Even after trades, free agency and the 2026 draft, most NFL teams still enter the offseason with at least one notable roster weakness, the report says. The piece examines the biggest remaining holes across all 32 rosters, noting that a hole often reflects sketchy depth rather than a lack of clear starters.
The report says Buffalo faces a notable question at left guard after David Edwards departed for the Saints in free agency. The Bills have veteran options such as Austin Corbett, who started 11 games for Carolina last season and missed time with injuries in 2023 and 2024, and third-year Alec Anderson, who has been used as an extra tight end in six-lineman sets. Buffalo also drafted Jude Bowry in the fourth round; some projections see him moving from tackle to guard. The report adds that Joel Bitonio, who spent his entire career in Cleveland, would be a strong veteran option if the team pursues another free-agent addition.
The report identifies safety as the most conspicuous concern for the Dolphins, where starters are penciled in as Lonnie Johnson Jr., who is 30 and has started only three games in the past four seasons, and Dante Trader Jr., who started three games as a fifth-round rookie in 2025 and recorded 55 tackles. Behind them sit fourth-round pick Kyle Louis, a linebacker-safety hybrid, and fifth-round pick Michael Taaffe. The report lists available veteran safeties such as Donovan Wilson, Xavier Woods and Taylor Rapp as possible additions.
Depth at cornerback is singled out for the defending AFC champions, the report says, despite solid starters in Christian Gonzalez, Carlton Davis III and Marcus Jones. The top listed backup is Kindle Vildor, who is on his sixth roster since 2022 and has played only 23% of defensive snaps in games where he was active over the past two seasons. The fifth-round rookie Karon Prunty was viewed by many boards as a reach, and Scouts Inc. did not rank him among its top 300 prospects. Charles Woods, the backup nickel, played 117 snaps last season. Veterans such as Adoree’ Jackson and Rasul Douglas are mentioned as potential depth targets.
The report also flags the Jets’ wide receiver depth behind Garrett Wilson and first-round pick Omar Cooper Jr., with Adonai Mitchell projected as the third starter despite limited NFL production — 33 catches for 453 yards and two touchdowns across eight games last season with the Colts and Jets. Behind that group are 2025 fourth-round pick Arian Smith, return specialist Isaiah Williams and several undrafted players with little NFL experience. Finally, the report notes the Ravens were unable to retain Tyler Linderbaum and now have a major hole at center, with 2024 undrafted free agent Corey Bullock on the roster.
