The NFC North finished as the strongest division among the Scout.com
publishers' rankings following the draft, but the Vikings didn't help promote
that ranking, finishing fourth in the NFC North.
Team publishers were asked to rank all 32 teams and those rankings were
compiled and analyzed. Earlier, we unvieled the overall rankings, but now we
take a division-by-division look at how teams fared. They are listed
alphabetically below because there are several sub-categories with each team --
where they finished in the division, where they finished among all 32 teams, and
the lowest and highest they were ranked among the individual team publishers.
With that explanation, here are the rankings by division for your own
analysis:
