Zach Thomas left off TSN's top 100 NFL players list

Nick is God said:
The Sporting News just released their top 100 NFL players of 2005 and only one Dolphin made it - Jason Taylor #17 - meaning Zach Thomas in the eyes of this magazine is not worthy of being in the top 100 of today's players.

Here are some notables who were put ahead of him:

100 - Dre' Bly, CB, Lions
96 - Mark Bulger, QB, Rams
95 - Ty Law, CB, Jets (one of five Jets on the list)
94 - Donovin Darius, S, Jaguars
90 - Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila, DE, Packers
89 - Shawn Springs, S, Redskins
86 - Brian Westbrook, RB, Eagles
84 - Al Wilson, LB, Broncos (where in the hell was he this past Sunday? :shakeno: )
83 - Rudi Johnson, RB, Bengals
81 - Charles Grant, LB, Saints
80 - Leonard Little, LB, Rams
73 - Charles Tillman, CB, Bears
66 - Michael Lewis, S, Eagles
64 - Cornelius Griffin, DT, Redskins
63 - Jonathan Vilma, LB, Jets
62 - Shaun Ellis, DE, Jets
50 - Patrick Surtain, CB, Chiefs

And I'm not trying to suggest that Thomas is better than all these players, but it's hard to believe that he doesn't deserved to be at least ranked with them.

I guess heart, leadership and hard work doesn't count for nothing with it comes to the Sporting News.

hahahaha,

Cornelius Griffin number 64??? oh man,
Or Shawn Springs at 89 (I didnt know he was playing Saftey this year)
how about Tillman at 73.

What a joke.

Thomas is arguably the second best MLB in the NFL. I wouldn't put much thought into this article at all.

You guys really care about these dumb-*** writers on their team & player rankings.

It's just one persons opinion......who cares?!?!?

Exactly!

Then again what are forums without opinions?

Zach Thomas should be on that list. The man always brings it and has motor like the H2.
 
Can u show the top 10 on the list and maybe what number Jason Taylor is?

NEVER heard of Micheal Lewis he led the Eagles in tackles last year and was a starter in the pro bowl do you watch football?

Thomas should be top 100 but Micheal Lewis earned position
 
who cares.

im pretty sure zach doesn't care where he is ranked and his ranking wont affect his on field performance or the record of the dolphins.

who cares what rankings say and what analysts say.

WHO CARES.

the only thing that matters is saban and his 53 person roster.

I was gonna say the same thing. The least known guy on that list is Cornelius Griffin of the Redskins. He doesn't deserve a sniff of the top 200.
 
Well, Vilma on the list when zach isn't should show you exactly what they were thinking.

defensive ROY last year....huge potential....the guy is gonna dominate
 
As we all know Zach made his career on being second guessed and the underdog! So as DD28 and deathstar said Zack could care less. I have to agree whole hearted!!!

IDK, Vilma is very very good. I'd prefer him over Zach.
