As the NFL offseason unfolds, many teams generate buzz, but several quiet contenders could surprise fans. Here are five teams that haven't made much noise yet but have the potential to shine when the season starts:

1. Seattle Seahawks

• Odds to win Super Bowl: +1100 (fourth-shortest in NFL)
• Odds to win NFC West: +205 (second-shortest)
• O/U wins: 10.5

Despite losing Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III and key contributors, the Seahawks went 14-3 last year, winning the NFC West and securing the No. 1 seed in the NFC. Their defense, led by Devon Witherspoon and Leonard Williams, remains formidable, while new offensive coordinator Mike Macdonald looks to maintain success despite recent roster changes.

2. Green Bay Packers

• Odds to win Super Bowl: +1800 (tied for ninth-shortest)
• Odds to win NFC North: +225 (second-shortest)
• O/U wins: 9.5

The Packers started strong last season but faltered after injuries. With Jordan Love at quarterback and young receivers like Christian Watson and Jayden Reed, their offense holds promise. Additions on defense, including coordinator Jonathan Gannon, could revitalize their game.

3. Denver Broncos

• Odds to win Super Bowl: +2000 (tied for 13th-shortest)
• Odds to win AFC West: +225 (third-shortest)
• O/U wins: 9.5

After a promising playoff run marred by injury, the Broncos are set to bounce back. With an improved passing attack featuring Jaylen Waddle and a solid offensive line, they aim to return to their winning ways, having clinched 14 wins last season.

4. Jacksonville Jaguars

• Odds to win AFC South: +245 (second-shortest)
• Odds to make playoffs: +110 (17th-shortest)
• O/U wins: 8.5

Despite offseason losses, Trevor Lawrence's development in Year 2 of Liam Coen’s offense could elevate the Jaguars. The team has strong receiving options and a top-10 defense to support their playoff aspirations.

5. New Orleans Saints

• Odds to win NFC South: +270 (second-shortest)
• Odds to make playoffs: +184 (22nd-shortest)
• O/U wins: 7.5

The Saints have made strategic additions, including Travis Etienne, to enhance their offense. With a bolstered offensive line and promising draft picks, their potential to contend in the NFC South remains strong.

These teams may be flying under the radar, but they are well-positioned to make significant impacts in the upcoming season.
