Example.. Ray Lewis is a HOF player.. a great player when he was in his prime.. that prime has long past.. he still is productive, but there is no way he belong on the list let alone the top 5. Just the truth.. he isn't the impact player on the field he once was.. not even close.

So wouldn't that make it simply frivolous?

I mean.. if you want to exclude two entire teams from the voting.. well that seems pathetic.

EDIT: Annnnnd come to find out it was ProBowlers that voted. Honestly to me it doesn't matter WHAT cross-section of the NFL player base gets to 'vote'. I agree with a previous poster in that it is better than what the talking heads could put up.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

For fun

1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Tom Brady
3. Haloti Ngata
4. Peyton Manning
5. Darrelle Revis
6. DeMarcus Ware
7. Patrick Willis
8. Drew Brees
9. Ndamukong Suh
10. Joe Thomas

Plus, I'll define my list. These are my top 10 players as of right now. I could care less what somebody did in 2004 when the year is 2011.

That said.. Porky reasoned that Ryan didn't belong because he needs more time to prove himself (my interpretation that needs a bigger body of work) then it seems ironic that Suh gets that nod upon one year. Have to believe that Porky believes Ryan needs to develop more, in which I may challenge a some.. but Ryan is close to that top 10. Personally.. I think Ryan was better over the course of the year than Brees.. heck I think Rivers was maybe better than either of them.

Now Joe Thomas..with the level in which he plays the left tackle spot.. there is little doubt that he belongs on a top 10 list.

Personally.. having 4 QB's ranked in the top 10 is the outrageous part.. IMO.

I haven't seen Gates crack a top 10 for instance and I asume that has something to do with the position he plays. Elite TEs don't get the raw production elite WRs get, but an 1150 yard season last year and 780 in 10 games this (1250) is just amazing.

I'm glad you left Ryan off. I'd put Rivers in front of him. Maybe even Big Ben.

Andre Johnson might crack that list over Suh and Thomas, but really, they're awfully close. Thomas gets way too little recognition for his play. Especially since the right side of that line has been so awful for so long.
