Right before training camp begins every offseason, ESPN In$ider puts out their “NFL Future Power Rankings” in order to project which teams are in the best shape for the next three seasons. The rankings are generated by a panel that consists of Louis Riddick, Field Yates, and Mike Sando.
How valuable are these rankings? Well, consider the Eagles ranked 24th in 2016 and then 19th last year before going on to win the Super Bowl. So maybe not very much.
In any case, Philadelphia’s championship success now has them ranked first overall this year.
