NFL's Top 100

I loved watching NFLs Top 100 last year. It was fun to watch each episode. So this season I decided I would take a crack at predicting who and where players might land.

This was quite a process. I started around 2:00 p.m. today. My goal was to make a list that would look like similar to the one from last year. Well 30 new players found their way on to my list.

Of course when you put a list together, it will be debated. Debate away. There are quite a few notables left of the list. I had about 10 man bubble.

A few breakdowns... after the jump

Tough list. Peyton Manning sharing a spot with Ray Lewis. I was really confused whether the players will have him on the list or not. To me it is 50 50. If he is on the list. He will be top 5 because the players know that he is still top 5 when healthy. But if the players leave him off then I wouldn't be surprised. The logistics. If he makes it than everyone drops a spot and Jordy Nelson is 101.

Two QB's not on the list but could be, Tony Romo and Tim Tebow.

All this was for fun and was way too time consuming.

Oh yeah by the way...

3 Lions!

56. Ndamukong Suh

50. Matt Stafford

5. Calvin Johnson

What are your thoughts on our guys? Where do think these Lions land? Does Avril make it (he was a bubble boy)?

*** Edited. Total emission on my part, I am going to add Lesean McCoy at 37. Dropping everyone down a spot. Jordy Nelson dropping to 101.
