Pete Prisco of CBSSportsline.com has come out with his annual list of the Top 50 NFL players, and the Pats have three players on the list, including the number two overall – QB Tom Brady. Here’s the Pats on the list:

2. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: He’s right there with Manning, but missing last season drops him to the second spot. He’s said to be all the way back, which Pats fans have to love.

17. Randy Moss, WR, Patriots: With Tom Brady back, his numbers should skyrocket. He can still run by defensive backs.

43. Vince Wilfork, NT, Patriots: Over the past two seasons, he has developed into a top nose tackle. He is entering a contract year, so look for a big one.
