NFL Top 100 players list under fire - SunsetBengal - 06-06-2017
JJ Watt tweeted that the list was a joke, after being rated the #35 player on the list. Watt only played 3 games last year. Adrian Peterson made the list, despite only averaging 1.9 ypc, and also only playing in 3 games.

It's been under fire since it debuted in 2011. Plenty of players have said that they don't fill out the list, some have said they have been given the chance to vote. Peyton Manning came in at #50, or something like that, in 2012 when he missed the whole season. One year they said that about 300 players were the total voters. That's basically 6 teams out of 32 that voted.
