The War Room · 2027
The roster state the front office faced entering the offseason, reconstructed from last season's snaps and the contract ledger. Needs predict behavior; the risk bands are odds, never verdicts.
QB room · franchise-vet
Franchise veteran on a market deal; the room is settled.
Ten position groups ranked against the other 31 teams. Draft prior is the measured chance a team in this need state spends a top-100 pick there; corner priors deliberately ignore rank because corner drafting is need-insensitive, and the QB prior reads the room class above.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CB | +3.1 | 44% | 0.4% | 26.2 | 25% | |

Keep is the incumbent re-sign band. Contract structure and measured risk flags stay visible beside it.
