Not being a douche gave him some extra spots.

Saints fan here and I was thinking the same thing. Absolutely love Drew but he’s not the second best player in the league

Drew is a very good QB, but this Top 100 list has always been trash. Hell Julian Edelman actually creeped into the top 80 one year. Great player, not one of the top 10 WRs in the league.

I think Mahomes deserved #1 based off of last seasons performance

The way the players are talking in the interviews it sounds like this stuff was recorded during the season.

He’s top 10 for sure, but how can you justify putting him over Mahommes & Brady from last season?

Mahomes sure but why Brady? Brees played better than Brady last year.

And people put way too much stock in these lists. The voting starts well before the season ends, only 1/3 of the players vote, and you know the players aren’t taking it seriously.

Brees is a phenomenal player but he wasn't number 2. Doanld or Mahomes should have been 1 & 2 in either order.

The real question is how did the Saints only have 4 guys on this list? (Brees, AK, Thomas, Cam)

They have the best tackle combo in the league and were arguably the best team in the league last year.

The list is voted on by the players. It's not that big of a deal.

Anybody know where Dak was? Haven’t looked at the list since 91-100.

Read they did the voting in November before Mahomes pulled away from Brees. I ain't mad, it was only Mahomes 1st year so getting #4 is awesome. Dak didn't make the list. I'm surprised they had Antonio Brown above Julio Jones.
