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.

Haynes King to make the roster
the Panthers may have no choice but to put him on the practice squad, where another NFL team will almost surely poach him and roster him, leaving him forever as a Panthers "what if."
Fernando Mendoza to be 2nd on the depth chart
The Indiana product needs as much experience as possible during this timeframe, especially since he could be on the bench for most of the regular season.
Marist Liufau to move — “on the trading block”
One of the players in Dallas who appears to be on the outs and could be on the trading block is linebacker Marist Liufau, the team's third-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Marist Liufau to make the roster
"Unless Dallas parts ways with Houston or Williams, Liufau is a long shot to make the roster and could draw interest from teams intrigued by his versatile skill set. Otherwise, he's a prime cut candidate."
Marist Liufau to move — “traded (9-out-of-10 trade probability) or cut”
In a recent post gauging the trade probability meter for some of the top trade candidates, Moe Moton of Bleacher Report ranked Liufau as a 9-out-of-10.
Mitchell Trubisky to be 2nd on the depth chart
Trubisky having comfortably settled into the QB2 spot
Will Levis to make the roster
Levis is perhaps the biggest name to watch as a cut candidate in this final week or so. He'll be playing for his NFL career on Sunday.
Cam Ward to be 1st on the depth chart
Now, with Ward calling the shots and Trubisky having comfortably settled into the QB2 spot
Will Levis to be 3rd on the depth chart
"... Levis has been reduced to a clear No. 3 option."
Will Levis to make the roster
USA Today's Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz had Levis at the top of his cut possibilities, saying, "... Levis has been reduced to a clear No. 3 option. With development a priority throughout the roster, carrying three quarterbacks seems like a luxury that Tennessee can't afford."
Andy Dalton to be 2nd on the depth chart
Dalton took a big step in locking down the QB2 job on Day 1 of the joint practice... The Eagles have a front runner for QB2
Markel Bell to be 3rd on the depth chart
If Bell can get his arm placement down on outside rushers, he'll lock down the No. 3 tackle job this week. That job is certainly trending his way.
Marquise Brown to make the roster
A good Day 2 of practice could push Brown off the roster bubble, even if his contract continues to imply he'll be with the Eagles.
Evan Engram to record 461 receiving yards
Last year, Engram finished third on the team with 50 receptions for 461 yards and one touchdown. He was targeted 76 times. I expect his targets to be in the triple digits this season, health willing, and that should translate to a significant uptick in yardage and touchdowns.
Jake Slaughter to be 1st on the depth chart
Jake Slaughter, new starting center

Jacob Spomer to be 2nd on the depth chart
Jacob Spomer, newly elevated backup center ... now is elevated to the backup center behind Slaughter.

Deane Leonard to be 1st on the depth chart
He, in all likelihood, will be starting opposite Cam Hart against the 49ers Thursday night
Deane LeonardLos Angeles Chargers
Carver Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
Considering he has spent most of the practice time with the first team, he should start in the second preseason game.
Hayden Rucci to make the roster
With George Kittle out, Rucci could find a way to slip onto the 53-man roster with two more solid weeks.
Brandon Smith to make the roster
his chances to crack the 53-man roster might be all but gone at this point
Brandon Smith to make the roster
Assuming he is released at final roster cuts and another team doesn't pick him up, however, Smith feels like a practice squad lock should he be relatively healthy
Trevon Diggs to be 2nd on the depth chart
it's hard to imagine this being anything more than a simple depth signing. He likely will play on special teams as much, if not more, as he'll play on defense.
Zack Baun to be 1st on the depth chart
Zack Baun is one starting linebacker.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. to be 3rd on the depth chart
He's very good and could very well start for a few other teams in the league. Just not this one.

Jihaad Campbell to be 1st on the depth chart
Jihaad Campbell will be the other one.
