The 2026 NFL Top 100 list showcases the very best in the NFL today. No matter the position, there are elite talent who have excelled over the competition. While there are some growing stars, some veterans manage to stay on the list for their consistent excellence. Let’s take a closer look at one Buffalo Bills player who found their way on the 2026 NFL Top 100 list.
Dion Dawkins falls 15 spots on the 2026 NFL Top 100 list
The Buffalo Bills have a talented offense, and that begins with the offensive line. Five-time Pro Bowl left tackle Dion Dawkins made the list, despite dropping 15 spots to the 57th-ranked player on the 2026 NFL Top 100 list. NFL’s Jeremy Bergman wrote a blurb for Dawkins being named to the list once again, which is below:
“Dawkins has parlayed a fifth straight Pro Bowl campaign into his third consecutive appearance on this ranking. Protecting Josh Allen‘s blind side with ease will do that for you. The 32-year-old left tackle boasts a big body and an ever bigger personality, making him a favorite of analysts and podcast hosts alike. He also endeared himself to an entire position group when he helped develop the Protector Award, which is now given out at NFL Honors to the league’s top offensive lineman. That alone is worth this peer recognition.”
According to Pro Football Focus, Dawkins allowed six sacks and 33 quarterback pressures across 957 offensive snaps (15 games) last season. Keeping quarterback Josh Allen protected is first and foremost, as he is going up against some of the best pass-rushers in the league. He also opens up the ability for running back James Cook to bounce to the outside for big-yardage runs. However, the run-blocking grade he had last season (66.0) was 44th of 89 eligible offensive tackles. If he can improve blocking for the run, it will be a huge step up for the 32-year-old offensive tackle and the Bills as a whole.
Below are the names on the 2026 NFL Top 100 who have been revealed so far this week.
・60: Las Vegas Raiders TE Brock Bowers
・59: Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix
・58: Houston Texans WR Nico Collins
・57: Buffalo Bills OT Dion Dawkins
The 2026 NFL Top 100 list is created by the players during the previous season. Each weekday, two names are revealed on X at 10 and 11 am ET, and will continue to do so until we reach the top 10 remaining. At that point, only one name will be announced each weekday until the entire list is revealed on Friday, Sept. 4. It will be intriguing to see how many other offensive linemen are on the 2026 NFL Top 100 list this year.
