Every offseason for the last many years, we have learned who the top 100 players of the NFL are, based on player votes. The “NFL Top 100 Players of 2026” revealed the top five players this week, so we know the full list.
It was stacked with players in the NFC West, arguably the best division in the NFL. Three NFC players were in the top fiven and five were in the top 10.
In all, 17 players in the division made the top 100.
Here is the breakdown by team:
Arizona Cardinals
They had three make the list:
- No. 13 TE Trey McBride
- No. 75 S Budda Baker
- No. 78 LB Josh Sweat
Los Angeles Rams
Six Rams players made the top 100. Three are in the top 10.
- No. 1 EDGE Myles Garrett
- No. 4 QB Matthew Stafford
- No. 7 WR Puka Nacua
- No. 53 WR Davante Adams
- No. 84 EDGE Byron Young
- No. 89 RB Kyren Williams
San Francisco 49ers
Five Niners made the top 100.
- No. 6 RB Christian McCaffrey
- No. 40 OT Trent Williams
- No. 46 TE George Kittle
- No. 54 LB Fred Warner
- No. 85 QB Brock Purdy
Their offense was great last season, and it carried them to a 12-win season. It is no wonder four players on the list are from their offense.
Seattle Seahawks
The defending Super Bowl champions had only three, the same as the Cardinals.
- No. 5 WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba
- No. 21 QB Sam Darnold
- No. 97 LB Ernest Jones
DL Leonard Williams is a bit of a snub.
