All hail Tom Brady, king of the 'Top 100 Players' list for the third time.

This year's 'NFL Top 100 Players' list was about more than just the quarterback at the top, though.

Five rookies made the cut, including Alvin Kamara (20), Kareem Hunt (33), Deshaun Watson (50), Leonard Fournette (58), and Marshon Lattimore (82). And over one-third of the list were first-time nominees -- that includes Carson Wentz and 36 other fresh faces.

It's cool to see the respect the league has for Brady. It's just as cool to see the other 99 players react as they make their way up the charts.

Here are some of the best tweets, posts, and comments from this year's 'NFL Top 100 Players of 2018' reveal:

I just don’t understand the top 100. Weddle & Suggs been going to pro bowl after pro bowl.. how do they not make it? Should Especially be in front of people who didn’t even play half the year? 🤔 I’m just saying if you’re going to do the list do it right.
