7 Jason Kelce, center, Philadelphia Eagles

You can argue all you want about the next statement. You won’t change our staff’s mind about this. Jason Kelce deserves a bust in the Pro Football Hall of Fame when his playing days are over.

For a six-foot-three and 295-pound NFL offensive linemen, it didn’t surprise anyone when words like ‘undersized’ were thrown around. No one says that now though.

Four Pro Bowl nods, three First-team All-Pro nods (he may have four of those at season’s end), and a Vince Lombardi Trophy later, Kelce is one of the best players to ever play the center position in the NFL. He’s also the author of the greatest speech in the history of victory parades, not bad for a former sixth-round draft choice.

8. Jason Peters, tackle/guard, Philadelphia Eagles

Sometimes, things don’t end as you think they should. Some legends ride off into the sunset like a conquering hero. Others become old guys that make us wonder when they’re leaving. Unfortunately, Jason Peters has become the latter.

Every time he asks for money, people ask if he’s clueless about how much he’s regressed. He’s always been spoiled by this Eagles franchise, but now, words like ‘selfish’ and ‘diva’ are being thrown around more often.

When ‘The Bodyguard’ finally leaves us in 2021 (we hope), he’ll be remembered as one of the best Eagles players in franchise history, and one day, he’ll be welcomed back with open arms and a standing ovation. He just has to leave first, and for most fans of this great franchise, the belief is he should have been shown the door officially a long time ago.
