Demario Davis & Ramczyk are underrated.

Armstead should at least be in the 80's or 90's. His injury history has to be factored in, but he should be on the list.

Jimmy Garoppolo being ranked 43 made this list a piece of shite

decent list, ramczyk is too low, but think the others are close. Thomas deserves top 10

Ram should be higher for sure. And to be honest I know Brees isn’t quite at the same level he used to be but I think he makes Thomas more than Thomas makes him so I could see them switched.

Its voted on by the players! i would think no list would be more accurate than this. Jimmy G did lead his team to the Super Bowl in his first full year! And yes i know he had a good defense but he made some big plays when needed. Ask the Saints! Almost 4000 yds and 27 touchdowns is pretty good for a heavy run offense.

People keep saying this but what makes anyone think these players take this list seriously? It’s a popularity contest like every list. That’s why OL get no love on these lists while like 20 QBs (like garbage Josh Allen) make the list. QBs are well known while OL aren’t. They ask 1/3 of the players to rank their top 10 players.

Plus players watch only particular tape. A WR isn’t going to watch tape focusing on an OL. These guys mainly watch tape of players they’re trying to emulate or players they’re going to play against. Not of all 32 teams in the league.

Well that comes from the players! they would rather be selected by their peers than the media. Same thing in media, a guy who covers one particular team is going to believe the team he covers should have more guys!

Doesn’t make the lists anymore legit or accurate. If anything the analysts probably know more about the NFL players as a whole then some WR does about all OL or a CB does all RBs.

Which other OT’s are ahead of Ram

I figure he would be top 5 in the league.

Thomas comes in at #5. Mahomes not being #1 is crazy, and russel wilson being in the top 2 is crazier

Players know more about the game than any of us ever will but that doesn't always mean they always evaluate talent well. Michael Jordan is the goat, yet he can't run the Hornets worth a shite.

Kind of surprised MT was that high. It's not that I do not believe he earned it, I just didn't think they would have a WR that high.

Ram at 82 is a joke. He would constantly shut down elite pass rushers 1-on-1. The only reason I can think they don't have him higher is because he's RT & not LT.

At quick glance, these are the O-linemen on the board. Ram is the 7th highest rated Olineman. #5 OT, #1 RT

29. Nelson - OG Colts (L)
55. Martin - OG Cowboys (R)
62. Bakhtiari - OT GB (L)
66. Tunsil - OT Hou (L)
74. Stanley - OT Balt (L)
78. Smith - OT Dal (L)
82. Ram - OT NOLA (R)
94. Kelce - C Philly
98. Brooks - OG Philly (R)

dunno how we managed to get Demario, but GD that was as home run a signing as we have ever made.
