Where will Landry be on the top 100 players this year?

    Ok, we've gotten a few Phins listed in last evenings show where they gave out 60-80. Ajayi made #69 and Wake made #62. Landry was #98 last year and had it in his locker as motivation all year as he's right that there aren't 97 players better than him in the league.

    Based on last years performance, we all know he'll make the list. The question is will he crack the top 50 or not?

    So far here are the only receivers listed:
    #61 TY Hilton
    #71 Edelman
    #88 Doug Baldwin

    I'm saying he shows up in the 40s.

    I think Suh will show up somewhere too.

    Ajayi 69 and Jarvis within top 60 (name has not been called). My guess is he is somewhere in the 50's and he is gonna be very angry about that lol

    7th in catches is good, 10th in yds is good, but I think the same thing that hurt him last year will hurt him this year as well, tied for 48th in TDs, there's only 32 starting WRs in the league, and if you add the slot as a starter there are 48.

    Landry may not be on it at all this year, while Edelman gets a "benefit of the doubt" vote, and last year Landry was the driving force of the O, this year Jayjay took center stage, and there are a ton of WRs that will be going on the list, I think he may have gotten snubbed.

    I'm looking at it like, what did he do to get moved up 40 spots? He has 12 fewer catches and 20 fewer yds from last year, same TDs only his ypc went up from 10 to 12 and does that move him up 40 spots?

    I'm surprised he didn't make it, if he didn't, but I can't imagine he moved up 40 spots.

    Yeah once we are in the 40s, the possibility he got snubbed starts becoming a possibility. But not a certainty. Is he better than TY Hilton?

    But then again, this is voting by the players, so not based on merit, and so maybe he's really liked by his peers.

    Cameron Wake is tops in his position, certainly higher than Landry is at his. I think Landry is in the Baldwin area of WR rankings (Baldwin higher due to TDs) and he's already ranked. So it'll be interesting to see.

    I need landry to stay humbled and be in the 50's. he takes that personal and is fuel for the fire. any WR or DB he plays against that is higher than him, he will look to show up

    Then you hope he wasn't even ranked.

    Look at what that did to Baldwin when Michael Irvin called the Seattle WR "aite."

    Baldwin's been on a tear since.

    Perhaps a lot of guys in the league think Parker will be playing a bigger role...

    Not sure about that, but I did see him on a big window display at CHAMPS sporting-goods store in Santa Monica. Woulda snapped a pic and posted it but I was walking with a business-coaching client. lol

    You may be right, although I find Landry does get a lot of love from the media. I find he gets mentioned alongside Odell a lot because they played together at LSU. But this one is done by players so it's hard to say what will happen.

    They just put up Dez Bryant last night so it looks like Landry will get left off the list. He's not better than Dez I mean c'mon. Look out for ticked off Landry going bananas this year. Probably better for the team!

    I think it's pretty safe to say he didn't make it at this point, but I guess we shouldn't be surprised, he had slightly less yds and rec, and the same TDs and he was 98 last year.

    He's got to get in the EZ more to be thought of the way he wants.

    Agreed. He's not going to be on this list. There won't be another Dolphin on it this year I would say. Next year hopefully a bunch have played so well that there are multiple Phins in the top50.

    Perhaps Reshad is still on the list, the list is supposed to be based on this up coming years production/impact, so he absolutely should be on the list, but an injury can hurt you because you're not on anyones mind, so we'll see.

    Supposed to be but it's totally about who balled out last year. So I doubt Reshad's going to make an appearance.

    You're most likely right, but he is our only guy that still has a chance, and imo is the best player we have, and is a top 5 S.

    I agree but they;ve had players already that put up much more yds and tds so I'm losing hope. I can't think of anyone that would put Landry over Dez....

    Sorry bro.

    It's amazing because I missed the games Jones was an astonishingly top player. Like I must have drank too much or aliens took me. I'm not saying he's not but he hasn't stood out to me enough to make that claim.

    NFL Network just ran a commercial for next weeks Top 100 players. They mentioned a player climbed more than 40 spots from last year. Landry was shown in the commercial.

    So what are they showing next week? 31-40? I absolutely hate the format that they're releasing this- it seems like we're waiting decades in the slowest part of the season.

    There's only so much new content this time of year they have to stretch it out. Next, they'll release team schedules alphabetically. A-C Team Schedules in episode one D-F in episode two...

    It's purely a popularity contest so it's very possible he's in the top 50. That's good for him. If he's featured in the commercial he's definitely ranked I'm sure.

    I mean, it's really hard to say he's better than Dez, or even TY or Amari, or better at his position than Suh is at his. But it's a popularity contest again. Merit is not the primary factor here.

    If you consider his position "slot receiver", then he is one of, if not the best.

    I give the players a bit more credit than say the probowl, in which I agree with you, but I think the players are at least trying to be accurate.

    Sure but that doesn't mean you rank above the best WR. Do you think he's better than Hilton? Hilton who does 750/750 (ish) yards, slot vs out wide.

    This is a pretty good article on stats on slots (also #1 wrs, #2 wrs)

    It is not only stats, it is his contributions. Punt and kick returns, a third-down-go-to-wr, a leader , who is always blocking down field. Look at Ajayi's big runs. Go look at the highlights on who the last man blocking was. He has his flaws with penalties and some drops. But he makes big plays. He is an energizer bunny for the team. All that should be considered. He had more recepts than any WR in his first two years. He is a safety blanket
