Much like this year’s draft, the current landscape for power rankings provides a handful of very high-end teams up front and, from about team No. 15 to 30 or so, an idea that any of them could end up anywhere based on a few flips of a coin. While I think this season has the possibility of changing that—namely if some players such as Bryce Young, Drake Maye, Caleb Williams, Bo Nix and Michael Penix Jr. take a pronounced step forward and usher in a new golden age of quarterbacking that would make about half the league blessedly relevant—there’s still a long way to go and plenty of room for good old fashioned organizational incompetence to creep in.
