ESPN asked NFL analysts Mike Clay, Aaron Schatz, and Seth Walder to rank every roster in the league. They considered factors like talent, age, and production, and then detailed the strongest and weakest position groups, identified X factors, and selected nonstarters who could have an outsized role this season.

Quarterback is clearly the most important position in the modern NFL, making it almost shocking how few teams boast a truly elite passer and how many are desperate to find one each offseason.
