Splash’s Top 100 (2022): Players 60-51
It’s time to identify the top 100 players in the NFL, this time Nos. 60 through 51.

It’s time to identify the top 100 players in the NFL, this time Nos. 60 through 51.

To wrap up this 2022 NFL free agent positional rankings, we will preview the group of defensive backs set to be available.

It is not much of a stretch to say that the 2022 New England Patriots will feel different than the 2021 team. Offensive Coordinator Josh McDaniels has officially left for the Las Vegas Raiders.

Although the New England Patriots had a respectable 10-7 year, their season ended in anything but respectable fashion. Blown out by the Buffalo Bills and quite frankly dominated in every facet.

After a 2-4 start to the 2021 season, the New England Patriots have become one of the NFL’s hottest teams in short order. After a tough overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys, they have since won four straight, outscoring opponents 3:1 in that span.

It’s time to identify the 100 best players in football, beginning with Nos. 100 through 91. The series started with 21 players who will be in the 2022 version of this list.

The 2020 season offered some strong play from the defensive backs. As we continue our trip around the gridiron, here are the top 10 defensive backs for the past season.

While the New England Patriots struggled to finish with a 7-9 record, they got to watch Tom Brady win his seventh Super Bowl title with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, the Patriots could return to the playoffs next season with an aggressive offseason.

2020 was a tough season for the New England Patriots. In their first season post-Tom Brady, the Cam Newton-led squad finished 7-9 and missed the playoffs. While the Patriots’ special teams and defense struggled, their offense proved to be a liability, forcing costly turnovers and ultimately losing several games.

In an AFC East matchup with significant playoff implications, the Miami Dolphins (9-5) defeated the New England Patriots (6-8) to solidify a divisional transition of power. The loss leaves the Patriots with multiple questions as their early offseason approaches, while the Dolphins remain firmly in the playoff hunt.

The last time these teams met, Lamar Jackson delivered Tom Brady and the Patriots their first loss of the 2019 season in Week 9. This year, New England’s roster is a little bit different, and so are the expectations for this game. Historically, the Ravens and Patriots have been AFC powerhouses. They’ve combined for eight Super Bowls since 2000, but only one of these teams has legitimate aspirations to hoist the Lombardi trophy this season.

Every year the NFL Network does its top 100 countdown based on the previous season. However, that’s the past, and we want to look forward to the future. Four of our writers have put together a 14 part series, predicting our top 10 at each position. We’ve also included the most under and overrated at each position.
