NFL Top 100

It is ridiculous that they ranked Russell Wilson and Lamar Jackson ahead of Aaron Donald and Patrick Mahomes.

Mahomes is ranked as the 4th best player and the third best QB

I seriously had to do a double take. It has to be so people like us are talking about it

It is ridiculous that they ranked Russell Wilson and Lamar Jackson ahead of Aaron Donald and Patrick Mahomes.

Personally, I would absolutely put Russell Wilson as one of the 2 or 3 best players (not just QBs in the league). Look at his numbers and look at his resume. No one is more consistent year to year. He’s easily on a first ballot HOF trajectory.

I’m fine with them ranking Jackson ahead of Mahomes. (As a KC resident, the fact that he isn’t #1 is ludicrous!)

Perhaps he’ll get an even larger deal than Mahomes when his contract expires and the Ravens will be in salary cap purgatory for a dozen or so years.

Honestly, QBs are so much more important than a DL that I can't hate them for all being ahead of Donald. But yeah, Mahomes ought to be #1.

 

[TheChair]

I could buy Wilson being ahead of Mahomes. Wilson has had sustained great play over some time now. I would not rank him over Mahomes, but at least I can buy it.

The ranking I cannot buy is Lamar Jackson. One great year, flamed out in the playoffs. Sorry, not enough to put ahead of Mahomes, Aaron Donald and other players that have been great year over year including last year.

mahomes is the best player in the NFL. and it's not close. as noted, qb is the most important position.

if any GM could take any player in the league for one season, or to start a new team, mahomes is the guy that all of them would take. it wouldn't be lamar, russ, or AD.

Wilson gets sacked a lot. His OL isn't great but he throws a lot of deep balls, too. Mahomes has younger legs and moves well so there are fewer plays for a loss. That's really the only difference between the two statistically. Other thing I'll say for Wilson, dude doesn't miss many games and he has been very consistent over the years. I think a lot of GM's would love to go back in time and draft him.

He is an excellent player. No doubt. Mahomes is just on another level.

Jackson isn't the best quarterback let alone top player in the NFL. You can argue Mahomes or Donald and that's it.

It also will go unnoticed, but I have a hard time putting Henry in the top 10 as well.

I agree with this. I'm even fine with Wilson ahead of Donald just because of his position. But Lamar Jackson is the credibility killer, here.

henry averages over 5 yards/carry, which is crazy. and he almost single-handedly got that team to the AFC championship game.

lamar led the league in td passes. only had 6 int's. he also finished 6th in rushing. i have mahomes above him, and i hate the ravens. but he's definitely has a case.

Henry went off the last six games of the regular season and playoffs. However, over the first nine games he ran for 644 yards and averaged under 4.0 YPC. I'd expect more consistency from a top-10 player.

good point but the guy is a freight train. i'd happily take him on my team.
