Top 101 Players From Pro Football Focus

Salute: Pro Football Focus

Here’s a quick reminder of the basic criteria:

This list is based solely on 2016 play. Nothing that happened in previous years or may happen in the future is accounted for. This isn’t about class or talent, it’s about performance throughout the 2016 NFL season.

This list is created with an “all positions are created equal” mantra. So, you won’t see 32 quarterbacks heading the list — even though that is the game’s most valuable position. Instead, we take a look at how guys played relative to what is expected from their position.
