soonerborn77 276 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/top-25-nfl-players-under-age-of-25-goff-only-qb-to-make-it-two-saints-rank-in-top-five/ We have 3, pretty outstanding if you ask me 23. Chiefs CB Kendall Fuller (23) What made the Redskins' decision to trade for Alex Smith puzzling had nothing to do with their preference for Smith over Kirk Cousins. It had everything to do with their willingness to part ways with Fuller, who went to Kansas City in the deal. Just ask former Redskins GM Scot McCloughan: Scot Mccloughan ✔@MccloughanScot I would have never traded Kendall. He can play inside & outside, he's high character, young & a football player https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/958549939398815744 … 12:54 AM - Jan 31, 2018 Fuller, a third-round pick in 2016, has blossomed into arguably the league's top slot cornerback. Last season, he picked off four passes and defended 10 passes. According to PFF, he graded out as the fifth-best cornerback in football and allowed a 56.7 passer rating in coverage -- only six cornerbacks finished with a lower passer rating. 10. Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (24) Hill is more than just a receiver. He's a dangerous returner (four return touchdowns). He's a lethal ball carrier (41 rushing attempts for 326 yards and three touchdowns). And he's a dang good receiver (136 catches, 1,776 yards, and 13 touchdowns). He's done all of that despite having been an NFL player for only two seasons. Really, Hill's position should read: playmaker. He's a perfect fit for Andy Reid's creative offense, and I can't wait to see him play with flamethrower Patrick Mahomes. 7. Chiefs RB Kareem Hunt (22) Hunt cooled off at the end of his rookie season after a historic start, but when the season was over, Hunt's stat line remained incredible. He rushed for 1,327 yards and eight touchdowns, averaging 4.9 yards per carry. And he caught 53 passes for 455 yards and three touchdowns. Put together, he totaled 1,782 yards and 11 touchdowns. Only Todd Gurley and Le'Veon Bell accumulated more yards from scrimmage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhitter 1,424 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Chris Jones just missed the cut. This is a big year for him as well. I also like the fact no Broncos or Raiders players made the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I'm curious why Hunt is ranked higher than Hill who has proven himself longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I would say because Hunt lead the league in yards and Hill has never come close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 The rushing title is way too big to overlook for any youngster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
