Niner Noise looks around the league and dishes out NFL power rankings for all 32 teams amid training camp in advance of the upcoming 2018 regular season.
It’s been a while since Niner Noise dished out NFL power rankings. The last time was just after the 2018 NFL Draft, and a lot has changed since the draft’s conclusion last April.
All 32 teams have started their respective training camps, and the regular season is just a few months away. Of course, there has been some interesting news and notes from around the NFL. A number of key players have suffered significant injuries, there are holdouts and whatnot.
When we last left off, the Los Angles Rams were sitting pretty at No. 1. It’s not a surprise, really, after the plethora of offseason pickups they made following their surprising 11-5 finish last year. Yet with defensive tackle Aaron Donald’s holdout, are they still safe at the top spot?
Meanwhile, the upstart San Francisco 49ers look to improve upon what was an exciting finish last year. Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has helped turn head coach Kyle Shanahan’s squad around in a many thought would have been impossible.
Less than two years removed from going 2-14, the Niners suddenly have thoughts of a postseason push.
And, of course, there are those Cleveland Browns, who seem to be hanging around dead last in nearly every NFL power ranking around. They made a number of key moves this offseason, though, so perhaps they’re able to jump out of the cellar finally.
Well, yes. They do.
