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 NBC 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.

Decamerion Richardson to make the roster

Decamerion Richardson to move — “some team might claim him on waivers”
some team that wants a special teams contributor who can add depth in the secondary might claim him on waivers
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
Price is the clear-cut No. 1 running back in Seattle
George Holani to be 2nd on the depth chart
backing him up will be George Holani, who gained just 73 yards on 22 carries last season
Puka Nacua to move to Los Angeles Rams
Receiver Puka Nacua, who clearly deserves a new deal, will eat up more of that money if/when the Rams extend a low-money rookie contract that expires after the coming season.
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Donald could be released by the Rams if he won’t relent on his $30 million — and then become a free agent. ... Donald could potentially (and the chances are slim but not zero percent) make his comeback with another contender that is willing to pay him considerably more than the Rams would offer.
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
it seems likely that the Dolphins have their eye on bringing in someone from another team to serve as the No. 2 behind Willis.
Kirk Cousins to be 1st on the depth chart
It appears likely that Cousins is going to start the season with Mendoza on the sideline
Fernando Mendoza to be 3rd on the depth chart
Raiders quarterback Fernando Mendoza might start his rookie season as a third-stringer. ... Kubiak seems to be in no rush to get Mendoza on the field.
Aaron Rodgers to be 1st on the depth chart
Aaron Rodgers is going to be the starter and the team has Mason Rudolph, Will Howard and Drew Allar behind him on the depth chart.

Odell Beckham Jr. to make the roster
The loss of Austin, who was expected to have a big role as the slot receiver, improves Odell Beckham Jr.'s chances of making the 53-player roster.
Taylor Rapp to move to Denver Broncos
Rapp, though, is expected to return to Denver at a later date, coach Sean Payton said. … “There's a good chance — a better than good chance — [that he re-signs].”
Shedeur Sanders to be 1st on the depth chart
it stands to reason that Sanders could see the field as QB1 as soon as Week 3, when the Browns play the Panthers for their home opener.

Shedeur Sanders to be 2nd on the depth chart
Shedeur Sanders did not win Cleveland's quarterback competition over Deshaun Watson and will open the season as the Browns' backup.

Shedeur Sanders to be 1st on the depth chart
Our guess? Even if it's Watson for Week 1, it'll likely be Shedeur Sanders by Week 3.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
it's hard not to wonder whether it will indeed be Watson... it's possible that Monken is inclined to give Watson the first two games, both on the road at Jacksonville and Tampa Bay
Odell Beckham Jr. to be 7th on the depth chart
Beckham is likely somewhere between No. 5 and No. 7 on the depth chart.
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
Veteran Zach Charbonnet is still recovering from a torn ACL and the Seahawks don’t have any other established backs on the roster, so Price figures to be playing a major role right out of the gate in Seattle.

Parker Washington to be 3rd on the depth chart
Once healthy, Washington is expected to join Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas as the top wideouts in Jacksonville's offense this season.

Terrion Arnold to move to Seattle Seahawks
they may decide to save the money they’d spend on paying Arnold to not play and wait to sign him once he’s able to practice and play.
Terrion Arnold to make the roster
Arnold, to no surprise , will land on the Commissioner Exempt list when he's signed, due to the eight pending felony charges that carry a potential sentence of life in prison.
Terrion Arnold to move to Detroit Lions
Unless the Lions have tried to void his guaranteed pay for 2026 and 2027 — and if Arnold loses the inevitable grievance — Arnold will be paid by Detroit.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
that points to the possibility that Monken has already decided Watson will be the Week 1 starter
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Donald, who has not played in the NFL since 2023, would appear to be leaning toward a return. Otherwise, it's unlikely he would not continue to work out at the team facility.
