Really enjoyed this series last year.

Figured I start a thread to discuss/debate the players on the list as they're revealed.

It kickoffs tonight with #'s 100 -91and the show will air subsequently on Wednesdays.


My expectations:

- Eli Manning will be at worst in the Top 20, after being left off the list all together last year
- Cam Newton, AJ Green, JJ Watt, and Tim Tebow will make the list
- Aaron Rodgers will be #1 overall.
- Peyton Manning will make the list despite not playing a single down last season.

I know he had a subpar season but that's a hell of a drop from #13 last year.
 
peyton will be on the list ... but in the 90s ... he's that good

eli should be in the top 10

ed reed should not be on the list

rodgers and brees should be 1 and 2

i expect numbers 49ers players to be on the list ...

AP was having a down year

Megatron should be top 5

that is all for now
 
Kuhn is on this? HAHAHAHA

Tebow has no business on here but obviously he'd be on this list. Expected them to put him in the top 40
 
I love Donald Penn, but he probably had the worst season of his career last year...along with many other players on the Bucs. He should have been on the list last year instead of Davin Joseph or Mike Williams if anything. I'm interested to see where Carl Nicks, Joseph and Vincent Jackson are on this list. If John damn Kuhn is on this list along with Finnegan, D'Qwell Jackson, Romo and Willis McGahee then V-Jax better be on there.
