Ranking 2024 NFL rosters: Best projected starting lineups

A lot has changed since we last saw all 32 NFL teams on the field. Every franchise has reloaded with new talent from the draft, free agency and trades -- some more than others. But now that we are through the offseason's flurry of moves (save for a few summer additions in the coming months), how do the teams' rosters stack up?

We asked NFL analysts Mike Clay, Aaron Schatz and Seth Walder to rank every NFL lineup, then combined their rankings to come up with our final list from the league's best to its worst. Talent, age and production of the players were all factored in.

Then we took it a step further: Clay detailed the strongest and weakest units for all 32 squads; Walder picked X factors to watch; and Schatz found nonstarters who could make big contributions off the bench this season. And the projected starting lineups below are via Clay's projections. Let's get to it. Here's how each roster stacks up heading into the 2024 season.
