Broncos receiver Demaryius Thomas was , up 29 spots from his ranking last year.
Thomas caught 111 receptions for a career-best 1,1619 yards — second in the NFL behind only Antonio Brown — with 11 touchdowns. He also set a Broncos record with 10 games of 100-plus yards receiving and was named to his third Pro Bowl.
The Broncos used their franchise tag on Thomas this offseason, guaranteeing him $12.82 million for one year.
But Thomas is holding out for more.
He sat out the offseason workout program and could miss training camp if a long-term deal isn’t agreed upon by the NFL’s July 15 deadline.
Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant, who also received his team’s franchise tag and has also held out of workouts as they negotiate a long-term deal, was ranked No. 15 on the top 100 list.
Thomas joins fellow Broncos (No. 95), (87) and (33) on this year’s NFL Top 100 list.
