1. Patrick Mahomes
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS QB
His numbers were down last season, but he showed in the playoffs that he is the best player in the league -- and on his way to being considered the best ever. If he three-peats this season, is it time to say he's the best ever? (Last season: No. 1)
14 Chris Jones
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS DE
The Chiefs leaned heavily on their defense to win last year's Super Bowl, with Jones being the catalyst of that unit. He can take over games, and can do so from the inside and the outside. He can wreck an offensive line. (Last season: No. 13)
18 Travis Kelce
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS TE
He wasn't quite as good last year as he's been in his career with too many drops, but he still remains one of the best in the league. A bad year for him was catching 93 passes, but his yards per catch fell to 10.6, the lowest of his career. He did amp it up in the postseason with 32 catches in four games. (Last season: No. 6)
30 Trent McDuffie
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS CB
He had his best season in helping the Chiefs defense lead the team to a Super Bowl victory. He played in the slot in the second half of the season and showed off his skills there to do a lot of things, including rush the passer. (Last season: NR)
48 Creed Humphrey
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS C
He remains one of the league's best centers, although his play was off a bit last season. He is good in both the run game and in pass protection, helping form one of the best inside trios in the league. (Last season: No. 40)
86 Joe Thuney
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS OG
As part of the best interior-line group in the league, he excels in pass protection. He did miss time last season and in the playoffs, which is concerning since he turns 32 in November. (Last season: No. 80)
90 Trey Smith
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS OG
He is a mauler in the run game who has improved in pass protection, which is a must in their offense. He helps form one of the best inside trios in the league with Joe Thuney and Creed Humphrey. (Last season: NR)

Hill has never been the best WR. He's a limited WR because of his height. He's totally a weapon but not the best. Kelce is the best and should be ranked as a better player. [Reply]

This is a load of horseshit. Tyreek has been an elite WR since 2017. His size has never been a limitation or weakness whatsoever.
And apparently you’re unfamiliar with guys like Antonio Brown, Steve Smith..? [Reply]
The fact that he has Josh Allen rated where he does and even throws in that he will be an MVP candidate thos year makes me question the list...(among other reasons) [Reply]
