Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where Pro Football Focus’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.

Josh Whyle to be 2nd on the depth chart
Josh Whyle is the likely second tight end option this season
Zachariah Branch to fall short of his draft cost (late-round fantasy picks)
While several third-round wide receivers are worthy of late-round fantasy picks this year, Branch shouldn’t be one of them because his upside appears limited.
Tyquan Thornton to be 3rd on the depth chart
Tyquan Thornton remains the WR3: While Cyrus Allen has received plenty of praise during training camp, Thornton remains high on Kansas City’s depth chart.
Kyle Williams to be 6th on the depth chart
It’s clear through the first two preseason games that Williams and Chism sit sixth and seventh on the depth chart.
Christian Kirk to make the roster
Kirk hasn’t been able to play with a calf strain and seems unlikely to make the roster
Denzel Boston to be 1st on the depth chart
Boston has secured Cleveland’s X receiver role after he, Jerry Jeudy and KC Concepcion started the first preseason game.
Malik Benson to be 2nd on the depth chart
However, Benson has played well enough in training camp to suggest he might be ahead of Thornton on the depth chart at this point.
Malik Davis to be 2nd on the depth chart
This suggests Davis is currently the favorite for the backup job
Malachi Fields to be 1st on the depth chart
That usage suggests Fields has won the starting X job, with Beckham as his backup.
Colston Loveland to finish top 3 at his position, by fantasy points
he is the consensus TE3 by ADP and rankings ... Fantasy managers can draft Loveland with slightly more confidence after this usage
Keaton Mitchell to be 2nd on the depth chart
Keaton Mitchell remains the RB2 ... we should expect Mitchell to see more snaps and touches than Vidal this season.
Jalen Brooks to be 4th on the depth chart
Jalen Brooks appears to be the favorite for Arizona’s fourth wide receiver spot.
Courtland Sutton to be 2nd on the depth chart
we can expect Sutton to be second given his long history with the team
Ja'Kobi Lane to be 3rd on the depth chart
More evidence that Ja’Kobi Lane is the Ravens’ WR3: Lane appears poised for a significant role in Baltimore’s offense this season.
Jaylin Lane to make the roster
That usage suggests Lane could be the odd man out if Washington keeps only seven wide receivers.
Omar Cooper to be 3rd on the depth chart
Omar Cooper Jr. starts for the Jets ... Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell appear set as the top two wide receivers
Calvin Austin III to be 1st on the depth chart
Austin appears to be the primary slot receiver.
Efton Chism III to be 7th on the depth chart
It’s clear through the first two preseason games that Williams and Chism sit sixth and seventh on the depth chart.
Xavier Hutchinson to be 1st on the depth chart
the injury to Higgins will likely return Hutchinson to his Z position. He will likely start there in Week 1
Laquon Treadwell to make the roster
Laquon Treadwell locks into a roster spot: Treadwell played only one drive before exiting ahead of the rest of the Colts players who started the game.
Jalen Tolbert to be 1st on the depth chart
should be considered the favorite to play Z in 11 personnel in Week 1
Chase Brown to outplay his draft cost
Chase Brown unlocks supreme efficiency alongside a healthy Joe Burrow ... these are the players currently at the top of my list for 2026 based on early ADP.
Ladd McConkey to outplay his draft cost
The Los Angeles Chargers have a new offensive playcaller, which should lead to a career year for McConkey.
Malachi Fields to be 3rd on the depth chart
Malachi Fields of the New York Giants appears to be one of three third-round wide receivers expected to consistently play in 11 personnel this season.
Devin Singletary to be 2nd on the depth chart
Singletary and Tracy are likely competing for playing time, and Singletary appears to have the edge. ... That could leave the Giants with a three-man rotation of Skattebo, Harris and Singletary in Week 1.
