Josh Allen ranked No. 3 as Bills place 3 on CBS Sports' NFL Top 100

CBS Sports’ NFL Top 100 rankings ahead of the 2026 season placed Josh Allen at No. 3, with the Buffalo Bills also claiming two other spots. The outlet ranked Allen as the league’s second-highest quarterback behind reigning MVP Matthew Stafford. Running back James Cook posted one of the biggest jumps, moving to No. 34 after being omitted a year earlier, following an All-Pro season in which he led the NFL with 1,621 rushing yards. Cook’s form included 28 rushing touchdowns over the past two seasons and Pro Bowl selections in each of the previous three years. Left tackle Dion Dawkins rounded out Buffalo’s trio at No. 78 after earning his fifth consecutive Pro Bowl selection in 2025. CBS’ Pete Prisco ranked Cook as the NFL’s fifth-best running back and described Dawkins as “the glue” of a strong offensive line.
