71. Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers<\/p>\n

70. Green Bay Packers S Xavier McKinney<\/p>\n

69. Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson<\/p>\n

68. Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton<\/p>\n

67. Miami Dolphins LB Jordyn Brooks<\/p>\n

Sutton caught 74 passes for 1,017 yards and seven touchdowns while appearing in all 17 games during the regular season. His impact was a little more muted during the playoffs, though he did score Denver’s lone touchdown in the AFC title game.<\/p>\n

But earning a second Pro Bowl nod and the Broncos’ team success was enough for Sutton to get some serious praise from his peers.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old justified the $92 million<\/a> extension he signed last summer.<\/p>\n

Sutton is unlikely to be his team’s leading receiver in 2026, but that may not speak to his individual effectiveness. Denver made a massive addition to the receiving corps by acquiring Jaylen Waddle.<\/p>\n

Waddle figures to have a feature role, one bigger than he had while sharing an offense with Tyreek Hill on the Dolphins.<\/p>\n

If opposing secondaries are occupied with Waddle, that will give Sutton a little more space on the edge. The Dolphins had two 1,000-yard receivers in 2022 and 2023, and that’s something Denver could replicate given how much it appears to be emphasizing the passing game.<\/p>\n

Brooks was an All-Pro after leading the NFL in tackles (183), a total that tied for the 10th-most ever in a single season. He added 3.5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a> focused Tuesday on linebackers as part of his annual positional rankings. Brooks came in at seventh after being unranked ahead of the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

“Brooks has a skill set similar to Demario Davis when he was young \u2014 really strong, fast, physical, can play in space, very good tackler,” one rival coordinator said.<\/p>\n

The Dolphins are in a full-scale rebuild after cleaning house and hiring a new head coach and general manager. They’re also banking on Malik Willis to be their quarterback of the future.<\/p>\n

Miami probably could’ve traded Brooks this offseason and gotten some valuable draft capital back. The fact he’s still around leads you to believe he’s part of the franchise’s long-term plans, and that will mean eventually giving him a big raise on the $8.8 million average salary he’s earning.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old certainly merits it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton made the NFL Top 100 for the first time on the heels…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":799969,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[559],"tags":[64,63,593,85],"class_list":["post-799968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/799968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=799968"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/799968\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/799969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=799968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=799968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=799968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
