#3 – Terry McLaurin, Washington Commanders
Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin was very unlucky to miss out on the Top 100 list. McLaurin excelled again in 2021 in a below-par Commanders offense. He racked up 1,053 yards and five touchdowns throughout the season.
His quarterbacks last year included Kyle Allen and Taylor Heinicke. You could easily argue that with a competent passer, McLaurin would be on the list. He will hope to be here in 2023, as Washington acquired quarterback Carson Wentz during the 2022 offseason.

#4 – A.J. Terrell, Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell was elite in the 2021 season, but was somehow left off the Top 100 list. In a poor Falcons team, Terrell shone, putting up ridiculous stats. He allowed 43.9% of passes thrown into his coverage to be caught, leading to a passer rating of just 47.5.
Despite ranking as PFF’s second-overall cornerback in 2021, Terrell missed the NFL’s Top 100 altogether. He was behind corners such as Kenny Moore, Marshon Lattimore and Darius Slay.
#5 – D.K Metcalf, Seattle Seahawks
Despite the Seattle Seahawks having a poor 2021 season, wide receiver D.K. Metcalf was still amongst the best in the game. He had 967 receiving yards, as well as a career-high 12 receiving touchdowns.
This was a 336 yard deficit from the 2021 season and that seems to have hurt Metcalf’s stock. He will be hoping for an upturn in fortunes in 2022, but with Geno Smith at quarterback instead of Russell Wilson, don’t hold your breath.
