Drew Brees was #30 in NFL.com's Top 100 Players of 2014. One year later, Drew stays put at #30 in the Top 100 Players of 2015. Click here for the video of his spot in 2015, and here for 2016.
It's really hard to argue against Drew as one of the top QBs of 2015. Even missing a game due to injury last season, he still finished the season only 130 passing yards short of 5,000 for the season. For the fifth time in his career, Brees led the league in passing yards (even in his age 36 season). He finished with a QB rating over 100 for the fifth time in his career, and finished with the fewest interceptions since the 2009 Super Bowl season.
Make sure you watch the videos above, especially the second where you get to hear Louisiana native Tyrann Mathieu talk about Drew Brees's potent pump fake and Drew's teammate, Defensive End Cam Jordan, praise Drew for his height...
Other players of note on the list: Bengals QB Andy Dalton came in 5 spots behind Drew at #35 and 2-time Super Bowl winner Ben Roethlisberger of the Pittsburgh Steelers came in at #21.
