Lloyd is ranked higher that B. Marshall and G. Jennings..... who woulda thunk it......???

This Top 100 is super skewed and does not look at the whole career of a player. Lloyed SUCKED for several years. What did he ever do for the Skins....? tsk tsk tsk

Of all the selections made in NFL Network's "The Top 100 Players of 2011" series, none has struck me as more out of whack than Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Lloyd being No. 58.

The issue isn't necessarily with Lloyd being ranked as highly as he was, although I do have somewhat of a problem with that. The real issue is with how the question has been taken.

If the survey, answered by players, holds to the form of the series' title, then Lloyd is worthy of being among the top 100 players of 2011. He led all NFL receivers with 1,448 yards last season, had 11 touchdown catches and averaged 18.8 yards per grab, one of the league's best marks. His 77 catches were by far a career high.

There is no way I would have rated him above Green Bay's Greg Jennings (No. 74) or Miami's Brandon Marshall (No. 61), but based on his 2010 season, Lloyd earned top 100 consideration.

I think he fits well at 58. his stats speak for themselves. no one could guard him this year. if you are the top producing wr in the league the year before you would think he will have another pretty big year in 2011.

The fact that it's called the top 100 of 2011 would lead one to believe that it's the best players from the 2010-2011 season. That was just my take on it. The list is skewed based on any rational criteria I could think of anyway, so I haven't even paid any attention to it.

This is true, what happens at the end of this year? Do they then revise the list?
