We are knocking on the door of training camps opening up throughout the NFL and soon enough the regular season will be upon us. While we are still in the final moments of the dog days of summer, we’re continuing to take stock of what teams have built this offseason and how each club could look once we get to Week 1, thus beginning the mad dash to New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX.
Throughout the past few months, we’ve rolled out various individual player rankings within specific position groups, pitting the best of the best against one another. Now, we’re lumping them together and attempting to identify the best offensive position groups in the league.
As you might expect given the talent in the league, this is no easy task and some high-profile players and groups were left off this top 10 list. For example, the 49ers backfield was one that just missed the cut. While they may have the league’s best offensive skill position player in Christian McCaffrey, the guys that make up the rest of the Niners backfield lacked the ability to lift the unit higher. Meanwhile, the Vikings wide receivers were also on the outside looking in. While some two-headed monster receiver units made the top-10, it was thanks to their No. 2 options besting Minnesota’s, raising their respective teams’ ceiling at that spot. Again, this is about position groups rather than the immense talent of a single player.
Now that we have a rough idea of the ground rules, let’s dive in.
Honorable mentions (in no particular order): 49ers backfield, Vikings wide receivers, Buccaneers wide receivers, Rams wide receivers, Ravens tight ends, Falcons backfield, 49ers wide receivers
10. Bears wide receivers
