Welcome to my first 2016 NFL Power Rankings!

The Denver Broncos celebrated their Super Bowl 50 victory with a trip to White House a few weeks ago. But as they try to defend their title in 2016, the team won’t be the same. QB Peyton Manning retired and DE Malik Jackson and ILB Danny Trevathan are playing for other teams now.

Actually, all 32 teams are different from what they were in 2016, going into their minicamps. The draft and free agency has combined to changed the NFL landscape a little more than in average years. So in my 2016 NFL Power Rankings, you will see a lot of movement among the 32 teams.

Last year factors in big with teams has returning a lot of starters. Then of course, new coaches with their new systems will be a big factor. But the biggest factor of them all is each team’s schedule this year schedule as a few teams got by on easy schedules last year.
