NFL top 100 debuts June 30, which Indianapolis Colts players could make rankings?

USA Todaya day ago

The 2025 NFL top 100 rankings will debut on June 30th. How many Indianapolis Colts players could make the list?
The NFL is set to unveil its list of the top 100 players for the 2025 NFL season, as voted on by the players, beginning on June 30th.
So, how many Indianapolis Colts players could appear on the rankings this year?
The unveiling of this list will go from June 30th through August 29th, with two new players being revealed each weekday as the countdown goes from No. 100 down to No. 1.
The player reveals will take place on X at 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM ET on weekdays and feature a three to five-minute video about each member on the list.
Which Indianapolis Colts players could make the NFL's top 100 list in 2025?
Last season, linebacker Zaire Franklin was the only member of the Colts to make this list. He came in at No. 100.
Franklin should again be in consideration with him coming off a second-team All-Pro season in 2024, which included him leading the NFL in tackles.
Along with Franklin, defensive tackle DeForest Buckner is a prime candidate for this list, as is left guard Quenton Nelson. By PFF's metrics, Buckner was one of the more disruptive defensive tackles in the game last season, while Nelson made another Pro Bowl and was a second-team All-Pro.
Following a bounce-back season by Jonathan Taylor, who finished fourth in rushing yards in the NFL, he could certainly have received some votes for these rankings as well.
Lastly, I'll also mention Cam Bynum, who has had very good ball production over the last two seasons and has filled a variety of roles in the Minnesota secondary. Charvarius Ward, meanwhile, is one year removed from an All-Pro season in 2023, while Bernhard Raimann continues to improve and, by PFF's metrics, was one of the better tackles in 2024.
Now, with all that said, while these players may be the best candidates on this Colts team, not all will make it. I would say that Franklin, Buckner, and Nelson are the most likely to land on this list.

Browns' Jerry Jeudy Trying to Stay Flexible Amid QB Troubles

Browns' Jerry Jeudy Trying to Stay Flexible Amid QB Troubles originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns are the team in the NFL that has the most quarterbacks on their roster with five. Even though Deshaun Watson is injured, there will still be four guys competing for the starting spot in 2025. Advertisement And that is not exactly an easy thing for a wide receiver to deal with. In a recent interview with ESPN, Browns Pro Bowl wideout Jerry Jeudy talked a bit about what it's like dealing with a QB situation like this. And he did not leave anything out, as he said how he truly feels. "It is pretty difficult because you want to always build that relationship with a quarterback and have that consistency throughout the years," Jeudy said. "But as a receiver going through that, you just got to keep working and you got to learn how to adjust no matter what. Some situations ain't going to go as planned, so you just got to figure out how to just keep going and stay on the right path." The importance of a good connection between a quarterback and a receiver cannot be understated. But having to get build that kind of connection with four guys cannot be an easy task. Advertisement But despite some less-than-stellar quarterback play from the Browns this past season, Jeudy was still able to be one of the better receivers in the NFL. He finished with 1,229 yards, which placed him sixth in the league, as well as four touchdowns. Jeudy will be looking to follow up his Pro Bowl season with another good year in 2025, no matter who it is throwing him the ball.

Browns Urged To Make Major QB Decision

Browns Urged To Make Major QB Decision originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns are not the only team in the NFL with some considerable quarterback questions heading into next season. However, theirs has pretty clearly become the most convoluted. Advertisement Cleveland added four new quarterbacks through the offseason after learning Deshaun Watson had considerable setbacks in his recovery from an Achilles injury. Now, it's veterans Joe Flacco and Kenny Picket along with rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders making up the quarterback totem pole. Many are wondering how this competition will work out through training camp and the remainder of the offseason. Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio has come out strong against the idea of the Browns keeping all four, suspecting the team has attempted to build leverage here. 'I think that's lucdacris. Having four quarterbacks on your roster?' Florio said. 'I think they're trying to build some trade leverage." Florio believes that one of Flacco or Pickett must be gone before the start of the season in order to help Sanders and Gabriel progress in their development. Advertisement 'Between Flacco and Pickett, one of them has to go. They have to go,' Florio said. 'Because I don't want the presence of both of them to undermine my effort to see what I have in Gabriel and Sanders. They don't have enough reps to go around to get everyone ready.' It's hard to imagine one of these four not being squeezed out by the time the final 53-man roster decisions are made. But if the goal is to build leverage off the veteran assets, how exactly would the Browns trade one of them? Flacco is an aged quarterback with little demand elsewhere and the market for Pickett will not turn any heads either. Simultaneously, nothing says the Browns should be married to the pair of rookies either. Losing Gabriel or Sanders would be a noticeable swing and miss but both were late Day 2 and Day 3 picks. Certainly not ideal, but the Browns could do worse in using these assets. Advertisement And if the hopes to be competitive next season do not work out in their favor, there's a a better class of quarterback prospects waiting in next year's draft. The Browns have some freedom to explore what they have this season and by no means should be forced to spoon feed opportunities to the rookies if they are not deserving. There's no need to force a move just for the sake of doing so.
