J.J. Watt is best NFL player; Aaron Rodgers is MVP

The top two picks of NFL Network’s Top 100 Players of 2015 came down to J.J. Watt and Aaron Rodgers, two players with ties to the state of Wisconsin and a choice that made all followers of the Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin Badgers rise with pride.

Unfortunately for Rodgers, he finished second this time to Watt after outlasting him for the biggest prize – AP NFL MVP.
