Peter King's top 500 NFL Players
 

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200....html?bcnn=yes

Some interesting picks in the top 100.

Sorry if repost, I couldn't find it.

Coming soon: "The NFL's Top 1696 Players"

LJ not even in top 30, yet he's the 2nd best RB in the NFL.

Tamba Hali in front of Jared Allen

A rookie in Paul Poslunszy who's never played a down in the NFL is ranked higher than Donnie Edwards, someone who's led the Chargers defense in tackles multiple times.

Page, Pollard, Huard, Bennett, and Colquitt are all ranked higher than Ty Law

Once again King proves to be the biggest dumb**** in the national football media.

What an arbitrary and stupid list

Stephen Jackson and Reggie Bush above LJ. I stopped reading when I saw that.

13 Chiefs

Ty Law barely made it.

With good cleats that guy is top 100.

Coming from someone who can't make the list of Top 10000 national sportswriters....who cares. :shrug:

Yeah, he's the CE Wendler of writers.

Can somebody post a list of the Chiefs, and where they're at?

This crap matters. We read it. Sports fans everywhere read it.

Not everyone is as "smart" (maybe I should say "savvy") as the people here, and they are going to grow up and work for EA Sports and give the Chiefs crap ratings on Madden '15.

Where's Trent Green? I'm at work and they block Sports Illustrated.

34 Larry Johnson RB Chiefs Has 752 carries in two years; how much is left
43 Tony Gonzalez TE Chiefs After 10 years: 721 catches, two games missed
73 Brian Waters G Chiefs Lone Ranger after Roaf, Shields retirements
112 Tamba Hali DE Chiefs Will play any of four spots in front seven
147 Derrick Johnson LB Chiefs Will excel with Donnie Edwards's tutelage
203 Jared Allen DE Chiefs Off-field difficulties derailing career
224 Donnie Edwards LB Chiefs Most underrated 'backer of this generation
270 Jarrad Page FS Chiefs He's Pro Bowl -- bound ... and soon
305 Napoleon Harris LB Chiefs
320 Bernard Pollard SS Chiefs

415 Michael Bennett RB Chiefs
420 Patrick Surtain CB Chiefs
426 Eddie Kennison WR Chiefs
430 Damon Huard QB Chiefs
463 Ty Law CB Chiefs
493 Brodie Croyle QB Chiefs

Oh, man. The numerical possibilities are endless.

Brodie Croyle is 30 spots below Ty Law.

Brilliant!

Brodie Croyle #493.

Ted Ginn is above Kennison. A rookie who was drafted cause he is a good kick returner beats out our best WR.
Good list

His reasoning for dropping Jared Allen is ridiculous. Allen got his suspension reduced and has been a model citizen so far. Of course, he could slip up, but its not really a lingering problem the way he makes it out to be.

but he has always been a huge Chiefs fan. :p

I was expecting the first 53 players to be Patriots. I'm a little surprised.

King jumped off the Patriots bandwagon again. Now he is back to sucking Manning's balls.

That doesn't even make any sense.

NTTAWWT.

24 Chargers. Wow.

I hope they're right about page

wheres scanlon

So Quentin Jammer is higher rated then Law. ROFL

Here is his convoluted method for ranking the players. Im still like WTF??

"So I thought I might make a list, the best of the best. The criteria: importance of the position (I had quarterback, left tackle, pass rusher and cornerback at the top, but with room for the explosive player), talent level and age -- with a nod to young players on the cusp of a breakout season (I rank opportunistic Jets safety Kerry Rhodes 29th) and to team-oriented guys (selfless Javon Walker 80, selfish Terrell Owens 103). Though part-time players, four impact return men (in order, Hester, Jones-Drew, Pacman, Wes Welker) were placed among the top 126. The best special teams player last year (outside of return men and kickers), Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard, landed at 320. Keeping in mind what Bill Parcells said in his most recent incarnation as an NFL coach -- "It's incredible what a field-position game this has become" -- I made room on the list for six kickers and six punters."

Ha, just saw this list.

By my count there are 6 other teams' BACKUP QB's rated ahead of Huard, which sounds about right to me.

That's the key...dude looked like he was on bad roller skates last year.
