Nice to see him finally getting the league wide respect, but still criminally underrated. His instincts are maybe the best in the league and he plays the game the right way

I'm pretty sure "Nerve Boy" is better.

The Legend of Chuck Norris has nothing on the Legend of Jaylon Smith.

Let me reiterate....CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED.

Brian Orakpo was ranked higher.

The Legend of Chuck Norris has nothing on the Legend of Jaylon Smith.

Jaylon's nerve would've fired immediately if Chuck Norris stared at it.

 

[John813]

Glad to see him on the list. Well deserved.

Sean Lee is a very good, occasionally excellent, player. Criminally underrated? I don't see it. 79 seems reasonable to me. Could he be slightly higher? Yeah, probably. But he could probably also be ranked a bit lower without making me blink. Are you prepared to say he's top 50? Seems to me I could easily identify at least 2 players on every team in the league (several more on some) that are more impactful (better, really) than Lee. That places him out of the top 60 right there.

A generation of big-hit highlights has skewed the general appreciation of linebacker play. Give me this guy who has unbelievable instincts for sniffing out a play, putting himself in position, and making the tackle every time. Nobody I'd rather have in there.

2 players so far in top 100....this is a record for Dallas in the annual biased rankings....

He's not very good, he's great.

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

He's not very good, he's great.

I'm fine letting you choose whatever superlative you like. I think ranking him #79 in the league is fair. Does that make him "great"? Sure.

He should be higher. Clinton Dix isn't a better football player than Sean Lee. Lee is easily a top 50 player.

He's also 1st team All-Pro, which means he's one of 22 players in the world considered the best at what they do

 

[Carson]

Way underrated

 

[erod]

When Sean Lee is physically right, he's as good as anyone.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

The Legend of Chuck Norris has nothing on the Legend of Jaylon Smith.

I believe that Jaylon Smiths nerve will crack the top 100 before the rest of him does.

fired from fear.

Lee and Frederick so far.
I suspect we'll see Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, Dez Bryant, Zeke and Dak before it's all over.
