NFL Offseason Report: Grading The AFC

Teams are listed by expected divisional finish (last year’s finish in parentheses), and include notable additions and subtractions from trades, free agency, and the draft. “+” denotes a team looks to be improved, whereas “=” shows a team didn’t sufficiently address significant weakness(es). Since this is the time of endless optimism, we’ll hold off on “-“ signs for now. Please also see the earlier NFL offseason report for the NFC.
