NFL power rankings: Breaking down the four tiers of teams this preseason

From teams vying for the No. 1 pick to those with Super Bowl hopes, Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the four tiers of teams in this year's first edition of our NFL power rankings.

The NFL preseason is underway and Friday brings five games for fans to enjoy. 

Jalen Hurts and the Eagles, who ended last season in second place in the NFC East, host New York Jets second-year quarterback Zach Wilson and top-10 draft picks Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner and Garrett Wilson.

The game at Lincoln Financial Field will kick off Nick Sirianni's second year as head coach of the Eagles. In Sirianni's first year, the team ended with a 9-8-0 record.

A star-studded rookie class -- on both sides of the ball -- will get a chance on the field, as starters will only play one or two series, according to Sirianni.

In their last meeting, the Eagles defeated the Jets, 33-18, on Dec. 5, 2021.

The New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles meet up in Week 1 of the 2022 NFL preseason at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET and the game will air on WCBS-TV (CBS 2) in New York and WCAU (NBC 10) in Philadelphia. Given that this is the preseason, we’ll see plenty of unknown and lesser-known faces on the rosters. To keep track of who you’re watching, check out the Jets roster and the Eagles roster.

The Jets are entering year two of the Zach Wilson era, looking to take a major jump. They finished 4-13 last season but added two first-round picks in Ohio State wide receiver Garrett Wilson and Florida State defensive end Jermaine Johnson. The Eagles made the final wild card last season before losing 31-15 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the playoffs. It’s prove-it time for quarterback Jalen Hurts, he has DeVonta Smith and A.J Brown at receiver now, but he must improve as a passer.

The Jets are a 1-point favorite at DraftKings Sportsbook and -125 on the moneyline. The Eagles are a +105 moneyline underdog. The point total is installed at 35.5.

Bryant Young straddled the classic football divide between discipline and ferocity more adeptly than just about any player of his generation.

For every minute of a 14-year NFL career spent entirely with the San Francisco 49ers, Young was a model teammate and a soft-spoken leader who selflessly made everybody around him better.

And for 60 minutes on most autumn Sundays, Young was one of the most intimidating, vicious defensive linemen his teammates and opponents had ever seen.

Young doesn’t see that dichotomy as a contradiction. In fact, he loved the chance to get a little crazy while being a measured, mature man in every other area of his rich life.

“Football is a very chaotic, violent, physical sport,” Young said with a smile. “It’s controlled chaos. You don’t get better and you don’t excel in the game by being this passive, nice individual.”

Yet that’s exactly what Young did as one of the most inspirational players and one of the genuinely nice guys of his NFL era.

In addition to his production and resilience at one of the sport’s most brutal positions, Young’s ability to inspire — both through his play and through his response to unimaginable setbacks on and off the field — finally earned him admission to the Pro Football Hall of Fame this summer, nearly 15 years after his last game.

Typically, Young felt a responsibility when he learned he’ll finally get a gold jacket.

“I want to make sure that I do that well and handle it with care,” Young said. “I want do a great job representing all the members of the brotherhood.”

Young was a model of leadership, production and punishing play, but he wasn’t a flashy attention-grabber on the field or a flamboyant personality away from it.

That’s probably why he waited so long for his enshrinement — and why it might not have happened at all if a group of six offensive linemen hadn’t been rallied together by the 49ers’ former PR director last December to film a video testimonial nudging voters to choose Young.

One of the best three-technique defensive tackles of his era, Young had 89 1/2 sacks and earned four Pro Bowl selections in an era rich with talent at the position. He earned an All-Pro nod in 1996, his most exceptional statistical season with 84 tackles, 11 1/2 sacks and two safeties.

Safety Lance Schulters played his first four NFL seasons alongside Young in San Francisco from 1998 to 2001. Schulters acknowledges he was a trash-talking defensive back who absorbed several lessons about professionalism and accountability from the taciturn Young.

“He didn’t speak a lot, but when he spoke, you’d better shut the hell up and pay attention,” Schulters said. “I learned from his toughness and mental fortitude, from his study habits — he would be the first guy in there, last guy to leave. Always on top of his game, taking care of his body. And then in the game, how he controlled and rag-dolled those guards, you couldn’t believe it. He’s an awesome teammate. I love BY.”

The 50-year-old Young seemingly has been a throwback for his whole life.

Young grew up in blue-collar Chicago Heights with two older brothers and a father who worked for the Ford Motor Company. Although he didn’t play football until his freshman year at Bloom High School — initially thinking he would be a fullback — his talent eventually got him to Notre Dame.

He was a three-year starter for Lou Holtz’s Fighting Irish, becoming a team captain, a determined leader — and eventually, the second defensive lineman chosen in the 1994 draft.

Young went seventh overall to the 49ers, who traded up to add young talent to an already outstanding team coming off two straight NFC championship game appearances. Young was the bridge to the future for a defense stocked with veteran talent including Dana Stubblefield, Rickey Jackson, Ken Norton Jr., Tim McDonald, Merton Hanks and Deion Sanders.

San Francisco won it all in his rookie season, with Young starting the Super Bowl victory over San Diego. Although the Niners never got back to the Super Bowl during Young’s career, they remained a consistent winning team until his final seasons.

Young calls it “a huge blessing” to play for just one team: “I know that most people don’t get the opportunity to finish their career where they started, so I don’t take that lightly.”

The biggest challenge of Young’s career arose late in the 1998 season when his left shin was grotesquely broken by Norton’s helmet. Young spent more than two weeks in the hospital and needed extensive surgery just to save his leg from complications.

Schulters was a rookie that season. Like the rest of Young’s teammates, he was amazed by Young’s comeback for the 1999 season opener. Young was the obvious choice as the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year after a dominant 11-sack campaign.

“I was in awe,” Schulters said. “We were all like, ‘Sit down somewhere!’ But no. BY was in there. I didn’t know how you could mentally do it. To have that happen to your body, to just deal with it, and then to come back the next season? That was incredible.”

After retiring in 2007, Young moved to North Carolina with his wife, Kristin, and their six children. He has also coached defensive lines for San Jose State, Notre Dame, Florida and the Atlanta Falcons.

The Youngs also endured the unimaginable pain of losing their son, 15-year-old Colby, to pediatric brain cancer in 2016. Bryant Young handled the tragedy with the same maturity and quiet strength that has been the foundation of his entire life, and he emerged with a determination to continue a lifetime of selflessness and leadership.

“For the young guys, the advice that I would give them is this: Never, never be content,” Young said. “Always find an opportunity to get better and move forward. There’s always work to be done. Don’t get encased in being one way. There’s always opportunities when you remain open and you remain teachable. Keep your eyes focused on what’s ahead, and always be open to improve.”
