Today marks the release of the latest installment in the most popular sports video game series in history, “Madden NFL 16.” The series has developed a system in which it rates players by number which is usually criticized for its lack of sense. It makes the football fan think about how good we think these players are. It makes us think about who we think the best players are.
The best players in a single professional sport is one of the most commonly debated issues amongst the fans. The NFL is unique. One thing almost every fan will have to agree on is that the quarterback position will dominate the list. It is clearly the most prominent position in the league and even the casual fan can tell how important a great one can be towards winning a Super Bowl.
It’s boring to make this list with quarterbacks. We all know who will be there - Rodgers, Brady, Manning, and Luck. Depending on personal preference you could put even more there.
The list that is interesting is top 10 defensive players. Only a few of them really get our attention. Let’s take a look at some of these guys.
