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 Sports Illustrated’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.

Athan Kaliakmanis to be 2nd on the depth chart
he's already falling behind Kaliakmanis in the depth chart standings ... the hand-drafted prospect in Kaliakmanis should soon combine his intrigue with steadily growing results to scale the longtime alternate. The risky quarterback is still several levels away from challenging former Offensive Rookie of the Year Daniels for his job
Ben VanSumeren to make the roster
Add it all up, and VanSumeren is no longer a roster long shot.

Harrison Smith to move to Seattle Seahawks
He is still trying to figure out exactly what he will do for the upcoming season, but the Seahawks might be the ideal fit for him... Smith would sign a veteran's minimum contract
Quandre Diggs to move to Seattle Seahawks
Diggs has gone unsigned for the entirety of training camp, but a return to the place where he had his best NFL success could be an option.
Donovan Wilson to move to Seattle Seahawks
Things might be different now that Clark is injured, as Wilson could be his replacement.
Bam Knight to make the roster
One question the Cardinals find themselves heavily debating is how many running backs they'll ultimately keep on the final roster — and if that number is indeed four, Knight clearly has that final spot taken.
Brent Austin to make the roster
The club is also evaluating undrafted corners Sean Fresch Jr. and Brent Austin for potential placement on the practice squad.

Trey Benson to move — “won't be on the free agent market long; some team is going to take a shot on him”
While the Cardinals were inevitably going to move on from Benson, we don't expect him to be on the free agent market long. Some team is going to take a shot on him, and he could end up being an interesting investment.
Cornelius Lucas to move — “likely to sign with a competitor this season”
Cornelius Lucas — Another veteran who is likely to sign with a competitor this season.
Wesley Bailey to make the roster
It's going to be very difficult for the Rams to keep Wesley Bailey off the roster.
Tim Keenan to make the roster
It might be within the realm of possibility that Tim Keenan gets cut and then stashed on the practice squad despite him being a seventh-round pick.
Dean Connors to make the roster
it's possible the Rams are trying to hide him and sneak him onto the practice squad
Jalon Daniels to make the roster
The Bucs have been synonymous with carrying two quarterbacks on their roster in recent years, but they may have to take a different approach this go-around and keep three to avoid losing Daniels to another team via waivers.

Travis Hunter to be 1st on the depth chart
then all arrows will be pointing upward as the Jaguars prepare for him to be their top cornerback in Week 1
Emmanuel Pregnon to be 1st on the depth chart
If Pregnon can impress this week like he did a week ago, he could very well wrap up the starting left guard spot for Week 1 vs. the Cleveland Browns.
Devon Key to make the roster
as a first-team All-Pro special teams ace, his place on the roster is secure
Devon Key to be 4th on the depth chart
Rapp's arrival could push Devon Key down a spot on the depth chart. Key had been the leader in the clubhouse to take Locke's former spot as the No. 3 safety
Jalen Milroe to be 3rd on the depth chart
The 2025 third-round pick is firmly third on the quarterback depth chart, and his performance against the Titans solidified that place.
