middling squad with top ten potential
Summary
Bucs may supplant other team in their division this year, but winning will be a long shot

Overall 19
Indianapolis Colts Indianapolis Colts
Offense 19
Goff at qb, depending on how committees workout may have a couple midrange RBs, te has to stay healthy, but we doh. 3 to 4 starters, however mlnot quite enough to make it to the top half
Defense 12
3 good s and two starter lbs makes for a very good foundation for consistent points on d. lacking a bit at Cb and a standard dl. top half d
Summary
Colts slide from last year as they won the division by a 2 game lead, Prove me wrong

Overall 20
Dallas Cowboys Dallas Cowboys
Offense 24
Brees and Gordon will rock out in the backfield, unfortunate injury to hunter and lacking wr will hurt them

Summary
Cowboys are looking better than past seasons, still work in progress

Overall 21
Cincinnati Bengals Cincinnati Bengals
Offense 23
Question marks all around, looks like a future good team if the cards fall right, Looking a bit rough atm

Poormans starting lb in Avery, to go along with top tier s and cb. middling group that may surprise, but lack of lb is worrysome
Summary
Bengals have a bit of work to do to climb their division

Overall 22
Minnesota Vikings Minnesota Vikings
Offense 12
QB is locked up, RB has potentential but is slim, Reed and AJ lead a group of bigplay, but not as depthy WR/TE group
Defense 22
Strong CBs, and a suitable dl situation dont make il for lack of playmaking lb, and a huge question mark as to what player quin will be this year.
Summary
Vikings may be a wildcard to make an impact

Overall 23
New Orleans Saints New Orleans Saints
Offense 21
QB is muddy but stilll possible, Some middle to low RB, and 4 chance guys at WR / TE
Defense 13
this team has average to below average talent across the board on d, however, there is depth and each spot is filled leading to a middle of the pack unit.
Summary
Saints could be a longshot team to make wildcard if everything goes right

Overall 24
Kansas City Chiefs Kansas City Chiefs
Offense 16
Shaky QB, one star rb, some upside at wr with at least one guaranteed star, te.. eh.
Defense 19
A spotlight name at each position, but with one viable lb, could be a rough outing for this d. good coverage in the secondary with s and cb
Summary
Cheifs remain stagnent as they are placed about the same as last years finish

Overall 25
Oakland Raiders Oakland Raiders
Offense 22
Love the potential with 2 strong RBs and young talent looking to develop, and te and we forming a solid foundation when the players are able to breakout.
Defense 20
Raiders using a draft pick to buff up a subpar lb core have a top guy now, paired with 3 good safeties this unit is shaping up
Summary
Raiders and chiefs for that matter could push for the weakest division title

Overall 26
San Francisco 49ers San Francisco 49ers
Offense 17
Wentz, Saquan, and Ware make up a backfield that hasnt looked this good in SF in a while. WR and Te are still thin, but 2 - 3 middling options
Defense 27
Cyp and some good CBs to go along with miles Garrett leaves this unit struggling with lack of depth at dl and lb
Summary
49ers are looking good for the 9ers, still a ways away, but off the bottom wrung

Overall 27
Seattle Seahawks Seattle Seahawks
Offense 18
Wilson Kupp Tate, and fournette, definately getting some names in the fantasy world which is new for the seahawks team, looking like middling potential
Defense 26
very similar to the 9ers, a safety, some CBs and a few dl players makes for a weak defense
Summary
See 9ers

Overall 28
Buffalo Bills Buffalo Bills
Offense 27
The offense consists of 4 wr, and maybe a TE in Watson, it may be time to condense the older wr in Nelson for some future capital
Defense 21
Similar to the offense, the Bill's D focuses on 3 pretty good players all at one position at CB. The DL is also pretty good on this team rocking Poe, Jones, jpp, and thomas. tashaun Gibson should out up some points as well, but lacking depth at lb
Summary
Bills are still subpar, and will not reach playoffs

Overall 29
Miami Dolphins Miami Dolphins
Offense 25
Hard sell on offense as starting QB and te may be most of the offense all year with wr and rb subpar at best
Defense 23
Dolphins have a game changer in Telvin Smith to go along with a solid S in Mathieu, but beyond that there is minimal DL and standard CB play
Summary
Dolphins have slid even below the Bills... Enough said

Overall 30
Baltimore Ravens Baltimore Ravens
Offense 26
The Tom and Cam party is back as the Ravens sport a powerful QB spot, RB is basically empty however, and some long shots at WR and TE,
Defense 25
Wagner and Adam's then a big drop off after that with a huge lack of cb.
Summary
Ravens take a big slide as their division seems to have flip flopped

Overall 31
Denver Broncos Denver Broncos
Offense 28
A lot of young talent and some high profile rookies to see develop, Sony Micheal or Ballage may carve out roles in rb and Patterson and Wallace are lower end wr prospects
Defense 24
Barren d minus a top lb. the CBS are there but overall a liability
Summary
Broncos move up in the world

Overall 32
Houston Texans Houston Texans
Offense 28
Matty ice and DeSean Jackson could have some weeks of glory, and Luke Wilson may have a role in Detroit. rough setup on offense
Defense 28
rough setup with wildcard Robertson as the top lb. solid Cb, however at one of the lowest scoring positions going to be a low power unit,
Summary
Texans in huge rebuild will have a hard time fending off the Broncs for last place
