Tramon Williams in Peter King's top 20

Peter King listed his top 20 players today, and Tramon Williams came in at #16. Good for Peter for acknowledging Tramon's excellence. He also has Aaron Rodgers at #2 (behind only Tom Brady), and Clay Matthews at #11.

The players' top 20 had Rodgers at #11, Charles Woodson at #16, and Matthews at #18. Williams failed to make their top 100. I don't know where King ranked Woodson, but I think his list is more accurate. He ranked the players on their current impact more than their reputations.

I didn't think this should be in the Packers section so...

It was a toss, an internal toss up, lol.

I was surprised to see Tramon Williams being touted as 3rd best CB in the NFL. It's cool, I just don't think it's yet deserved.

Which cornerbacks are better? Revis and Nnamdi get the credit, but Revis had a slow start last season and Nnamdi isn't exactly a playmaker. I'm not saying he is better than those guys, but in terms of the 2010-2011 season I think Williams had a better year. I'm not suprised to see him on King's top 20 because in my opinion Williams had the best year of any cornerback in football last year. The question is can he continue to play at that level?

He also has added value in that he returns punts.

Even tho he is complimenting a Packer, I don't listen to a think Peter Kings says.

Woah, I did not know that! It's especially impressive considering that he only started about half those games. Where did you find that stat?

I think it's pretty awesome that Tramon is getting recognition. Give it one more year and he'll be on the top of the fans and players lists as well. Also, ARod coming in at #2 on King's list is fun to see.

Yeah, I'm thinking the Pro Bowl selections and media accolades are going to start rolling in for a lot of our guys now. I'm almost kind of upset about it, to be honest.
