[QUOTE=Ugly Duck;8636668]You mean stuff like this? ESPN sees a better future for Denver (even post-Manning) than it does for for KC & Oaktown.

ESPN Insider.....NFL Future Power Rankings: Evaluating the core of every franchise as it projects for the 2015 season By Trent Dilfer, Mel Kiper, Gary Horton, Matt Williamson

San Diego: Ranked 15th

Roster: The Chargers have some promising youth at running back, wide receiver, linebacker and defensive line, but the offensive line really has me worried -- and rebuilding a front five isn't easy to pull off. I would also like to see some defensive star power emerge. DE Melvin Ingram could be exactly that type of addition. -- Williamson

Quarterback: The 2011 campaign was a crossroads season for Philip Rivers. Now 30, this coming season could help define the direction for his career. He hasn't won a playoff game since 2008, even as he has put up big numbers. I expect him to bounce back from a 20-INT 2011, but he needs help -- TE Antonio Gates can't play forever. -- Dilfer

Draft: The 2010 draft will be called a bust if RB Ryan Mathews can't become a true No. 1 back. But 2011 and 2012 have served to add depth and potentially a difference-maker or two. If Ingram becomes a star, don't be surprised. -- Kiper

Front office: The Chargers' front office has come under a lot of scrutiny of late -- and deserved much of it. I have mixed feelings for how well this team is built for three years down the road. And where will Rivers be at that point? -- Williamson

Coaching: Norv Turner, a great offensive mind, is perennially on the hot seat as head coach. He needs to put together an impressive season in 2012 or we could certainly see someone new roaming the sidelines in San Diego. -- Williamson

Denver: Ranked 18th

Roster: LB Von Miller should be among the best defensive players in the NFL in 2015, but overall, I don't see a wealth of real young talent on Denver's roster. This past draft was marginal, as I don't see an immediate starter in the group. -- Williamson

Quarterback: His full recovery isn't yet complete, but Peyton Manning looks good. There's no real debate: fully healthy, he gives Denver one of the best handful of QBs in the NFL. The shelf-life is a question, but at 36, Manning can give them several elite years. Brock Osweiler awaits, though he needs time. -- Dilfer

Draft: Still amazing that Tim Tebow went in Round 1, but Miller was a home run the following year. It's all about maximizing the three to four years of the Peyton Manning tenure now. -- Kiper

Front office: John Elway is new at this and the jury is still out, but you have to commend this front office for bringing in a Hall of Fame quarterback to lead the team. How will this team look in 2015 without Manning? Who knows. But by making a bold move in adding Manning they've earned my faith that they can properly manage that hurdle when the time comes. -- Williamson

Coaching: John Fox is an established and respected head coach who adjusted his offense for his quarterback last season and should do the same with a much better QB in 2012. Fox seems like an excellent fit in Denver now and for years ahead. -- Williamson

Kansas City: Ranked 25th

Roster: With the exception of the QB position, which doesn't factor in with this category, I love the Chiefs' young group of high-end talent in players such as S Eric Berry, TE Tony Moeaki and LB Justin Houston. They are loaded going forward and I think coach Romeo Crennel & Co. will make a star out of NT Dontari Poe. -- Williamson

I saw this yesterday and it makes no sense. Their top 10 was pretty much a mirror of the top 10 teams now. Thats just not going to happen. This project was a waste of time. ESPN is really mailing it in now a days.
