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 KC Sports Network (podcast)’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.

And number five, Devin Lloyd... Number four, Zach Vaughn, and number three... This is Fred Warner... my final tier that's called move over, Fred...

Jeremiyah Love to finish top 10 at his position, by rushing yards
So I'm full send. I think he's one of the 10 best running backs in football already.
it is gonna go Kyron Williams at number 10... Kenneth Walker is number nine... he's sitting there at number eight for me... I went with Saquon bark Barkley at seven, Derrick Henry at six, and James Cook at five... I'm going Devon h Chain at number four... Jonathan Taylor... And Jameer Gibbs... It's Bijon Robinson for me
So my tenth ranked running back for this season is one player by himself, Jeremiah Love... James Cook... lands him in the Leonard Williams tier at number nine... Number eight, Breece Hall. Number seven, Devon A chain... It's Derek Henry at number six... We got Christian McCaffrey at number five, Jonathan Taylor at number four, and Saquon Barkley at number three... Number two, Jahmier Gibbs. And number one, Bijon Robinson.
So number 15 is Chase Brown. Number 14 is Jeremiah Love. Number 13 is Javonte Williams. Number 12 is Deandre Swift, and number 11 is Kyran Williams... Number 10, Travis ETN. Number nine, Kenneth Walker. And number eight, Breece Hall... this is number seven, Derrick Henry, and number six, Saquon Barkley... This is number five, Devon Achain, number four, James Cook, and number three, Christian McCaffrey... Number two, Jameer Gibbs, and number one, Bijon Robinson... He would have been number three. Push everybody down a spot. Kenneth Walker would have been number 10. Travis ETN would have been off my list.
It's it's Jeremiah Love sneaks into the top 10 of running backs, for, for 2026... Then Hall, McCaffrey, Henry, Taylor, Cook, H. Chan, Barkley, Gibbs, and Bijon.

Kobi Turner... give me him with the number 10... number nine, Leonard Williams... Quentin Williams is sitting at eight... it's Jalen Carter... Zach Allen is the stand alone tier for me... Old but still elite... Cameron Hayward... Dexter Lawrence... Chris Jones (I had him at three)... My number two player... is Byron Murphy... Jeffrey Simmons is the best defensive tackle in football.
Jeffery Simmons to finish top 1 at his position, by sacks
He is the best defensive and tackle in football right now... I think that is the case for 2026 as well.
Jeffery Simmons to finish top 1 at his position, by sacks
I expect Jeffrey Simmons to still be the best defensive tackle in football just like he was last year.
Number 10, Dexter Lawrence... Pela Carter is number nine on mine. Number eight is Osa Odigazuwa... problem causers... Kobe Turner... he moves up to number seven... Vita Vea, and number five, Zach Allen... standard bearers. This is Chris Jones at number four, Leonard Williams at number three... game wreckers. Number two, Quinton Williams and number one, Jeffrey Simmons.
We got Jordan Davis in number 10... Derek Brown... And then Vinivea... the Leonard Williams tier... Leonard Williams and Quinton Williams... my only stand alone... Byron Murphy the second... failed to take the torch. Jalen Carter, number four... Dexter Lawrence... the house that Mississippi State built. This is who's at number two [Chris Jones]. Jeffrey Simmons at number one.
Tucker has produced a consensus rankings of the top 10 as, agreed upon by voting for KC Sports Network. It's Jeffrey Simmons, Chris Jones, Quinton Williams with the Craig Stout bump. Big decks, Byron Murphy, Leonard Williams, Jaylen Carter, Zach Allen, Vita Vea, and Cameron Hayward have all achieved the top 10.
Chris Jones to finish top 5 at his position, by sacks
This is still going to be a top five defensive tackle season for Chris Jones because that's just the player that he is
Brendan Sorsby to be picked “day three ask pick”
I would be shocked if anybody uses a day one or two pick on him, truthfully. So you're probably looking at day three ask pick on him.
Emari Demercado to be 2nd on the depth chart
where you had Kenneth Walker and Amari DeMarco is your one and two
Jaylon Moore to be 1st on the depth chart
Jalen Moore is an interesting one at right tackle... I think that that is the bar for Jalen Morris to be a serviceable right tackle.
Chris Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Kairus, Tonga, and Chris Jones being your one, two starters
Khyiris Tonga to be 1st on the depth chart
Kairus, Tonga, and Chris Jones being your one, two starters
Like, they might have the best quarterback room in the league, on on just pure talent.
Chris Jones to finish top 3 at his position, by sacks
Chris Jones is still a top, what, three defensive tackle on football if he's not even the best.
Chris Jones to make All-Pro
I don't think anybody be stunned if he's all pro this year. Nobody would be like, wow. I can't believe Chris Jones made it.
