Post draft Power Rankings 1-10- Yeah I broke the golden rule. Bite Me.

Here are some early NFL power rankings. Yes, it's May, and yes, these rankings will probably change in, say, August.

1. New England Patriots Forget the defending champs rule, I respect Pittsburgh and personally am a big Steelers fan, but with Brady back and Joey Galloway added to the roster, this is a no-brainer.

2. Pittsburgh Steelers It's no mistake that they won the Super Bowl. The Steelers are pretty solid from top to bottom. All-around QB? Check. Great players to throw to? Check. Running game? Check. Defense? Check, check, and check.

3. San Diego Chargers Rivers had a great season last year. L.T. ought to improve this year, as should the defense. The special teams are solid, too.

4. Atlanta Falcons Matt Ryan will only get better. These guys are in for a great year, not to mention a likely NFC South title.

5. Baltimore Ravens Yes, four of the top five teams are in the AFC. Is that really that big of a surprise?

6. Arizona Cardinals Who cares if Kurt Warner's 39? Anyone could throw to Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald.

7. Tennessee Titans The defense may decline a bit, what with the absences of Albert Haynesworth and defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, but other than that, the Titans are fine.

8. Minnesota Vikings Best running game, one of the best defenses. This rank may change depending on Brett Favre's decision.

9. Washington Redskins Stop laughing. These guys look a lot better right now. They seem to have finally put the puzzle together.

10. New York Giants How will overrated Eli Manning do without star receiver Plaxico Burress?

Be patient, I will release rankings 11-20 and so on soon.
