NFL 2015: Finding the best player from all 32 teams
With all of the moves that head coach Chip Kelly made this offseason, it is hard to keep track of who remains on the Eagles. However, the best player suiting up for Philadelphia last year and this remains the same guy; Jason Peters. Peters has been nothing but a prototypical left tackle over his 11-year career with the Buffalo Bills and Eagles.
Last year, PFF ranked Peters as the top tackle in football. Both he and Joe Thomas are certainly in the conversation, with Peters making his way by mauling the opponent. Peters is a road grader of the highest order, something that free-agent signing DeMarco Murray will surely appreciate.

Although the Redskins are a lackluster franchise in every conceivable way at the moment, they still have some quality players to pick from. Ryan Kerrigan is at the top of the list, providing almost all the pass rush for a team that has issues hitting the quarterback. Last year, Kerrigan totaled a career-high 13.5 sacks while Washington had 36 as a team.
The Indiana native plays with a relentless motor, helping him to earn Pro Bowl honors in 2012 and be named by his fellow players to the Top 100 Players of 2015 list, coming in at No. 78. Kerrigan is only 26 years old, so his prime years are starting now.
