No. 45. Ryan Ramczyk, right tackle

No. 36. Alvin Kamara, running back

No. 16. Cameron Jordan, defensive end

No. 12. Michael Thomas, wide receiver

No. 5. Drew Brees, quarterback

[I]Brees should've graded, been higher...

Lattimore's slow start cost him...

And players that miss more than four games shouldn't be considered...

Do the math. There are 32 NFL teams. So, just based upon simple ratios each team would expect to have 1.56 players in the top fifty. The Saints have 5, or 3.2 X the simple ratio.

Let's not ignore Terron Armstead played in 10 games for 2018 and was borderline elite in all of those games.

Yea well 10 games is the reason he’s not on the list. Elite players can’t help much when they are on the bench half the season. I would rather have someone above average who can stay healthy all season. Especially on the offensive line where personnel consistency is so important.

Armstead is worth the hassle despite his injuries. TA may play hurt but he's still an ELITE LT when he does.

Doesn't take a scientist to realize that is a key reason why Sean Payton/Loomis still has him on payroll in New Orleans.

Whew.....I didn't think Drew would make the list.

The Ram paying big dividends!

I'd sure like to see Mr. Marcus bounce back from that sophomore slump, such that it was...
