The NFL Power ranking with the 2025 free agency period was largely played (Previous rank in parentheses):
1. Eagles of Philadelphia (1): THE The triumph is still quite fresh – And we are also at a time when the turn in advance greatly prevented a little of the old -fashioned reflection – but how great the Eagles of 2024? For my money, the 2013 Seahawks are still the team only one most impressive season of the 21st century. But Philly Squad from last season has a solid argument like the next best – for a year – during the last quarter of a century. And unlike the legion of unrealized dynastic hopes of Boom, the Eagles have a chance to maintain this success for a minute, especially after The retention of All-Pro LB Zack Baun. And while This list took the typical blow Most champions of the Super Bowl, the young talents of the pipeline are impressive and EVP / GM Howie Roseman is sure to add more During the project … otherwise a surprise at another time.
2. Buffalo Bills (3): Have AFC finalists last season been levied from Bugaboo chiefs in recent weeks? At least, the Buffalo perch at the top of the AFC East seems practically guaranteed to extend to a sixth consecutive year depending on the Extensions for QB Josh Allen and Greg Rousseau and the tremors of Ex-bolts of Joey Bosa And Wr Josh Palmer. Given the problems elsewhere in the division, the series of qualifying series No. 1 Chéri seems to be quite feasible in 2025.
3. Baltimore Ravens (4): Overall, the champions of the north of the AFC have it retreated in 2025 – and why not? The Lamar Jackson’s Ligue MVP seems to improve regularly from year to year and Now Deandre Hopkins Like its large n ° 3. THE Ravens looked like the best team in the league for periods last season, and who knows what’s going on if you Mark Andrews does not drop this conversion of two points In the loss of qualifying series in Buffalo? However, a team that lost twice against clubs lastly in 2024 remains too subject to self-sabotage.
4. Los Angeles Rams (10): As the Eagles were, no team pushed them closer to the edge of the playoffs than this one … at Lincoln Financial Field … in the snow … in the middle of a youth movement. QB Matthew Stafford, 37, and Wr Davante Adams newly signed32, are certainly not wet behind the ears but are on board for a Super Bowl thrust with what should be one of the NFC contenders.
5. Kansas City Chiefs (2): They found a way to keep RG Trey Smith, LB Nick Bolton, Wr Hollywood Brown and RB Kareem Hunt and should bring back Wr Rashee Rice (mostly) next season. But some key players have also left, namely all-pro G Joe Thuney, and the left side of a line O which has completely collapsed in the loss of the Super Bowl currently also seems suspicious.
6. Washington commanders (5): They take care with accomplished veterans – and more defective and more defective – like LT Laremy Tunsil and Wr Deebo Samuel In order to maximize their championship ratings before Qb Jayden Daniels became the richest man in the league (in 2027 or 2028). The professions leave the two Washington projects at least partially compromised, but the RAMS 2021 have recently proven that the choices can be surfaces.
7. Detroit Lions (6): Seed n ° 1 of the NFC in 2024 will return largely intact… between the lines. But how much will they miss OC Ben Johnson and DC Aaron Glenn, who both took care of head coach this offseason?
8. Green Bay Packers (8): According to figures, the 2024 team has improved significantly compared to the 2023 version. But that did not hold during the playoffs, where the decimated pack went to Philadelphia. But if Green Bay has all his guys in 2025 – and perhaps another substantial weapon in attack – Draft Town could very well find himself like Titletown.
9. Buccaneers of Tampa Bay (7): Apparently sustainable southern NFC champions have quietly become one of the league coherence models – a reputation only reinforced by Wr Chris Godwin the decision to make (far) less money To stay in Tampa than to sign elsewhere.
10. Los Angeles Loaders (11): For a team that has been embarrassed in the playoffs, it is sure that more talents came out than coming – largely and a particular corner of concern.
11. San Francisco 49ers (17): Perhaps no organization faces a greater variance of potential results than this one, the niners bench of the seasons back by QB Brock Purdy, RB Christian McCaffrey and Wr Brandon Aiyuk (if not by parade – to Green Bay – G Aaron Banks). But once and the future DC Robert Saleh has a lot of work in front of him with a younger and apparently less talented unit.
12. Seattle Seahawks (15): A team of 10 victories in 2024 already obtained a revision as important as any club in 2025 – which was probably necessary if the vision of the second year of the HC Mike Macdonald because it was going to be filled. However, speaking of variance in the results, many will depend on New QB Sam Darnold Stay in his pro Bowl polarity last season as opposed to the other extreme of his career.
13. Bengals de Cincinnati (12): Can you imagine how far Qb Joe Burrow could go If he had a cast of supported support like a cast like Minnesota … rather than The highest financially he asked Cincy?
14. Minnesota Vikings (14): Can you imagine how far this loaded list could go if it had a tried quarter-arre as, say, Burrow?
15. Cardinals of Arizona (16): They doubled their total victory in 2023 to eight in 2024. With the de facto MVP of the Super Bowl Josh Sweat now, the cards could be good enough to add four others to the Win column in 2025 … If they did not have to sail in such a nasty division.
16. Chicago Bears (21): Check once, ashamed to you. But with the arrival of Johnson to trigger the development of QB Caleb Williams, not to mention an interior fully improved to the offensive line – To say nothing about the reinforcements of the line D … we can no longer sust ourselves.
17. Denver Broncos (13): If new additions Talanoa Hufanga, Dre Greenlaw and Evan Engram can remain healthy – barely a data – these new edition broncos could be quite great.
18. Houston Texans (9): A team that is probably still the best of AFC South could also be worse than the eight NFC North and NFC West clubs. But with an offense in difficulty changing the coordinators while expelling Tunsil, its best – by far – blocker, reason to worry about how things are trendy for QB CJ Stroud.
19. New England Patriots (18): They allocated nearly $ 300 million contractually to free agents during last week and will obtain a premium talent at the top of the dashboard, where they do not have to force a quarter-back choice. But the arrival of the Pats Mike True Connommored Temple as a new head coach could be what restores this franchise to a competitive status much faster than some are waiting for it.
20. Dallas Cowboys (20): Even if their three big – QB Dak Prescott, Wr Ceeedee Lamb, LB Micah Parsons – perform to specifications, the other 50 guys can give Rookie HC Brian Schottenheimer Enough juice to put an end to the absence of the “America’s Team” eliminatory series at a year?
21. Miami Dolphins (19): Question-What do you get when you link a ton of money at a quarter-back and to the n ° 2 receiver often short-circuited by injuries to go with another world (if not often in a bad mood) WR1? Answer – Bengals South… which means the softer and less imposing version.
22. Falcons of Atlanta (23): They have The most expensive quarter of all time … Which goes essentially to the defeat of the goal of having a QB1 on a recruit agreement.
23. Carolina Panthers (25): QB Bryce Young obtained a passer note at least 100.0 in its last three departures last season… after having struck this reference twice during its first 25 NFL departures. If he and the rest of this list can maintain their progress from 2024, do not be surprised if 2025 ends with a miracle of the playoffs.
24. Jacksonville Jaguars (22): If the recruit HC Liam Coen can do for Qb Trevor Lawrence which he did for Baker Mayfield in Tampa, then the jags could have a legitimate shot to return to the top of an apparently winning AFC South.
25. New York Jets (27): The new QB Justin Fields is a low risk and high ceiling addition – which could finally adjust the Nyj behind the center … or put them in position for Arch Manning in the 2026 draft.
26. Pittsburgh steelers (24): Let us know who a quarter is, and we could have a more positive perspective for the 2025 season… Although Russell Wilson is clearly not the right answer.
27. Cleveland Browns (30): Let us know who is a quarter-back, and we could have a more positive perspective for the 2025 season … Although Deshaun Watson and Kenny Pickett are clearly not the right answers.
28. Indianapolis Colts (26): Let us know who is a quarter-tree, and we could have a more positive perspective for the 2025 season … however Anthony Richardson or Daniel Jones be really the right answer?
29. New Orleans Holy (32): Perhaps apart from the recruit HC Kellen Moore, it already looks like another side movements for a franchise that moves laterally – at best – since QB DREW BREAES retired four years ago.
30. Raiders de Las Vegas (28): Owner of the New Minority (Tom Brady), New GM (John Spytek), new coach (formerly) (in fact) (Pete Carroll) and now a new QB1 (Geno Smith) in the fold. What does it mean? Probably another last place and a continuous absence of the playoff series, in the short term anyway.
31. Titans du Tennessee (29): If They take QB Cam Ward at the top of the 2025 draft Or treat, looks like a long way to the relevance of Nashville.
32. New York Giants (31): If They exchange to take QB Cam Ward at the top of the 2025 draft Or not, feels like a long path to the relevance of East Rutherford, nj
