Pete Prisco puts Michael Thomas above Drew Brees in Top 100 list

The New Orleans Saints head into the 2019 season with one of the NFL’s most-loaded rosters, featuring high-level talent on both offense and defense. They received recognition for that from CBS Sports senior writer Pete Prisco, who included six Saints players on his list of the top 100 players of 2019.

New Orleans ties the Kansas City Chiefs with the third-most players on the list (six), trailing only the Dallas Cowboys (seven) and Los Angeles Chargers (eight). The top spot belongs to reigning Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald, who is one of five Los Angeles Rams on Pricos’s ranking.
