My Top 10 NFL Players Of 2018

NFL Network's Top 100 Players of 2018 concludes tonight with the reveal of the Top 10. The best of the best. We already know the contenders. We'll soon learn the order. It's quite exciting.

The contenders:

Tom Brady
Drew Brees
Aaron Rodgers
Carson Wentz
Le'Veon Bell
Todd Gurley
Antonio Brown
Julio Jones
Von Miller
Aaron Donald

It's always important to remember that this Top 100 Players of the NFL list is voted on by the players. It's the player's list. It's also important to remember that the voting is supposed to be based on how the did last season on how they might do in the coming season. Quarterbacks Carson Wentz and Aaron Rodgers ended the 2017 season on injured reserve. Rodgers missed most of the season. Rodgers' great talent and Wentz's remarkable season were enough to keep them in the player's minds when it came time to vote. Here's how I think that the players voted:

10. Aaron Rodgers
  9. Julio Jones
  8. Von Miller
  7. Carson Wentz
  6. Drew Brees
  5. Todd Gurley
  4. Le'Veon Bell
  3. Aaron Donald
  2. Antonio Brown
  1. Tom Brady
