Ah, yes, Player Rankings! Always entertaining! Occasionally informative!

Rarely productive! Always worthwhile for their true purpose, which is to stir up discussion and debate. 

This is Bill Barnwell's top 100 NFL players for 2015, and within it you'll find embedded the NFL players' own list, as well as Barnwell's assessment of said list (most of which I agree with).

(Strictly speaking, the above link is the layout for the exercise, as well as players #100-61... here is the link for the second part of the article, posted on Friday, including his list of players #60-1.)

I'll be honest here, it's hard to argue with the top six of his list, for the reasons he lists (and implies)....and at the risk of violating "SPOILER ALERT" agreements, the nicest thing to me about the first three - Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay), Andrew Luck (Indianapolis), JJ Watt (Houston) - is that they are three of the most genuine, nicest men you would ever meet in any line of work, let alone professional football.

DO YOU AGREE WITH EITHER HIM OR THE NFLPA? (What are the odds? Infinitesimal, I'd think!) Comment with the most egregious errors...
