Top NFL players by jersey number Kyler Murray leads 1-99 ranking for 2020 season

[ymakerpi8d]

The 2020 NFL season is right around the corner, and you don't have to be a whiz to project big things from Super Bowl favorites like the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens. But it take some work to identify the best players at every single jersey number around the league. Fortunately, we did it for you!That's right; we've declared the top players  Bryn Forbes Jersey around the NFL according to their digits, from 1 all the way to 99. But quickly, before you dive in, just a couple of ground rules regarding the rankings:These aren't all-time rankings; they're centered on players in 2020. So, for example, while Jason Witten makes a lot of sense as the best player to wear No. 82 on this list, he's not exactly a Pro Bowl-caliber playmaker these days.When it's a truly close call, positional value matters. So, for example, if it's down to a really good quarterback and a really good kicker at jersey No. 8, well, the obvious choice is to ride with the QB.Not that these rankings mean much for your favorite team's chances this year, but here's how the list stacks up in terms of players represented (keeping in mind that certain positions face steeper competition for bragging rights at their jersey numbers):Baltimore Ravens:9New Orleans Saints:8Seattle Seahawks:7Cleveland Browns:7Kansas City Chiefs:5Buffalo Bills:5Atlanta Falcons:5Dallas Cowboys:5Philadelphia Eagles:4Pittsburgh Steelers:4Green Bay Packers:4San Francisco 49ers:4Indianapolis Colts:4Cincinnati Bengals: 4Denver Broncos: 3Arizona Cardinals:3Los Angeles Rams: 2Houston Texans:2Carolina Panthers:2Chicago Bears:2Los Angeles Chargers:2Detroit Lions:2Las Vegas Raiders:1New York Giants:1Minnesota Vikings:1New England Patriots:1New York Jets:1Miami Dolphins:1Without further ado, we present ... the top 99 players for the NFL's 2020 season, ranked by jersey number:  1 | Kyler MurrayThis might still be "owned" by Cam Newton, but let's not kid ourselves. In 2020, Murray is the better and more exciting QB.2 | 3 | 4 | Deshaun WatsonThere's a real argument to be made for Dak Prescott here, but Watson has still done more with le s.5 | Teddy BridgewaterThis number went to Joe Flacco in 2019. Fan of Teddy or not, good for him to even be on this list in 2020.  6 |No lie: Thomas Morstead got a long, hard look here. Johnny Hekker, too. Still, Mayfield's got plenty of upside.7 | 8 | Lamar Jackson9 | Would it be nuts to contend for Matthew Stafford here? Justin Tucker is also gold. Keep an eye on Joe Burrow in 2021-2022.10 | Tyreek HillDeAndre Hopkins might be more complete, but who's taking him over Hill at his most explosive? Cooper Kupp is 1C here.               MIA  WR  #10  TAR89REC58REC YDs860REC TD7FL0 11 |Carson Wentz needed that playoff win to steal this. Larry Fitzgerald would be the shoo-in for the active/all-time honor.12 | Aaron RodgersThis comes down to which  George Hill Jersey aging QB you prefer on his own merits: Rodgers or Tom Brady. While the latter is easily better positioned for big numbers in 2020, Rodgers seems to have the physical edge. Chris Godwin (who ceded his digits to Tom Brady) and Allen Robinson are solid, too.13 | Michael ThomasThe consistency is just incredible, even if Odell Beckham Jr., Mike Evans, T.Y. Hilton and Keenan Allen offer lots of juice.  14 | 15 | Patrick MahomesOnly Bart Starr stands in his way as a true all-time threat at this number.16 | Tyler Lockett17 | Davante Adams18 | A.J. GreenHe's mi sed 29 games in the last four years, but he's apparently healthy now, and the skill set remains intact. Calvin Ridley could easily overtake him in 2020. Look out for Jalen Reagor and/or Justin Jefferson down the road.19 | Amari CooperMaybe the best WR number out there, considering the alternatives: Adam Thielen, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Deebo Samuel.             CLE  WR  #2  TAR119REC79REC YDs1189REC TD8FL0 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | Jaire AlexanderThe No. 1 corner number: Joe Haden and Marshon Lattimore were the other top candidates.  24 | Nick ChubbIt's hard to keep lock-down corners like Stephon Gilmore, Darius Slay and Marcus Peters sidelined, and any one of them would rep No. 24 well, but take a look at Chubb's numbers again. This guy might be a top-three RB in the NFL.25 | Richard Sherman26 | 27 | Tre'Davious White28 | Joe MixonThe Bengals standout is underrated league-wide, though Josh Jacobs' rookie year suggests he's also in the mix.29 | Earl Thomas30 | Austin EkelerTodd Gurley and James Conner are more complete when Jrue Holiday Jersey  healthy, but Ekeler flat-out produces.               LAC  RB  #30  Att132Yds557TD3FL2 31 | Justin Simmons32 | 33 | Seattle probably overpaid to land him, but he's still a wrecking ball. Derwin James and Dalvin Cook aren't too shabby, either.34 | 35 | Gus Edwards36 | Chuck ClarkAnother Raven! Here comes that Super Bowl run!37 | Quandre Diggs38 | Jeff Heath39 | Minkah Fitzpatrick .40 |41 | 42 | Anthony Sherman43 | 44 | Marlon HumphreyKyle Juszczyk makes some sense here, but Humphrey is a top-level corner on a contender at his best.45 | 46 |The long snapper behind all those beautiful Justin Tucker  Bob Dandridge Jersey field goals.47 | Vince Biegel48 | Isaiah SimmonsBud Dupree broke out as a sack artist in 2019, but Simmons' athleticism is off the charts. Whereas Dupree is generally a good, if unspectacular, edge rusher, Simmons should be the Swi s Army knife that centers Arizona's "D."  49 | 50 | K.J. WrightAge is going to creep up on him soon, but he's still a rock-solid piece of Seattle's defensive foundation.             SEA  OLB  #34  51 | 52 | 53 | It's scary how productive he's been to open his career. No one comes close to repping No. 53 like Leonard.54 | 55 | Chandler JonesThis one's absolutely loaded: , , , Frank Clark and are all part of the conversation.  56 | 57 | Dre GreenlawThis probably would've been C.J. Mosley, had the Jets LB not oped out.58 | Shaquil Barrett may have a similar ceiling right now, but you're still choosing Miller if you want an elite rusher.59 | Whitney Mercilus60 |61 | Graham Glasgow62 | Kelce remains mobile as ever, but you could also make a case for Joe Thuney here.63 | Chris Lindstrom64 | J.C. TretterBonus points for NFLPA leadership!65 | 66 | 67 | Quinton Spain68 | Taylor Decker69 | 70 | Talk about a rock-solid guard group: Trai Turner and Kevin Zeitler also man this spot.               DAL  G  #70  71 | Take your pick of big-time linemen: La'el Collins, Mitchell Schwartz, Jason Peters, Trent Williams.72 |73 | Dion Dawkins74 | Anthony Castonzo75 | 76 | 77 | Tyron SmithTaylor Lewan and Frank Ragnow make just as much sense here as franchise LT and C material, respectively.78 | Jack ConklinAnother top-notch group of OL: Alejandro Villanueva, Laremy Tunsil and Ryan Kelly are all po sibilities.79 | Ronnie Stanley80 | 81 | Mike WilliamsBoth Austin Hooper and Jonnu Smith could work, but Williams finally flashed star WR play-making abilities in 2019.82 | 83 | If you're comfortable betting big  Oscar Robertson Jersey on Darren Waller after his breakout, you might have a case here.84 | Jack DoyleThis isn't about Doyle dominating this number as much as it is the league sorely lacking elite pa s catchers in the 80s.85 | 86 | 87 | Sorry, Gronk. Look, Rob Gronkowski may own the number in terms of popularity, but there's no debate here.88 | CeeDee LambA really solid crop of TEs makes sense here: Mike Gesicki, Evan Engram, Dallas Goedert, Greg Olsen. But Lamb is the kind of explosive wideout who figures to keep Dak Prescott in the MVP conversation.89 | Mark Andrews90 | T.J. Watt91 |Yannick Ngakoue and Arik Armstead give you something different in the trenches, but Cox is still a game-changer when he's on.92 | Marcus Davenport93 |94 | 95 |This was actually a really close call between Garrett and Chris Jones. Take either one, and your D-line becomes a force.96 |97 | Nick BosaJoey just got paid, and Joey's got more of a track record, but you know what? Nick wasted absolutely zero time showing the NFL he's just as dominant off the edge.98 | D.J. Reader99 | Aaron DonaldDanielle Hunter deserves way, way more credit here than he gets. It wouldn't be outlandish to put him over Donald. This one's got good prospects for the future, too, in Chase Young and Javon Kinlaw. Click here Click here Click here
