They've yet to name the top 25, but so far, there have been no Packers on the list. I'm guessing that Rodgers and Matthews will make the top 25, but are we really that deprived of talent on our team? If so, it shows that the Packers have good coaching, good schemes, and are able to play together as a team. That's not such a bad thing, but I'd still like to have a few more blue chippers on the team.

6 Bears on the list so far. Best evidence I've seen yet that pinpoints the dominance they've enjoyed over Green Bay over the past few years.
100 Dumbest Lists Ever.... that's a list I'd like to see.
Other than Cobb and Sitton, what other Packers belong in top 100? Depth is what makes this team so good. Make a list of the top 200 players and you might see 15 Packers on the list.
Jordy Nelson.
I think a pretty good case can be built for James Jones.
Sam Shields.
Until this past season, Tramon could be on that list.
Jordy if he can stay healthy.
Jones and Shields, you gotta be kidding me.
I thought I read somewhere that AR was 6th on the list. I don't know about Matthews.
Considering that there are 1696 players on NFL rosters, and that about 1440 of them suit up on Sundays when all the teams are playing, It can be dufficult to get down to 100 of them. Still, this list is the opinion of the players, and most of them would likely make terrible GMs. Not that the sports writers (or any other group) is better. I tend to look at these lists and move on. The thing that is important is what happens with your TEAM (the Packers in my case) when the games count.
This is different than the countdown NFL Network did. I believe it's just the opinion of the PFT staff, so kindness toward cancer patients likely factors in fairly heavily.

They had John Kuhn at #92 last year. That pretty much says it all.
Florio is a Vikings fan and he's made no secret of that. I don't know why anyone listen's to his or his idiotic staff's opinions. When they're giving opinions they're about as useful as Bleacher Report. They need to stick to reporting the news.

The ultimate insult.
Bleacher Report.

Why not Jones? He caught everything thrown at him, made some unbelievable catches, scored more than any WR in the league last year. And he blocks.
Not sure why anyone would mention Shields but I would mention Hayward. He was certainly one of the 100 best players last year. Might have to add Burnett too.
