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 Sports Illustrated’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.

Christian Benford to make the roster
In all likelihood, however, they'll need to add a cornerback to the 53-man roster this week. Whether it's an external addition or a current practice squad member, Buffalo may have to move Benford to IR in order to create a spot.
With Benford seen wearing a walking boot after Sunday's game, one has to believe he's in line to miss at least one game. ... the Bills may be able to get away with simply elevating one of their practice squad cornerbacks on October 4 against the New England Patriots.
Kani Walker to make the roster
From how it looked during the preseason, Walker seems like the next man up.
Walter Rouse to be 1st on the depth chart
Rouse, primarily a tackle, has practiced at guard and will likely be the top choice this week.
Wade Woodaz to be 2nd on the depth chart
it was fourth-round rookie Wade Woodaz as the next man in line to claim those snaps at middle linebacker. So if Al-Shaair misses any time, the Clemson product appears to be the next man in line.
Jaden Crumedy to be 2nd on the depth chart
the Texans opted to go with Jaden Crumedy as their backup defensive tackle... might figure to have a short-term role on Houston's front seven until Kayden McDonald comes off injured reserve
Atonio Mafi to be 1st on the depth chart
If anyone looks like a potential candidate to replace Carmona until either he or Slater return, it's 25-year old G Atonio Mafi. That, however, is a mere guess based on the depth situation on Carmen Bricillo's line.
Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
They'll instead move forward with Murray—at least for 2026—before again looking to figure out their future at the position this coming offseason.
Luther Burden III to record 6 receptions
Luther Burden III: six receptions on eight targets for 90 yards and one touchdown

Luther Burden III: six receptions on eight targets for 90 yards and one touchdown
Case Keenum to record 0 passing interceptions
Case Keenum: 17-for-23 passing for 185 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions ... I'd be surprised if he throws an interception
Case Keenum to record 1 passing tds
Case Keenum: 17-for-23 passing for 185 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions
Deonte Banks to move to Carolina Panthers
The New York Giants may want to trade pieces and forego the season with Jaxson Dart out for the year, and trading Deonte Banks might be a good idea.
Tre'Davious White to move to Carolina Panthers
At this point, signing someone with 19 interceptions in nine seasons would be a huge boost to the secondary, and the two-time Pro Bowler, at almost 32, would not cost anything at all.
DeVonta Smith to make the roster
Former UDFA DeVonta Smith was solid in the preseason, so he could be elevated, too.
Kristian Fulton to move to Carolina Panthers
They could want to get some value out of him before he leaves in free agency, and he'd be a fantastic option for the Panthers.
Jeff Okudah to move to Carolina Panthers
The Panthers could do worse than a former number three overall draft pick in Jeff Okudah.
Marshon Lattimore to move to Carolina Panthers
Marshon Lattimore is nowhere close to the shutdown corner he used to be, but he's arguably the best option in free agency.
Jaylen Warren to be 1st on the depth chart
his injury has now left Warren as the bona fide No. 1 option at running back for the Steelers
Brian Thomas Jr. to be 5th on the depth chart
It just seems like there is nothing really clicking for Thomas in the Jaguars' passing game right now, with him feeling like, at best, the third-option and, at worst, fifth.
Zach Ertz to be 1st on the depth chart
Ertz is expected to be a TE1 and be a reliable pass catcher at the position.
Tyquan Thornton to be 3rd on the depth chart
Did anyone have him developing into a legitimate WR3 (potential WR2) at any point in the season? ... For all the training camp hype rookie Cyrus Allen received, there's very little reason for KC to cut Thornton's snap count anytime in the near future.
Of course, having no Nico Collins hurts Houston's bottom line of being able to consistently move the ball down the field. That's going to be the case once again this weekend. (Week 3 at Indianapolis)
San Francisco 49ers 27 — Cardinals 14
FINAL SCORE: Cardinals 14, 49ers 27
Justin Herbert to be 1st on the depth chart
Quarterback: Justin Herbert
