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 CBS Sports’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.

Arizona Cardinals to beat Carolina Panthers
The Cardinals haven't won a preseason game away from home since 2023, but I like them at +1.5 here.
Chase Bisontis to be 2nd on the depth chart
It sounds as though he will begin the season as a key reserve so preseason repetitions are invaluable.
Jacoby Brissett to be 1st on the depth chart
Veteran Jacoby Brissett is the anticipated Week 1 starter and there is no timeline for the Miami product to take over.
Travis Kelce to record 700 receiving yards
His career floor has always been upwards of 700 yards and at least a few touchdowns, and it is fair to expect him to remain among the most productive tight ends in the NFL in those regards.
Stefon Diggs to be 2nd on the depth chart
The Washington Commanders now have the high-level No. 2 wide receiver ... that role is now filled by Diggs
Stefon Diggs to move to Washington Commanders
He is set to sign with the Commanders, per an ESPN report. The reported terms are a one-year deal worth up to $12 million, according to ESPN.
Kenneth Walker III to record 949.5 rushing yards
Walker is set at Over/Under 949.5 rushing yards, and I lean Over as long as he stays healthy.
Kansas City Chiefs to finish with ? wins
A bounce-back year ought to be on deck in the sense that the Chiefs will win more than six games ... the Chiefs should be expected to win at least a couple of more games than they did in their anomalous letdown season.
Mansoor Delane to be 1st on the depth chart
Kansas City then used the No. 6 overall pick on ready-made starting cornerback Mansoor Delane
DK Metcalf to be 1st on the depth chart
Rodgers has also continued to strengthen his rapport with DK Metcalf (who continues to be Rodgers' unquestioned primary option)
Roman Wilson to be 1st on the depth chart
Roman Wilson, after two tumultuous seasons, has had a strong training camp and at this point has a firm hold of the starting slot position.
Cameron Thomas to be 1st on the depth chart
his looming absence leaves a sizable hole in the starting lineup. Samson Ebukam and Cameron Thomas are next in line and will be tasked with stepping into a larger role than expected.

Cleveland Browns to finish with 6 wins
"I would say this, and we never do this, but I think the odds are for us to win five and a half games," Haslam said. "I'll take the over."
Cleveland Browns to finish with 6 wins
this team does have one of the best defenses in the NFL -- even without Garrett -- and that might be enough to carry Cleveland to at least six wins... This certainly feels like a schedule where the Browns can eke out six wins
George Pickens to move to Dallas Cowboys
the 2026 season will likely be his last in Dallas ... Next offseason, the Cowboys will likely end up either tagging and trading Pickens or allowing him to walk in free agency in exchange for a third-round compensatory draft pick
Tony Rojas to be picked “Day 2” (picks 33–100)
Early grade: Day 2 ... if he's even the same guy he was last year you can put him down safely as a Day 2 pick.
Jalen Graham to be picked “Early Day 3” (picks 101–179)
Player type: Weakside linebacker / Early grade: Early Day 3
Sammy Brown to be 1st linebacker off the board
The No. 1 prospect in the class I don't see changing, though, as he could play his way into a top half of Round 1 selection.
Arion Carter to be among the top 10 linebackers linebacker off the board
I can almost guarantee that Carter is going to be drafted among the top 10 linebackers when he declares.
Jordan Hall to be picked “Early Day 3” (picks 101–179)
Player type: Two-down linebacker / Early grade: Early Day 3
Top 10 linebackers of the 2027 draft class, ranked from Sammy Brown (Clemson) through Jordan Hall (Michigan State), with Perkins noted as "No. 5 on this list".
Sammy Brown to be picked “Round 1”
Early grade: Round 1 — Brown has all the makings of a first-round linebacker
Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)
Player type: Hybrid rusher / Early grade: Early Day 2
Xavier Atkins to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)
Player type: Weakside linebacker / Early grade: Early Day 2
