NFL Power Rankings Based on Super Bowl Odds Following 2023 NFL Draft
By Peter Dewey
The 2023 NFL Draft has come to a close, with several teams finding (hopefully) a franchise quarterback in the process.
Bryce Young landed with the Carolina Panthers with the No. 1 overall pick while the Houston Texans took C.J. Stroud (No. 2) and the Indianapolis Colts took Anthony Richardson (No. 4).
Every year, there are overreactions to the draft, and sometimes it can move the odds in the futures market. Let's see how things stack up following this year's draft:
1. Kansas City Chiefs (+600)
The Chiefs had a solid draft, but all that really matters is the guy they have playing quarterback.
2. Philadelphia Eagles (+750)
The Philadelphia "Georgia Bulldogs?" The Eagles took three Georgia defenders: Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Kelee Ringo, putting together one of the best drafts in the league.
3. Cincinnati Bengals (+850)
The Bengals went pretty defense heavy, which should help them replace the losses of Jessie Bates and Vonn Bell.
4. San Francisco 49ers (+700)
The 49ers didn't pick until No. 87, but they still have one of the best rosters in the league.
5. Buffalo Bills (+850)
The Bills added another weapon for Josh Allen in Dalton Kincaid, and they should have an elite offense again in 2023.
6. Dallas Cowboys (+1400)
I didn't mind Dallas' draft, but the team didn't hit as big as the Eagles, which isn't great for the chances of winning the division.
7. Baltimore Ravens (+2500)
I love the Ravens getting Zay Flowers, but the key was the team re-signing Lamar Jackson which makes them an immediate Super Bowl contender.
8. New York Jets (+1400)
The draft doesn't matter for this team. The Jets finally landed Aaron Rodgers.
9. Jacksonville Jaguars (+2800)
The Jaguars added more protection for Trevor Lawrence with Anton Harrison, which is key with Cam Robinson set to be suspended.
10. Miami Dolphins (+2500)
The Dolphins had limited picks, but Cam Smith should make their secondary one of the best in the NFL alongside Xavien Howard and Jalen Ramsey.
11. Los Angeles Chargers (+2500)
Another weapon for the Los Angeles Chargers in Quentin Johnson, who should thrive with Justin Herbert.
12. New York Giants (+4000)
The Giants may have gotten a bit of steal with WR Jaylin Hyatt at No. 73 overall. They should be in the playoff mix in the NFC.
13. Detroit Lions (+2500)
The Lions got a ton of talent, including Brian Branch in the second round, but I hated their move of taking Jahmyr Gibbs at No. 12.
14. Cleveland Browns (+2800)
Deshaun Watson better be worth all the picks the Browns moved...
15. Seattle Seahawks (+4000)
I LOVE Seattle's first round, grabbing corner Devon Witherspoon and the class' No. 1 receiver in Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
16. Las Vegas Raiders (+4000)
The Raiders drafted their Darren Waller replacement in Michael Mayer, and I love their pick of Tyree Wilson in Round 1.
17. Minnesota Vikings (+4500)
Minnesota took Jordan Addison to replace the loss of Adam Thielen this offseason.
18. Denver Broncos (+2500)
The Broncos draft was limited due to the Russell Wilson and Sean Payton trades. Those two are the only chance for Denver to truly turn this thing around.
19. Pittsburgh Steelers (+5000)
The Steelers had a solid draft, especially since they landed Joey Porter Jr. in the second round.
20. Los Angeles Rams (+6000)
The Rams improved their offensive line and made a ton of late-round picks, but can this veteran roster become a contender again?
21. Green Bay Packers (+5000)
The Packers still went defense in round one, but they added three weapons for Jordan Love (Luke Musgrave, Tucker Kraft and Jayden Reed).
22. New England Patriots (+6000)
It's hard not to love the Patriots moving back to get consensus top-10 pick Christian Gonzalez at No. 17.
23. New Orleans Saints (+3500)
The Saints went defense-heavy early in this year's draft. Their ceiling will depend on Derek Carr having a bounce-back season.
24. Carolina Panthers (+7500)
Bryce Young is the guy in Carolina, but will the roster around him be good enough to compete for the playoffs?
25. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6500)
The Bucs didn't take a quarterback, which means it's Kyle Trask or Baker Mayfield in 2023.
26. Chicago Bears (+5000)
I really love the Bears getting a ton of talent, but their move to trade from No. 9 to No. 10 and miss out on Jalen Carter could be looked at as a bad move if Darnell Wright doesn't pan out.
27. Tennessee Titans (+8000)
The Titans moved up in the second round to take quarterback Will Levis, who may make starts in 2023.
28. Washington Commanders (+6000)
I felt like Washington reached a bit for Emmanuel Forbes with Christian Gonzalez still on the board in Round 1. The team is facing an uphill battle in a loaded NFC East.
29. Atlanta Falcons (+7000)
A running back, at No. 8? I get that Bijan Robinson is a generational athlete, but the Falcons need much more than a RB to be a playoff team.
30. Indianapolis Colts (+10000)
I love the Colts taking Anthony Richardson at No. 4, as he's arguably the QB with the most potential in this draft.
31. Arizona Cardinals (+20000)
The Cardinals improved a weak roster in the draft, making a great trade out of the No. 3 spot. I'm not sure it helps them enough in 2023, though.
32. Houston Texans (+20000)
Houston is going all in on Will Anderson and CJ Stroud. It may pay off, but losing a first in 2024 is concerning.
