Peter BukowskiAug 7, 2026
Bukowski argues several Packers were mis-ranked on the Locked On Top 100 and predicts breakouts: Tucker Kraft will make next year's top 100 if healthy, Evan Williams will be in Pro Bowl and top-100 conversations a year from now, Quay Walker/Edgerrin Cooper will produce better in the new scheme, and Christian Watson could sneak on the list if the Packers have the No. 1 offense. They also say they would not predict Watson replicating their half-season over a full year.

How each call scored
3 checkable claims — 2 pro bowl and all-pro calls and 1 positional finish — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the rest of the room.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
