ESPN, PFF Rank NFL Offensive Players, Lines Across Multiple Teams

Entering the 2025 NFL season, several teams face scrutiny over their offensive skill groups and lines. The Buffalo Bills' skill-position players are ranked among the league's weakest, particularly their wide receiver corps, despite a strong running back group led by James Cook; concerns about Cook's touchdown regression and the overall talent deficit persist. Similarly, the Carolina Panthers' offense remains a work in progress, ranked near the bottom by ESPN's Bill Barnwell, with optimism placed on rookie wideout Tetairoa McMillan and a young receiving corps, though injuries and lack of depth at tight end pose challenges. On the offensive line front, the Panthers have improved significantly, moving from one of the NFL's worst to a borderline top-10 unit thanks to key acquisitions like Damien Lewis and Robert Hunt, yet still lack a true center. The San Francisco 49ers maintain an above-average offensive line led by Trent Williams and emerging guard Dominick Puni, despite some late-season struggles. Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers' offensive line ranks last in the NFC North according to Pro Football Focus, trailing division rivals who have made substantial upgrades, highlighting uncertainty in their pass protection as training camp approaches.
