NFL power rankings: 2026 draft boosts Jets, sends one division champion plummeting
The NFL offseason power rankings have been updated after the 2026 draft, with the Seattle Seahawks remaining at the top spot, while teams like the New York Jets gained momentum and others like a division champion fell. The Patriots, Eagles, and Steelers are among playoff-caliber teams with notable to-do lists.
The NFL offseason is largely complete, with the 2026 draft finished and free agency played out. The Seattle Seahawks remain at the top of the power rankings, having drafted RB Jadarian Price, S Bud Clark, and CB Julian Heal. The Los Angeles Rams and Denver Broncos follow, with the Rams' decision to bypass immediate quarterback help not hurting their ranking. The New England Patriots, despite a quiet draft, are still in need of a June 1 deal for WR A.J. Brown to change their narrative. The Houston Texans have gotten tougher and potentially balanced their offense with DE Will Anderson Jr.'s monster contract. The Jets gained momentum with their draft picks, while a division champion fell in the rankings.
