Overall, this class blends blue-chip defensive playmakers, a deep perimeter talent pool and a more meaningful cluster of quarterbacks worthy of early consideration than last cycle.

Drake Maye threw a fourth-quarter touchdown to Hunter Henry and New England’s defense battered Justin Herbert, sacking him six times in a 16-3 Patriots win over the Chargers in an AFC wild-card game. Andy Borregales kicked three field goals as the Patriots advanced to the divisional round, holding Los Angeles to 207 yards while Herbert fell to 0-3 in the postseason.

The San Francisco 49ers beat the Philadelphia Eagles 23-19 in their wild-card matchup, but lost star tight end George Kittle for the remainder of the playoffs. Christian McCaffrey totaled 114 yards with two receiving touchdowns, while Brock Purdy threw for 262 yards and two scores.

Josh Allen led his first career game-winning drive in the postseason, finishing it himself on back-to-back tush pushes to punch in the winning score with just over a minute remaining. The dramatic finish capped a game with four lead changes on four straight possessions and showcased Buffalo’s toughness as Allen absorbed heavy hits all day before carrying the Bills home.

Parker Washington profiles as a strong play for Jacksonville, given his recent surge in target share and production and a Bills coverage unit that looks far more vulnerable to receivers than surface stats suggest. On the San Francisco side, fading George Kittle makes sense against an Eagles defense that has consistently shut down tight ends, especially with Kittle still operating close to the line of scrimmage and limited coming off an ankle injury.

The Rams survived a back-and-forth wild-card battle by answering Carolina’s go-ahead score with Matthew Stafford’s late touchdown pass toColby Parkinson, the decisive play in a narrow victory. Los Angeles leaned on clutch execution from Stafford and its playmakers in the fourth quarter, while the Panthers’ late surge ultimately fell just short.

Caleb Williams threw a go-ahead 25-yard touchdown to DJ Moore with 1:43 left as the Bears erased an 18-point deficit to beat the Packers 31-27 in a wild-card thriller. Chicago outscored Green Bay 25-6 in the fourth quarter, then sealed its first playoff win in 15 years when Jaquan Brisker deflected Jordan Love’s desperation heave on the final play.

Tetairoa McMillan profiles as a strong target-volume play for Carolina, as game script should push the Panthers toward a pass-heavy approach and McMillan has consistently drawn looks when Bryce Young is under pressure, making Over 4.5 receptions (+110) appealing. Meanwhile, Jordan Love is well-positioned to clear Over 215.5 passing yards (-120), facing a Bears defense that struggles to generate pressure and has allowed frequent downfield production when coverage breaks down.

Our SGP picks are built around data-driven narratives — how a matchup is likely to unfold, which players are best positioned to benefit and where the edges lie.

Jordan Love has thrived when defenses make coverage mistakes, and his matchup benefits from a defense that struggles to sustain perfect coverage. Meanwhile, C.J. Stroud has consistently punished man coverage, a strength that aligns well against a Steelers defense leaning heavily on those looks.
