The NFL Draft is about building for the future, but sometimes the future is now. Some teams really can change their short-term outlook with a few smart picks at the right positions, especially in the early rounds. So which teams succeeded and which ones failed in putting the final pieces together for their 2026 puzzle? And how did that affect the overall outlook of the league? Here are my post-draft Power Rankings, which set the stage for the 2026 season as the offseason comes to a close. Super Bowl odds: +40000 Some believe RB Jeremiyah Love will be the best player out of this draft, but how much is he really going to help a team with so many issues particularly along the offensive line? The Cardinals are still the favorite to get the first pick of the 2027 draft. Super Bowl odds: +30000 Their two first-round picks were good (OT Kadyn Proctor at 12, CB Chris Johnson at 27) and will help, but they need to get QB Malik Willis some playmakers. Texas Tech WR Caleb Douglas was way too much of a reach in the third to fill the departed Jaylen Waddles shoes. Super Bowl odds: +15000 Let the offensive rebuild begin with a much-needed tackle (Spencer Fano at No. 9) and two talented receivers (KC Concepcion at No. 24 and Denzel Boston in Round 2). So, whoever their QB is will have help. Oh, and competition, since Cleveland took yet another QB Arkansas' Taylen Green in Round 6. Thats three in two drafts! Super Bowl odds: +15000 They had a terrific draft, especially on the first two days, and may have gotten a steal on Day 4 with Tennessee CB Jermod McCoy. And obviously they got their franchise QB in Fernando Mendoza. Their future is brighter, but theres still a long way to go. Super Bowl odds: +20000 They had a great draft, too, adding three starters in the first round (edge David Bailey, TE Kenyon Sadiq, WR Omar Cooper) and their nickleback in Round 2 (DAngelo Ponds). QB Geno Smith has plenty of weapons now, but hes still a liability thats going to hold this team down. Super Bowl odds: +9000 They desperately needed a WR to help Chris Olave, and they found one at No. 8 in Arizona States explosive WR Jordyn Tyson. That could be huge for QB Tyler Shough and Kellen Moores offense. The Saints' defense still needs work, but second-round DT Christen Miller will help against the run. Super Bowl odds: +12000 They pulled the first surprise of the draft, taking WR Carnell Tate at No. 4, and now QB Cam Ward has several dangerous weapons. Robert Saleh added another edge rusher in the first (Keldric Faulk) and a linebacker in the second (Anthony Hill). This team is a lot more talented than it was. Super Bowl odds: +6000 No first-round pick, but they got two defensive starters in LB C.J. Allen and safety A.J. Haulcy on Day 2. Both should be solid players, but might not have a huge impact. The Colts couldve really used a receiver to replace Michael Pittman, whom they traded away. Super Bowl odds: +5000 This draft wouldve looked better if the Eagles hadnt stolen Makai Lemon from them in the first round. Guard Max Iheanachor, the consolation prize, might be a bit of a project, and second-round WR Germie Bernard was a bit of a reach. Taking QB Drew Allar in the third round was a headline pick, but hes no help to the Steelers this year. Super Bowl odds: +6500 Dan Quinn fell in love with Ohio State LB Sonny Styles, and thats great. But what this team needed most was offensive playmakers. They got Clemson WR Antonio Williams in the third, but they needed more, plus more help on the offensive line. Super Bowl odds: +5000 The fall of edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. to No. 15 could be great for Todd Bowles, and second-round LB Josaiah Trotter and fourth-round CB Keionte Scott will help a defense that needs it, too. And Georgia State WR Ted Hurst (6-3, 207) could eventually be a steal for a team that somehow has to replace Mike Evans. Super Bowl odds: +2500 They have been laser-focused on the defense all offseason long, as they should be. Getting safety Caleb Downs at No. 11 was a steal, since some thought he was the best player in the draft. And adding two edge rushers (UCFs Malachi Lawrence in Round 1, Michigans Jaishawn Barham in Round 2) helps rebuild their post-Micah Parsons pass rush. Super Bowl odds: +12000 Drafting CB Aveion Terrell into the same defensive backfield as his brother A.J. was a nice story with the Falcons first pick (second round). But that forced them to wait around to address their glaring need at WR. And they took a risk with the speedy Zachariah Branch, whos only 5-foot-8, 176 pounds. Super Bowl odds: +9000 They prioritized the trenches and got Georgia OT Monroe Freeling in the first, which is good. Their real prize, though, could be Tennessee WR Chris Brazzell in the third round. Hes a 6-4, 198-pounder with 4.3 speed. QB Bryce Young needed a big-play, down-field threat to take some pressure off Tetairoa McMillan. Super Bowl odds: +7000 Armed with two top-10 picks, they came away with arguably the drafts best LB (Arvell Reese) and best offensive lineman (Francis Mauigoa). Then they landed one of the best corners in Round 2 (Colton Hood) and a top-10 WR in Round 3 (Malachi Fields). John Harbaughs first draft was fantastic. Super Bowl odds: +5500 Trading away edge rusher Jonathan Greenard hurts their defense, especially their pass rush. But at least they stacked the middle with Florida DT Caleb Banks (6-6, 327) and Iowa State DT Domonique Orange (6-2, 322) in Rounds 1 and 3. Super Bowl odds: +1600 The Packers said they needed a corner and a nose tackle, and they got both with their picks in Rounds 2 and 3. But CB Brandon Cisse and DT Chris McClellan might be more about depth than immediate impact. They also still need a wideout to replace the two they lost. Super Bowl odds: +1700 Dan Campbell is all about the trenches, and he got help on both sides with OT Blake Miller (Round 1) and edge rusher Derrick Moore (Round 2). Moore taking some pressure off Aidan Hutchinson could really help the Lions defense. Super Bowl odds: +1600 They got an underrated edge rusher (Akheem Mesidor) in Round 1, but what they really needed was O-line help. Florida C Jake Slaughter (Round 2) and Memphis T Travis Burke (Round 4) may have to play a lot right away. Super Bowl odds: +2200 They used their first-round pick in a high-upside trade for DT Dexter Lawrence, then drafted underrated Texas A&M edge Cashius Howell in Round 2. Add in big (6-4) corner Tacario Davis in the third and the Bengals may finally have a defense that can keep up with their offense. Super Bowl odds: +1800 They desperately needed OL help and took big guards in the first and fourth rounds, including Georgia Techs Keylan Rutledge No. 26 overall. They also traded up for one of the drafts best defensive tackles, Ohio States Kayden McDonald, in Round 2. The Texans are stronger in the trenches now. Super Bowl odds: +2500 They didn't have a first-round pick and reached for a blocking tight end who caught just 36 passes in five years in college (Texas A&Ms Nate Boerkircher). Theyve got a lot of holes, and their offseason overall hasnt been good. Super Bowl odds: +1600 They had already acquired a big-play receiver in Mike Evans, but they added a deep threat who could pull coverage away in the draft when they took the big, speedy DeZhaun Stribling with the first pick of Round 2. They should have the most explosive offense theyve had in years. Super Bowl odds: +2500 They did what they had to do in the draft, finding a starting safety (Oregons Dillon Thieneman) and offensive line help (Iowa C Logan Jones). Everything else just adds to the depth of a team ready to rise. Super Bowl odds: +1500 They used the draft to reload on defense, taking the best corner (LSUs Mansoor Delane) and one of the best DTs (Clemsons Peter Woods) in Round 1. They made sure that when Patrick Mahomes returns, hell have a top-10 defense behind him again. Super Bowl odds: +1000 They traded out of the first round and focused on defense. Clemsons T.J. Parker makes them deep off the edge, and Ohio States Davison Igbinosun strengthens them at CB. Fourth-round OT Jude Bowry could be an instant starter on their line, and he might have to be. Super Bowl odds: +1600 Their most important job was improving the O-line, which they did with Utah tackle Caleb Lomu (6-6, 313) in Round 1. Second-rounder Gabe Jacas will help them off the edge, too, after losing KLavon Chaisson in free agency. Super Bowl odds: +1000 They hit all their weak spots, finding a road-grading guard (Olaivavega Ioane), an edge rusher to pair with Trey Hendrickson (Zion Young) and a couple of big receivers for Lamar Jackson (Elijah Sarratt, JaKobi Lane). Theyre a team that has it all. Super Bowl odds: +1600 Their wizard GM did it again, coming out of the first two days of the draft with two dangerous weapons (WR Makai Lemon, TE Eli Stowers to replace likely trade piece A.J. Brown) and a huge O-lineman (6-9, 346-pound Markel Bell), and he traded for edge rusher Jonathan Greenard. They are so back. Super Bowl odds: +1000 Replacing the Super Bowl MVP (Kenneth Walker) with Notre Dames backup RB (Jadarian Price) in the first round is interesting. They also restocked their secondary on Day 2. The reigning champs are a team without many holes, though. Super Bowl odds: +1800 Hard to argue the draft helped them when they had just one pick in the first two days. They didnt need a lot, though. The offseason addition of WR Jaylen Waddle made them clearly the class of the AFC. Super Bowl odds: +800 Theyre still the most talented team in the NFL, but they couldve locked that in by picking an actual impact player at No. 13. Instead, they took QB Ty Simpson, who wont help them until 2027 or 2028. This is still the team to beat, though.
