2026 Rivals: NFC North & "The Others"

But there's been a lot of conversation this week on lists and what it all means.

I really like Jeremy Fowler's series.

He does top 10 at each position based on what the NFL GMs say.

And I actually charted what his lists told us.

And I think you have to keep in mind, one, There is some motivation here by some of these GMs to gas up their own players like Daniel Jones got a top 10 vote.

So, you know, you have to kind of keep that in mind as your CJ Stroud who we're going to talk about soon got a top 10 vote you have to keep that in mind as you're going through this, but Luca, do you make anything of the Bills being a Super Bowl contender? Maybe the best odds to get to the Super Bowl out of the AFC tied with Baltimore, depending on which site you're looking at.

But when you factor in number of players on all the top 10 lists, they had two, Josh Allen and James Cook.

Number of players on honorable mentions, which is like the next level of just missed the cut, but we're right there.

And that's where you get Ed Oliver and Deion Dawkins.

No, not Ed Oliver.

Deion Dawkins and Dalton Cade.

Yeah.

And then, um, so that, that level, and then it was received votes, which means like literally anybody voted for him.

You have Connor McGovern, uh, Spencer Brown.

And did they have one more? They did have one more Connor McGovern, Spencer Brown.

Who am I forgetting? Hmm.

Well, it definitely wasn't Benford.

It, um, cook.

Allen, McGovern, Dawkins, Brown, Kincaid.

This is not fantastic radio.

We'll get to it.

But I'll go pull that here in a second.

I definitely counted up and there is that many.

But when you look at it, Does it bother you? Oh, Ed Oliver.

Ed Oliver.
