If wide receivers are suddenly super valuable, then the guys who cover them (AKA cornerbacks) must also be really important right? In that case, let’s look at the top 10 CBs for 2022. All of these players are outside corners because they’re typically more coveted than slot corners (though a couple of these guys can…
For our last non-QB offensive position group, we’re going to look at the guys who get overlooked more than anyone else: guards and centers. The top 10 interior offensive linemen that you see below typically get rewarded in Pro Bowl nods, All Pro selections, and holiday gifts from their QBs; their annual salaries and especially…
Switching back over to the offensive side of the ball, we now come to a highly important but little-discussed position: the top 10 offensive tackles in the NFL for 2020. Despite what the recent WR contracts may have you think, many teams view OT as the second-most important position on their rosters (after QB of…
Sticking near the line of scrimmage for another week, it’s time to check out the top 10 DTs in preparation for the 2022 season. These players can often be underrated, particularly when their premier skill is run stuffing. Those DTs are traditional nose tackles; they are critical on 1st and 2nd down, but often leave…
Next up in our position examinations: linebackers! In particular, we’re talking about inside linebackers who lined up in a traditional linebacker spot. OLBs that played primarily on the edge as pass rushers were covered in last week’s article. In spite of the emphasis placed on outside LBs, MLBs are still highly valuable, with the largest…
Rather than go with another offensive position group this week, I’m going to give the defense some love. Specifically, we’re going to examine the top 10 edge rushers in advance of the 2022 season. Defensive ends don’t need to be appreciated by me; their teams know their value, as evidenced by DEs/OLBs possessing the highest…
This time, we’re looking at the top 10 TEs for 2022. I am really glad I didn’t write this article before Gronk announced his retirement. Tight ends have diversified in recent years, with some that are pure blockers like an extra lineman or fullback, some that are pure receivers and look almost like large WRs,…
A couple of weeks ago, we looked at the top 10 RBs ahead of the upcoming NFL season. This time around, we’re going to examine the top 10 WRs heading into the 2022 season. After all, they’ve been obliterating the market in their free agency deals and extensions the past few months. This is an…
I know. This isn’t the type of fun topic you were likely hoping to see me write about this week. Unfortunately, new developments have necessitated that we talk about Deshaun Watson the man again, not the football player. In this article, we’ll briefly review what has happened to this point, and then we’ll discuss the…
Quarterbacks get all the love (see this page for some talk about them), but teams that run the ball well tend to have sustained success, particularly in the playoffs and in games played in cold weather. With that in mind, I thought it would be nice to compile a list of the top 10 RBs…
