1. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: He continues to stretch the bounds of possibility at age 40. Brady has mastered every nuance of his offense, and he continues to dominate the league almost two decades after winning his first Super Bowl.
2. Aaron Rodgers, QB, Packers: He’s the best pure passer in the NFL, with accuracy that is off the charts. Still in his peak at age 33, and no reason to think he can’t go another six or seven years or more.
3. Von Miller, LB, Broncos: Miller is the best pass rusher this side of Lawrence Taylor, and was the driving force in Denver’s Super Bowl win two years ago.
