Pete Prisco's annual Top 100 NFL players list stirs conversations as he ranks the 2026 season's best, with a special focus on quarterbacks. This year, 18 quarterbacks made the cut, with Matthew Stafford leading the charge at No. 2 overall.

Among the notable rankings:

• Matthew Stafford (No. 2, No. 1 QB) – The reigning NFL MVP retains his spot, having led the league in passing yards and touchdowns.
• Josh Allen (No. 3, No. 2 QB) – Despite a drop from 2025's No. 4, he remains a force for the Bills, expected to improve with a new offensive strategy.
• Patrick Mahomes (No. 7, No. 4 QB) – Injuries hindered his performance, dropping him from No. 1 in 2025.
• Justin Herbert (No. 10, No. 5 QB) – Injuries affected his last season, but he aims to reclaim his MVP form.

Prisco also highlighted some notable snubs:

• Daniel Jones – Showed promise before an Achilles injury, posting impressive stats before his downfall.
• Jaxson Dart – A rookie standout, he had a remarkable first season, hinting at potential for future rankings.

As the NFL prepares for the upcoming season, discussions around these rankings and the omitted players promise to continue, especially as teams adjust and players recover from injuries.
