NFLN Top 100 Players of 2016 starts tonight. Which Chiefs make it?

[pugsnotdrugs19]

100-91 starts at 7pm Arrowhead time. I love this show, every year it's one of my favorites. Really gives a good insight to player opinions around the league. With all that said, who do you see making the list for us this year? Last year, we had Jamaal Charles (12), Justin Houston (27, criminally low after 22 sack season), Jeremy Maclin (61, after signing), and Tamba Hali (70).

I'll predict that this year making the player's list will be....

Charles (he'll make it, trust me)
Maclin
Kelce
Houston
Hali
DJ
Peters
Berry

That's 8 for me, which would likely be tied for the most or 2nd most in the league amongst teams...

Thus far:

Justin Houston:http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-top100...Justin-Houston

Shit, even as a #2 with Derek Carr he had a better season statistically than Cooper in some categories.

Skill set isn't the end-all-be-all in determining starter potential. Bowe, Boldin, Rice, Roddy White, etc are all possession receivers who have been #1s throughout their career.

Argument ends here.

Another Chief to be named soon... Very likely Berry.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

There's Berry, #55.

Only Justin Houston remains for the Chiefs.

The link in the OP is Dez Bryant not Eric Berry.

It must have updated with each announced player.

I'll fix it.

Blake Bortles #56. Insane.

He will be a lot higher next year. Dude is on the short list of QBs thats leading the new generation of franchise QBs once Tom, Drew, Phillip, Eli, Ryan and others retire in the coming years.

The Jags defense is going to be a lot better as will be its receivers.

I think that division will be a dogfight with the Jags and Texans...and the Colts only have Luck, who will get a 6 year 150m deal done soon.

It's a fantasy football league, dude. Bortles put up ridiculous numbers last year (ridiculous for Jax, anyway).

I loved Bortles coming out and I agree with all of that, but that is just way too high. He should be closer to Alex and Carr's range. 18 INT's and some downright terrible games. I think he gets there eventually though.

I'm aware of that, but that's still way higher than I ever thought he'd be.

Due to irresponsible shit-talking, I had to watch six Bortles games this past year.

...I've no ****ing clue what he's going to do. There are periods where he looks excellent and some that are reminiscent of Thigpen.

I think he's already there.

vs Saints 27 for 35 368 yards 4 touchdowns 2 ints
vs Titans 24 for 36 322 yards 5 touchdowns
vs Bucs 23 for 33 303 yards 4 touchdowns 1 int

THOSE ARE ALL GAMES THE JAGS LOST. With that kind of QB performance, their defense was that bad.

If a Chiefs QB has 3 games like that we have a shot at the Super Bowl.

Did you even look at those teams? Saints, Bucs, and Titans?

He also had 5 games with 2+ INT's, and 12 games with at least 1. Not to mention he was under 60% in 9 games and on the season, with two games under 50%. He put up some big #'s against shit competiton throwing to one of the best duos in the NFL, but he was absolutely awful in some games. The Chiefs don't even make the playoffs with Bortles as their QB in 2015.
