Four former Wisconsin football players are listed in Pro Football Focus’ top 101 players in the NFL list

Pro Football Focus has released its list of the 101 best players in the NFL right now, and not only did the Wisconsin football team land four players on the list, those four made it in the top 30.

As Pro Football Focus explained, the list is intended to not only look at the past season, but look at the players as they stand in the grand scheme of things.

Here’s how PFF denotes the list’s nature:

“This list…will become a new feature at PFF intended to look beyond that narrow band of play, and instead start to quantify who the best players are in the league right now from all of the available data.”

According to PFF, four of the best 30 players in the NFL right now are Wisconsin football products.

They include offensive linemen Travis Frederick and Joe Thomas, quarterback Russell Wilson and defensive lineman J.J. Watt, four players who were all Pro Bowl selections last season.

Thomas has been considered the best left tackle in the game for some time, and Frederick is an up-and-coming center.

Wilson put together one of the best five-game stretches in NFL history last year, and is considered a top-five quarterback by many.

Watt remains perhaps the most feared player in the entire league.

Here’s a look at each player and where PFF ranked them in the top 101 players in the NFL.
