It’s that time of year again. When NFL Network unveils its Top 100 Players list, and there’s plenty of controversy surrounding the rankings of players. The list is voted on by players, but some fans feel it can be more of a popularity contest than anything.
Case in point: Bears receiver Allen Robinson, who landed at No. 93 on the countdown. While Robinson certainly deserved to make the list, there are many fans at have something to say about Robinson being ranked below some other notable names and others continue to praise Robinson for what he’s been able to accomplish despite the offensive deficiencies around him.
Robinson’s teammate Cordarrelle Patterson took to Twitter to make it clear that the Bears need to make signing Robinson to a contract extension a priority, something Bears faithful has been preaching all offseason.
Extend my boy already đđż

Twitter reacted to Robinson landing at No. 93 on the Top 100 Players of 2020 list — behind the likes of Seattle Seahawks receiver D.K. Metcalf and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen — and they’re not happy. And rightfully so.
#Bears WR Allen Robinson:
98 receptions, 1,147 yards, 7 touchdowns, former Pro Bowler and proven veteran, No. 93 on #NFLTop100.
D.K. Metcalf:
58 receptions, 900 yards, 7 touchdowns, only has one season in the NFL, No. 81 on #NFLTop100.

Allen Robinson is 93 overall on the #NFLTop100.
DK Metcalf is 81.
Tell me a more disrespected player in all of football than @AllenRobinson.
There is none.

I adore DK and will always support his growth and success, but 81 already? Over Allen Robinson? Come on now…

Wow. They really put Josh Allen before Allen Robinson. #NFLTop100

DK Metcalf being ranked ahead of Allen Robinson in the #NFLTop100 just validates my decision to never watch that show.

I understand that the top 100 list is made so people can get mad about it, but how is Allen Robinson that low? 93? What?

DK is ranked higher than Allen Robinson. Josh Allen is top 100 and higher than Allen Robinson. pic.twitter.com/2QScGi32e8

Hold on, DK Metcalf is 12 spots higher than Allen Robinson on the NFL Top 100 list? Wut.

CANT BELIEVE that Allen Robinson is only 93 on the Top 100 NFL Players. Anyone who knows me knows I'm the biggest DK Metcalf fan out there, but Allen Robinson is so much better at the moment, yet DK is rated higher. Shame on the players for underrating A Rob. Disappointed

Robinson thrived in one of the NFL’s worst offenses last season, nabbing a career-best 98 receptions for 1,147 yards and seven touchdowns. That with questionable quarterback play, something he’s had to deal with throughout his career.
Allen Robinson may be #93 in the NFLâs top 100 players list, heâs #1 in the hearts of Bears fans.

Robinson remains one of the most disrespected players in the NFL, and this list is another reason why. He might not be the loudest guy, but Robinson lets his play speak for itself. And that should be enough.
