With the busiest portion of free agency and the draft behind us, NFL rosters are starting to take shape. Now, there are still some notable free agents available (Andy Dalton, Cam Newton and Jadeveon Clowney to name a few), but a lot of the big offseason questions have been answered.

We still don't how all of these new faces in new places will mesh with their respective teams, but several teams have gotten makeovers since the last set of my Wildly Important Power Rankings. New power rankings are definitely warranted here, folks.

So, without further ado, it's time for the post-draft and free agency edition of Wildly Important NFL Power Rankings. The next set of rankings will be come out following the preseason and actual football games played – whenever that may be. Enjoy.
