Zach Ertz, Carson Wentz, Jason Kelce Named in NFL Network's Top 100 List
It’s that time of the year.
Time to rank NFL players ahead of the new season.
The NFL Network is doing their annual top-100 list, but the cool thing is that the players themselves are polled for these rankings, no media or fans or anything like that.
They’re revealing 10 guys at a time, and right now they’ve reached the top 40, where Zach Ertz is ranked.
The following Eagles are on the list, which contains a complementary video clip for each player, after the jump:
40. Zach Ertz
72. Jason Kelce
96. Carson Wentz
Does that seem low for Wentz? For what it’s worth, Carson was ranked third on the 2018 list, so that’s a drop of 93 spots for him after the back injury cut short his season. Cam Newton is ranked in the 80s and Kirk Cousins is #78, which seems a bit wonky to me, but what do I know?
I assume when the top 30 players are revealed this week that Fletcher Cox will be the highest-rated Eagle, though they did have him at #69 last year, which is insanely low. Malcolm Jenkins and Lane Johnson landed in the 90s on the 2018 list.
