There are lists you might look forward to making up – Christmas, Honey-Do, Bucket, to name a few – and others, if you're an NFL player, that you just look forward to making, as in being named to them... for whatever that's worth.

Case in point, someone who writes for NFL.com just compiled his thoughts on the best players in the league who are under the age of 25. Why 25? Probably because it represents young players who've begun making a name for themselves while still in their rookie contracts. And while this distinction doesn't come with any take-home hardware or a splashy red-carpet shindig, we bring it to your attention because a pair of Patriots appear on this list, and with good reason.
