The 2026 NFL Draft is over and bettors can now make decisions on future bets as most of free agency is over as well. These are going to be the finished rosters for the most part with a few changes as we enter training camp in late July. Let’s look at each team, their future odds and how they look after the NFL Draft.

(Odds from DraftKings)

Arizona Cardinals: Needs Before Draft: OT, QB, LB, EDGE. Super Bowl Odds: +4000

Arizona surprisingly took RB Jeremiyah Love from Notre Dame when they could have gone EDGE there or traded down, but took the electrifying Love. They didn’t address the quarterback position (with Kyler Murray gone), until the third round, when they took Carson Beck from Miami-Fla. It wasn’t a strong QB draft, so that pick made sense, but they didn’t draft an OT until the 7^th round. They did address the offensive line when they took G Chase Bisontis from Texas A&M. The Raiders took Ashton Jeanty with the sixth overall pick last season, and he struggled to find holes because the offensive line was awful. Draft Grade: C

Atlanta Falcons: Needs Before Draft: WR, CB, DL, OT Super Bowl Odds: +12000

This is a Falcons team that needs a spark from new GM Ian Cunningham, who will try to erase the mistakes of the past. They did not have a first-round pick and had just five picks overall. They had a ton of needs and it was going to be tough to fill them all. Avieon Terrell was their pick in the second round, and he’s another corner just like his brother A.J. Terrell Jr. Avieon is more of a nickel, but having two of three brothers at corner is certainly interesting. They should be ok in terms of communication. They also added WT Zachariah Branch from Clemson in the third round. He’s just 5-9 but runs a 4.35, so they get some speed on the outside. The key here is new quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who is likely to start until Michael Penix Jr. is back from injury. Draft Grade: C+

Baltimore Ravens: Needs Before Draft: IOL, OT, TE, DL. Super Bowl Odds: +1000

The Ravens came into the draft needing a center with Tyler Linderbaum gone in free agency and with their other guards struggling big-time last season. They addressed that need right away with the selection of Olaivavega Ione from Penn State. He’s a beast of a guard who allowed just two sacks in 2,231 snaps. They didn’t draft a true center, or this draft would be rated an A. Some questionable picks, including long strider WR Ja’Kobki Lane from USC, who is 6-4 but has struggled to separate. He should be a threat in the red zone. They didn’t address the tight end position until the middle rounds when they grabbed TE Matthew Hibner from SMU in the 4^th and Josh Cuevas from Alabama in the 5^th. Draft Grade: B-

Buffalo Bills: Needs Before Draft: WR, EDGE, DL, LB Super Bowl Odds: +1000

Buffalo traded back three times to finally get 35, so they didn’t have a first-round pick, but they wound up with two picks in the second round and three in the fourth round. T.J. Parker from Clemson was their first pick at 35. He’s an EDGE who had 11 sacks in 2024, but just five in 2025. They added LB Kaleb Elarms-Orr from TCU, which was a need considering the fact that Matt Milano is still unsigned. Skyler Bell was another need in the second round. The WR from UConn is a slot receiver with good speed and yards-after-the-catch potential. Draft Grade: C+

Carolina Panthers: Needs Before Draft: WR, TE, OT, S. Super Bowl Odds: +8000

The Panthers are on the rise. This draft was a solid one, but the addition of LT Monroe Feeling was more for the future, because the Georgia tackle must improve his run blocking. That’s also not a desperate need since they have two starting tackles. They added Lee Hunter from Texas Tech at DT, who will help against the run. Again, not a huge need, but it’s never a bad thing to help in the trenchers. They needed help at wide receiver and added Christ Brazzell II from Tennessee. He’s an explosive receiver at 6-4, who has run a 4.37 40. They also could have used a tight end, but did not address that need. They passed on S Dillon Thieneman in the first round and didn’t draft a safety until the fifth round, when they picked Zakee Wheatley from Penn State. Draft Grade: B-.

Chicago Bears: Needs Before Draft: EDGE, C, DL, S, OT. Super Bowl Odds: +2500

The Bears are not far away from being a Super Bowl contender. From 2019-2025, they addressed offense on Day 1. This time, they addressed defense, adding safety Dillon Thieneman from Oregon at 25. He can play in the slot, the box or deep safety. The drafted center Logan Jones from Iowa and then TE Sam Roush from Stanford to replace Drew Dalman. They also traded Garrett Bradbury, who is a short-term replacement. They reached for WR Zavion Thomas from LSU in the third round. They didn’t address DT until the sixth round when they took Jordan van den Berg from Georgia Tech. They also didn’t draft an EDGE rusher. Draft Grade: C-

Cincinnati Bengals: Needs Before Draft: S, CB, EDGE, LB, Slot WR. Super Bowl Odds: +2200

The Bengals have Joe Burrow, and if he’s healthy, they can go far. But they had to address the defense, and they did it before the draft by trading their No 10 for Dexter Lawrence II from Dallas. So they didn’t have a first-round pick and came up with EDGE Cashius Howell at 41 to replace Trey Hendrickson, who is now with Baltimore. He did have 11.5 sacks and 16.5 TFLs last season, but has just 30 ¼ arms. Will his 4.59 40 speed negate that weakness? They also needed help at corner and brought in Tacario Davis in the third round from Washington, but he’s not a first-round talent. Time will tell if moving the 10^th pick for a 28-year-old DT coming off a subpar season was a good move. Grade: C-

Cleveland Browns: Needs Before Draft: QB, WR, OT, EDGE, CB. Super Bowl Odds: +15000

The Browns usually are going to Brown. But not in this draft. This was a very strong effort with so many needs addressed with 10 picks. The key will be OT Spencer Fano from Utah, and whether he can play left tackle. He spent the past two seasons on the right side, but has 32 1/8 in arms, which might force him inside. They might not have a sure-fire quarterback, but they added two solid receivers in KC Concepcion from Texas A&M in the 24^th pick and Denzel Boston from Washington in the second round. Arkansas QB Taylen Green was taken in the sixth round and he’s an exceptional athlete with 4.36 speed and a big arm, but he needs to work on accuracy. Emmanuel McNeil-Warren comes in from Toledo at safety, has 10 forced fumbles and five INTs. However, the dreaded quarterback position will be the key, as always, for new coach Todd Monken. Draft Grade: A-.

Dallas Cowboys: Needs Before Draft: CB, EDGE, LB, S, DT. Super Bowl Odds: +2500.

The Cowboys added the 10^th pick in the Dexter Lawrence II trade with Cincinnati. That could end up being a genius move because they added the best safety in the draft in Caleb Downs from Ohio State, who is a can’t-miss prospect. They were awful in the back end last season, allowing 6.1 yards per play to rank 31^st, and were 47.3%  opponent third down (32^nd). They added another Lawrence in the 23^rd pick when they took Malachi from UCF. He’s an EDGE rusher, and they also took another EDGE in Jaishawn Barham from Michigan in the third round. They also traded for Rashawn Gary (7.5 sacks) from Green Bay, so they are in much better shape at the EDGE after trading away Micah Parsons to the Packers last season. They also brought in free agent Jalen Thompson from Arizona to improve the safety room. At the corner, Devin Moore was added in the fourth round from Florida, but that will be the biggest concern on defense. Jerry Jones and company were wheeling and dealing in this one. Draft Grade: A

Denver Broncos: Needs Before Draft: LB, TE, DL, CB, OL, RB. Super Bowl Odds: +1900

Denver traded away the 30^th pick and did not have a pick until the third round. The good news is that they picked up WR Jaylen Waddle before the draft, and they added an immediate playmaker on offense. Defense was certainly a need as they drafted DT Tyler Onyedim from Texas A&M in the third round and RB Jonah Coleman from Washington in the fourth. Onyedim is a run-stopper and had 5.5 sacks over 53 games. Coleman scored 17 touchdowns last season.  Draft Grade: D+

Detroit Lions: Needs Before Draft: EDGE, OT, IO, DL. Super Bowl Odds: +1800

The Lions need to get back on track and had a solid draft beginning with the selection of Blake Miller, a solid right tackle at Clemson for three seasons, who will force Detroit to move Penei Sewell to left tackle.  He should elevate the running game and the pass protection. In the second round, they took Derrick Moore from Michigan, who had 10 sacks last season. They took another Michigan player (shocker) in the third round, when the Lions chose LB Jimmy Rolder, who is versatile and can rush the quarterback. Draft Grade: B

Green Bay Packers: Needs Before Draft: DL, CB, EDGE, OT Super Bowl Odds: +1600

The Packers traded for EDGE Michael Parsons from Dallas and did not have a first-round pick. Then Parsons tore his ACL last season and also dealt Rashan Gary away to the Cowboys. So it starts up front, but with just six picks, they were limited in what they could do. In the second round, they chose CB Brandon Cisse from South Carolina. He was the best corner available and has long arms to make plays. They added Chris McClellan and Dani Denni-Sutton to help the defensive line. McClellan added six sacks last season from Missouri, while Dennis-Sutton from Penn State, in the fourth round, will likely be a situational pass rusher. This was a pretty good draft considering their limitations. Draft Grade: B-

Houston Texans: Needs Before Draft: OT, DT, IOL, LB. Super Bowl Odds: +1800

The Texans needed some help on the offensive line to help protect C.J. Stroud, who struggled last season. It started at guard with Kelyan Rutledge from Georgia Tech in the 26^th pick. In the second round, they added DT Kayden McDonald from Ohio State, who is 326 pounds. He had 67 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, and three sacks last season. They had another guard in the fourth round in Febechi Nwaiwu from Oklahoma in the fourth round and tight end Martin Klein, a reach in the second round from Michigan. Draft Grade: B-

Indianapolis Colts: Needs Before Draft: DL, EDGE, OT, IOL. Super Bowl Odds: +6000

The Colts lost QB Daniel Jones to an Achilles tear in Week 14, so that’s an issue in terms of his recovery. Defense is their biggest needed and while they didn’t have a first-round pick, they got a steal in the second round with CJ Allen, a LB from Georgia. That wasn’t a huge need, but Allen was too good to pass up. They also needed some pass rush help and found it in George Gumbs Jr. and Caden Curry, with Laiatu Latu, who had 8.5 sacks as a promising player. Gumbs (Florida) and Curry (Ohio State) were developmental and late-round picks. The key to this draft will be Allen and S A.J. Haulcy in the third round from LSU, who had eight picks and 12 pass breakups in the last two seasons. Draft Grade: B

Jacksonville Jaguars: Needs Before Draft: DL, LB, S, RB. Super Bowl Odds: +2800

The Jags did not have a pick until 56 in the second round, thanks to the trade to get CB/WR Travis Hunter last season. That didn’t turn out too well, but Hunter was injured. They drafted out with the selection of TE Nate Boerkircher from Texas A&M. He is a strong blocker, but had just 19 catches last season. That was a strange pick for the second round. In the next pick, they took DT Albert Regis, more of a need, and another player from Texas A&M. The steal was in the third round when they chose G Emmanuel Pregon from Oregon. CB Jalen Huskey was another solid pick from Maryland, who was also taken in the third round. Huskey brings very good ball skills.

Kansas City Chiefs: Needs Before Draft. EDGE, DT, CB, WR, OT Super Bowl Odds: +1500

The Chiefs focused on defense in their first four picks. But the most obvious pick was at corner after losing Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson in March. They moved up to take LBU corner Mansoor Delane at No. 6. This wasn’t a value pick, but one for need. He’s a very productive corner who forces turnovers and starts in day one. The Chiefs also struggled to rush the passer last season and picked up R Mason Thomas, and EDGE from Oklahoma in the second round. Thomas had 15 sacks over the last two seasons. They traded back in the first round to take DT Peter Woods from Clemson, who eventually might replace future HOFer Chris Jones. But he had just two sacks last season and projects as a 3-technique. Draft Grade: B-

Las Vegas Raiders: Needs Before Draft: QB, WR, OL, DL. Super Bowl Odds: +15000

This draft is all about one player, and that’s Fernando Mendoza. The QB from Indiana takes over for Geno Smith, who threw 17 picks last season. They still needed help on the offensive line, which they didn’t address until the third round. They chose C Trey Zuhn III from Texas A&M. In the second and third rounds, they went for defense, taking S Treydan Stukes from Alabama and EDGE Keyron Crawford from Alabama. Stukes has great speed (4.33 40) and can hit. A torn ACL in 2024 cost him some of last season, which is why he went in the second round. Draft Grade: A-

Los Angeles Chargers: Needs Before Draft:  EDGE, IOL, DL, OT: Super Bowl Odds: +1600

The Chargers allowed 54 sacks last season, so getting some help up front was crucial. Part of that was due to injuries at tackle. In free agency, GM Joe Hortiz added Tyler Biadasz and Cole Strange. They still needed help at guard and instead took Akeem Mesidor at No. 22 to replace Odafe Oweh at the EDGE. That was a strong pick as Mesidor had 12.5 sacks at Miami-Fla last season. Jake Slaughter, a center from Florida , was taken in the second round from Florida, and could start right away. In the fourth round, the Chargers took WR Brenen Thompson from Mississippi State, who adds tremendous speed (4.26 40) from the slot. Draft Grade: B-

Los Angeles Rams: Needs Before Draft: OT, WR, TE, LB, QB. Super Bowl Odds: +800

The Super Bowl favorite will have 38-year-old Matthew Stafford back for at least one season. They also added CB Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson to help heal their biggest needs, which was the secondary. Here’s the problem. For them to get to the Super Bowl, they need to address the offensive line, and instead, they took QB Ty Simpson from Alabama. That would be fine if they were not a few players away from winning the big game. They also needed another wide receiver, with Davante Adams getting up there in age, and the fact that they needed a third receiver. CJ Daniels was taken in the sixth round from Miami-Fla to fill that need, but he might not be ready. In the second round, they took Max Klare from Ohio State, a tight end, who was a bit of a reach. They did address their needs in the third round when they took OT Keagen Trost from Missouri, who might be more of a guard.

Miami Dolphins: Needs Before Draft: CB, WR, EDGE, S, OT. Super Bowl Odds: +30000

The Dolphins are in rebuilding mode, so they have many needs. They have a new quarterback in Malik Willis, but if he doesn’t work out, they can draft one next season when there should be a stronger QB class. Thanks to the Jaylen Waddle trade, they wound up with two first-round picks. They addressed their OL needs with the 12^th pick as they took tackle Kadyn Proctor from Alabama. In their 27^th pick, they took CB Chris Johnson from San Diego State. Proctor is a left tackle but is expected to play the right side. Johnson brings ball skills with 16 pass breakups and six picks over the last three seasons. Draft Grade: B+

Minnesota Vikings: Needs Before Draft: DL, S, CB, RB. Super Bowl Odds: +5500

The Vikes have two quarterbacks now in Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy, but do they have the right QB to take them to their first Super Bowl win? In their first pick at 18, they took DT Caleb Banks from Florida.  He can rush the passer from the interior, and at 6-6, 327, he has the size to be productive. However, he played just three games last season due to a broken foot, and he also broke it at the combine. In the second round, they took LB Jake Golday from Cincinnati, who will help with their depth. In the third round, they took safety Jakobe Thomas, who had five picks in 2025. They went for defensive help in four of their first five picks. Draft Grade: C-

New England Patriots: Needs Before Draft: EDGE, WR, OT, LB. Super Bowl Odds: +1600.

The Pats haven’t had a great time in the off-season after losing in the Super Bowl to Seattle. Mike Vrabel has had more to deal with than just his draft. However, the Pats are in pretty good shape with a young quarterback in Drake Maye and not a tremendous amount of needs. They moved up slightly in the first round to take Caleb Lomu at No. 25. He’s an OT from Utah who is a potential replacement at right tackle for Morgan Moses. They also added LB Dre’Mont Jones to replace K’Lavon Chaisson, but they could still use some help in getting pressure on the QB. Gabe Lucas was drafted in the second round as an EDGE from Illinois. Draft Grade: B-

New Orleans Saints: Needs Before Draft: WR, CB, EDGE, LB. Super Bowl Odds: +8000

The Saints will have Tyler Shough at quarterback, but they are still in rebuilding mode. They desperately needed a receiver and found one in Jordyn Tyson out of Arizona State at the ninth pick. He was the best receiver in the draft but has had injuries in his college career, including a hamstring issue that hampered his play in 2025. They also drafted DT Christen Miller from Georgia in the second round and he can push the pocket from the interior. They went back to Athens in the third round, taking TE Oscar Delp from Georgia, who will develop along with WR Bryce Lance from North Dakota State in the fifth round. Those are more developmental picks. Draft Grade: B+

New York Giants: Needs Before Draft: S, LB, WR, OT. Super Bowl Odds: +7000

The Giants were very busy under new coach John Harbaugh. First off, they traded DT Dexter Lawrence II to Cincinnati for the 10^th pick. They are certainly loading up on pass rushers with the selection of LB Arvell Reese from Ohio State. Last year, they picked Abdul Carter at three and also have Brian Burns with Kayvon Thobodeaux. Rushing the passer from the Edge wasn’t a big need. It was stopping the run as they were the worst in the league, giving up 5.3 yards per rush in 2025. Reese, who is 6-4, 241, can play the Edge or weak side. At No. 10, they went for OT help with Francis Mauigoa from Miami, Fla. They took a chance in the second round on Colton Hood, a corner from Tennessee. Not that Hood is a bad player, but he had just three picks in 20 games and didn’t have a strong Senior Bowl week. But he is also very tight in coverage. In the third round, they took Malachi Fields, a solid receiver from Notre Dame, who could be their No. 2 WR. Draft Grade: A-

New York Jets: Needs Before Draft: LB, WR, EDGE, CB. Super Bowl Odds: +20000

The Jets had three picks in the first round, so they couldn’t completely mess this draft up or could they? New York took EDGE David Bailey with their second pick in the draft, and that was a bit controversial because Arvell Reese was around. But the Jets needed a pass rusher more than a complete linebacker. Bailey led the nation in pressure rate at Texas Tech and had 14.5 sacks. He’s also a 4.5 40 guy who can get to the passer quicker. With the 16^th pick, they were fortunate that TE Kenyon Sadiq from Oregon was still around, and he was by far the best tight end in the draft. They also took one of the best receivers in the draft, who fell to 30 in Omar Cooper Jr. from Indiana. In the second round, they went back to Indiana to take CB D’Angelo Ponds. He’s just 5-9, 182, and is a slot corner, but did have seven picks and a 43-inch vertical leap. Yes, the Jets should finally have a pick this season after not having one last season. Draft Grade: A.

Philadelphia Eagles: Needs Before Draft: WR, OT, EDGE, TE. Super Bowl Odds: +20000

It’s never a dull draft when Howie Roseman runs it. The Eagles were reportedly looking to move WR A.J. Brown, and that likely came to fruition when they moved up to 20^th to take USC Makail Lemon. He’s not as big as Brown (5-11, 192), but he has no fear. They also addressed tight end by taking Eli Stowers from Vanderbilt in the second round. He’s more for the future with Dallas Goedert at 31, but Stowers is a playmaker. Markel Bell was added to help at offensive tackle, considering Lane Johnson is 35. Bell was taken in the third round from Miami-Fla. Draft Grade: B+

Pittsburgh Steelers: Needs Before Draft: WR, OT, IOL, QB. Super Bowl Odds: +5000

The Steelers hosted the draft and while quarterback was their biggest need, they went for offensive line help with their first pick. Max Iheanachor from Arizona State was their first pick, who is talented and somewhat raw, considering he didn’t play his first game until 2022 after coming over from Nigeria. But they don’t need him this season to play tackle. What they do need is a quarterback, and they may have found a developmental one in the third round with Drew Allar, from Penn State. Aaron Rodgers may return as the starter, but with Allar, Will Howard, and Mason Rudolph, they can duke it out in camp. They also needed a wide receiver and found one in Germie Bernard from Alabama in the second round, who should fit in well in the second round.

San Francisco 49ers: Needs before Draft: OT, EDGE, S, CB, WR. Super Bowl Odds: +1600

The 49ers were decimated by injuries last season. DE Nick Bosa (knee) missed 14 games and LB Fred Warner (ankle) missed 11. Yet, they still went 12-5 and lost in the divisional round. They didn’t have a first-round pick, and they had several needs. It started in the second round as John Lynch took WR De’Zhaun Stribling from Ole Miss. They also added some depth at running back, with the addition of RB Kaelon Black from Indiana. They didn’t address the OT situation with Trent Williams at 38-years old, finding Carver Willis from Washington in the fourth round. This draft was mainly about depth and having support in case they get decimated by injuries again. Draft Pick: B+

Seattle Seahawks: Needs Before Draft: RB, CB, EDGE, IOL: Super Bowl Odds: +9500

Seattle won the Super Bowl, but lost MVP Kenneth Walker III in free agency. So running back was a big need with Zach Charbonnet also coming off a torn ACL during the playoffs. Jadarian Price is a change-of-pace runner who was taken with the 32^nd pick from Notre Dame. Yes, the Irish had two outstanding running backs taken in the first round. In the second round, they took safety, Bud Clark from TCU. He’s a ballhawk who runs a 4.4 1 40 and has 15 picks in four seasons in college. In the third round, they took corner Julian Neal from Arkansas. They lost RIq Woolen in free agency so the 6-foot-2 Neal should work out fine as the No. 2 corner. This was a solid draft for an organization that rarely makes mistakes under GM John Schneider. Draft Grade: B.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Needs Before Draft: EDGE, CB, TE, LB. Super Bowl Odds: +5000

The Bucs dominated the NFC South from 2021-24, winning four straight division titles. They also do not have WR Mike Evans on the roster for the first time since 2013, and LB Lavonte David is gone for the first time since 2011. They still have Baker Mayfield, who gets another big receiver in 6-4 Ted Hurst in the third round from Georgia State. But this whole draft starts and ends at 15, when they chose EDGE Rueben Bain from Miami-Fla. Bain Jr. is a pure pass rusher with power and burst, who had 9.5 sacks and 71 pressures last season. He does have 30 7/8 inch arms, but it didn’t bother him at the highest level of college football. They also went to Miami to select Keionte Scott, a corner in the fourth round. He’s a potential slot corner or a safety. Draft Grade: B+.

Tennessee Titans: Needs Before Draft: LB, RB, EDGE, WR.  Super Bowl Odds: +12000

The Titans have a new coach in Robert Saleh (former Jets head coach), who brought in Brian Daboll (former Giants head coach) to run the offense. QB Cam Ward is the present and the future. They needed to give him some more help, and they did by drafting WR Carnell Tate from Ohio State with the fourth pick. Tate is a strong route runner who could have probably been taken a few picks later. A trade down might have made more sense, or a pick of Arvell Reese, but instead, they went for some receiving help. They did find an EDGE at the 31^st pick when they traded up to get Keldric Faulk from Auburn. This was a solid pick based on potential, even though Faulk had just two sacks in 2025. LB Anthony Hill from Texas was added I the second round to provide some help. Draft Grade: B-

Washington Commanders: WR, LB, S, RB: Needs Before Draft: Super Bowl Odds: +6500

Washington needs a healthy Jayden Daniels at quarterback, who missed 10 games due to various injuries. The problems have been on the defensive end, especially at linebacker, with Bobby Wagner turning 36 and the defense allowing 6.0 yards per play in 2025. With the seventh pick, Washington went with LB Sonny Styles, a former safety with 4.46 speed, who will replace Wagner and give the Commanders much-needed speed. They didn’t have a pick until the third round and went with another need as they went with WR Antonio Williams from Clemson. Williams is really good after the catch, while Kaytron Allen, a running back from Penn State, was a sixth-round pick. He might be a steal after breaking 30 runs of at least 10 yards with 15 TDs on the ground. Draft Grade: B+
