100. SHAQ MASON
RG Patriots | 88 OVR
99. DENZEL WARD
CB Browns | 88 OVR
98. KEANU NEAL
SS Falcons | 88 OVR
97. EMMANUEL SANDERS
WR Broncos | 88 OVR
96. A.J. BOUYE

95. DESMOND TRUFANT
CB Falcons | 88 OVR
94. ALI MARPET
LG Buccaneers | 88 OVR
93. TERRON ARMSTEAD
LT Saints | 88 OVR
Armstead is one of the most athletic linemen in the NFL, and his 5th best Pass Block Finesse (91) is further proof. His unique blend of elite speed (fastest LT) and strength, allow him to win against any type of pass rusher, and do damage in space as a run blocker.
92. JOE MIXON
HB Bengals | 88 OVR
91. JOEY BOSA
LE Chargers | 88 OVR
90. JUJU SMITH-SCHUSTER
WR Steelers | 88 OVR
89. KEVIN BYARD
FS Titans | OVR 89
88. GREG OLSEN
TE Panthers | 89 OVR
87. KYLE FULLER
CB Bears | 89 OVR
His 95 Zone Coverage is the third best in the NFL. Fuller showcases excellent football IQ to play through his receiver, and keep his eyes on the QB at all-times in zone. That, plus his very good speed lets him excel in any Zone defense.
86. DEVONTA FREEMAN
HB Falcons | 89 OVR
85. DEVIN MCCOURTY
FS Patriots | 89 OVR
84. KEVIN ZEITLER
RG Giants | 89 OVR

WR Patriots | 89 OVR
82. BRANDON GRAHAM
RE Eagles | 89 OVR
81. ALEX MACK
C Falcons | 89 OVR
80. LANE JOHNSON
RT Eagles | 89 OVR
The 2nd best RT in the NFL, he has the best Impact Blocking at 91. RT may be weaker than LT, but not because of guys like Lane Johnson. Equally as good run blocking as he is pass blocking, he is able to play in a variety of roles due to his great athleticism.
79. AMARI COOPER
WR Cowboys | 89 OVR
78. CHRIS JONES
DT Chiefs | 89 OVR
77. KEENAN ALLEN
WR Chargers | 89 OVR
76. MATT RYAN
QB Falcons | 89 OVR
75. CASEY HAYWARD JR
CB Chargers | 89 OVR
74. DARIUS SLAY JR
CB Lions | 89 OVR
His 93 Awareness is the 6th best at CB. Slay remains one of the best playmakers in the NFL, as he posted his 5th straight season with 10+ passes defensed. His elite speed, instincts in Zone Coverage (5th best at 93) and ball skills make him one of the NFL’s most dangerous CBs.
73. DEMARCUS LAWRENCE
LE Cowboys | 89 OVR
72. BRANDON BROOKS
RG Eagles | 90 OVR
71. KENNY CLARK
DT Packers | 90 OVR
70. KAREEM HUNT
HB Browns | 90 OVR
69. LAVONTE DAVID
MLB Buccaneers | 90 OVR
68. DEION JONES
MLB Falcons | 90 OVR
67. JOE STALEY
LT 49ers | 90 OVR
66. A.J. GREEN
WR Bengals | 90 OVR
65. GEORGE KITTLE
TE 49ers | 90 OVR
64. JAMAL ADAMS
SS Jets | 90 OVR
His 86 Man Coverage is the best at Safety in the NFL. Very few players can shut down top TEs in coverage, but Adams did just that this past year. Elite coverage, and excellent run defense…the sky is the limit for the now third year Safety.
63. CHRIS HARRIS JR
CB Broncos | 90 OVR
62. ALVIN KAMARA
HB Saints | 90 OVR
61. AARON RODGERS
QB Packers | 90 OVR
60. BYRON JONES
CB Cowboys | 91 OVR
59. EDDIE JACKSON
FS Bears | 91 OVR
58. SAQUON BARKLEY
HB Giants | 91 OVR
57. MYLES GARRETT
RE Browns | 91 OVR
He has the 2nd best Power Move (93) at RE. With nearly 20 sacks before age 23, Garrett is already one of the league’s top pass rushers. His blend of size, speed and strength allow him to setup a variety of pass rush counters.
56. T.Y. HILTON
WR Colts | 91 OVR
55. MIKE EVANS
WR Buccaneers | 91 OVR
54. CAMERON JORDAN
LE Saints | 91 OVR
53. CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY
HB Panthers | 91 OVR
His 81 catching is the best at HB. McCaffrey is such a natural receiver, that he could play Slot WR full-time and put up 100 receptions in a year. His nuanced route running, great hands, and underrated ability as a between-the-tackles runner make him one of the most well rounded HBs in the league.
52. MARSHAL YANDA
RG Ravens | 91 OVR
51. GENO ATKINS
DT Bengals | 91 OVR
50. RUSSELL WILSON
QB Seahawks | 91 OVR

45. MELVIN GORDON III
HB Chargers | 92 OVR
44. PATRICK PETERSON
CB Cardinals | 92 OVR
43. JADEVEON CLOWNEY
ROLB Texans | 92 OVR
42. DAVANTE ADAMS
WR Packers | 92 OVR
His 96 release is 3rd best among WRs. A master in the Red Zone, Adams rapid feet can create instantaneous separation from defenders. Paired with his strong hands, he is the true #1 in the Packers offense.
41. DREW BREES
QB Saints | 92 OVR
40. ANDREW LUCK
QB Colts | 92 OVR
39. CALAIS CAMPBELL
LE Jaguars | 92 OVR
He has the 2nd best tackle (92) and block shed (93) at LE. At 6’8” Campbell is an intimidating presence on the Jags D-Line. Paired with his incredibly agility for his size, and top tier power, he can play anywhere on the line and terrorize the opposition.
38. DAVID DECASTRO
RG Steelers | 93 OVR
37. ZACH ERTZ
TE Eagles | 93 OVR
36. RICHARD SHERMAN
CB 49ers | 93 OVR
His 97 Zone is the best at CB in the NFL. The savviest Corner in football, teams would much rather look the opposite direction than Target the former college WR. His elite instincts and ability to play with his back to the ball let him control his third of the field, week in and week out.
35. MITCHELL SCHWARTZ
RT Chiefs | 93 OVR
34. STEFON DIGGS
WR Vikings | 93 OVR
His 97 Juke is 2nd best for a WR. Diggs is not only a master route technician, but his incredible hands lets him snag passes outside his frame with ease. CBs have a long day ahead of them when they face the Vikings 1-2 punch at WR.
33. RODNEY HUDSON
C Raiders | 93 OVR
32. ANDREW WHITWORTH
LT Rams | 93 OVR
31. TRAVIS FREDERICK
C Cowboys | 94 OVR

27. TYRON SMITH
LT Cowboys | 94 OVR
26. JASON KELCE
C Eagles | 94 OVR
25. EZEKIEL ELLIOTT
HB Cowboys | 94 OVR
His 98 Ball Carrier Vision is 2nd best at HB. One of the last true work-horses in the NFL, Elliott is a 3-down back who is the carrying force for the Cowboys offense. With a powerful stiff arm and phenomenal leaping ability, his vision and burst through the hole make him one of the league’s elite.
24. STEPHON GILMORE
CB Patriots | 94 OVR
23. PHILIP RIVERS
QB Chargers |94 OVR
22. DAMON HARRISON SR.
DT Lions | 95 OVR

15. FLETCHER COX
DT Eagles | 96 OVR
14. ZACK MARTIN
RG Cowboys | 96 OVR
13. TOM BRADY
QB Patriots | 96 OVR
He has the best Mid Accuracy (98) and Awareness (99) in the NFL. Brady remains the league’s most precise passer, and he doesn’t appear to be slowing down. He continues to show the ability to adapt and maximize his surroundings, and it once again resulted in a Super Bowl victory.
12. TODD GURLEY II
HB Rams 97 OVR
11. J.J. WATT
LE Texans | 97 OVR
10. VON MILLER
LOLB Broncos | 97 OVR
9. DAVID BAKHTIARI
LT Packers | 97 OVR
8. PATRICK MAHOMES
QB Chiefs | 97 OVR
His 94 Deep Accuracy & 97 Throw Under Pressure lead all QBs. Mahomes 2018 season was unprecedented. His combination of excellent accuracy, and ability to find open receivers outside of structure led to consistent highlight-reel plays.
7. LUKE KUECHLY
MLB Panthers | 98 OVR
6. JULIO JONES
WR Falcons | 98 OVR
5. ANTONIO BROWN
WR Raiders | 98 OVR
His 98 Catch in Traffic & Spec Catch are 2nd best among all WRs. AB’s combination of elite route running and concentration at the catch point make him one of the league’s most dangerous receiving threats.
4. BOBBY WAGNER
MLB Seahawks | 99 OVR
3. DEANDRE HOPKINS
WR Texans | 99 OVR
2. KHALIL MACK
LOLB Bears | 99 OVR
