2015-16 NFL Pre-Season All-Division Teams

The 2015-16 Ultimate Sports Blog's NFL Preview continues along with a look at the best players from each respective division. In the NFL, your team's success always starts with what happens in the division during the regular season. During the regular season, it's imperative for a team to beat out the other 3 teams in the division and grab a playoff spot and cruise to the Super Bowl. Beating three other teams out for a playoff spot sounds pretty simple doesn't it? Try telling that to fans of teams like the Oakland Raiders or Jacksonville Jaguars.

Anyway, the following list should give you a good clue on how your team is stacking up against the other teams in your division as we head into the regular season in a few weeks. This is a pre-season list, so I expect the list at the end of the season to look drastically different than this one.....
