Overview
- Tuesday’s Mike Sando poll for The Athletic, which averaged roughly 50 NFL coaches and executives, ranked Jordan Love at No. 10 and showed he moved up three spots from last year.
- The voting placed Love firmly in Tier 2 with 37 Tier 2 votes, two Tier 1 votes and 11 Tier 3 votes, signaling growing league respect without broad consensus that he is elite.
- Coaches praised Love’s arm talent, mobility and on-field intelligence while repeatedly warning about inconsistent decision-making, occasional puzzling throws, and room to improve pocket manipulation.
- Green Bay staffers and local reporting say the Packers are addressing those concerns in training camp with focused work on Love’s mechanics, timing and time-to-throw to try to turn perception into wins.
- Love’s rise in peer rankings builds on his 2025 season — 3,381 passing yards, 23 touchdowns and a playoff berth — but analysts note that postseason performance and cleaner in-game choices will determine whether he reaches a true Tier 1 level.
