Top 99 Player Rankings...

I read an interesting article on Foxsports.com about a contributor's opinion on the Top 99 player rankings for '09. Rather than list the full 99 people he picks , I am only going to list the Top 20.

1. Peyton Manning, QB, Indianapolis Colts
2. Tom Brady, QB, New England Patriots
3. Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers
4. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Arizona Cardinals
5. Adrian Peterson, RB, Minnesota Vikings
6. DeMarcus Ware, DE/LB, Dallas Cowboys
7. Drew Brees, QB, New Orleans Saints
8. Jared Allen, DE, Minnesota Vikings
9. Julius Peppers, DE, Carolina Panthers
10. Ed Reed, S, Baltimore Ravens
11. James Harrison, LB, Pittsburgh Steelers
12. Nnamdi Asomugha, CB, Oakland Raiders
13. Andre Johnson, WR, Houston Texans
14. Albert Haynesworth, DT, Washington Redskins
15. Troy Polamalu, S, Pittsburgh Steelers
16. Philip Rivers, QB, San Diego Chargers
17. Eli Manning, QB, New York Giants
18. Steve Smith, WR, Carolina Panthers
19. Shawne Merriman, LB, San Diego Chargers
20. Jon Beason, LB, Carolina Panthers

He said he asked the following questions to come up with this list.

1. Which player would I rather have on my team?


2. Which player would make the most impact on my team?


3. Which player will be the best in 2009, specifically?

So who would you pick for your top 20?
