I don't necessarily agree with his list so here is my list.(Feel free to post yours)
5.) Andy Dalton- He is our mediocre QB and deserved to be in the middle of this top 10.
4.)Geno Atkins- He WAS our best player without him this defense is not on the same level as it is without him.
3.) AJ Green- He is a great player but Jeremy Hill at the back half of the season had the passion as well as the stats.
6.)Carlos Dunlap- led the team in sacks the past two seasons and is beast as a run defender.
1.) Andrew Whitworth- Best LT in the game, leader of the team, cornerstone of the entire offense.
8.)Michael Johnson- We missed his presence last season. Great run defender, good pass rusher, and he will bat his share fair of passes down.
9.)Tyler Eifert- He is the only TE on the roster that has played in an NFL game.
2.)Jermy Hill- He is a beast and Gio helps keep this amazing talent fresh through the beginning of the season.
10.) Marvin Jones- He is another deep threat that offenses have to watch and a top redone threat. 9 out of his 10 touchdowns were in the redzone in 2013.
7.) George Iloka- Brain of the secondary. He has a rare combination of length and covering ability for a safety.
Honorable mention Vontaz Burfict- He is a playmaker in the middle of the defense and he would be better off with him. He has elite playmaking ability and before his injuries last season he looked like a potential DPOY candidate. I would have ranked him higher but LBs are like RBs and seem easier to replace.
