DeMarcus Ware is all over the media lately. Serving as the face of the Broncos defense at the first veteran minicamp press conference. Appearing on Family Feud alongside other NFL players. Gracing the June cover of Mile High Sports Magazine. The guy is becoming a regular media mainstay.
And on Tuesday the NFL released some candid video of Ware ranking his top five players for 2015. Perhaps surprisingly, he rated his own quarterback, Peyton Manning, only third among QBs on his list.
Ware was quick to tab Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady as his top player for 2015, with Aaron Rodgers following almost immediately after.
The All-Pro took a few moments before filling out the rest of his list, jumping from No. 2 to No.5 where he slotted Texans defensive end J.J. Watt after some prodding and suggestions from the NFL’s cameraman.
The other name suggested by the unseen camera operator was Peyton Manning, whom Ware dropped into the No. 4 slot.
Ware saved the No. 3 slot for himself, joking that he is going to prove the rest of the NFL wrong for voting him No. 87 in their Top 100 for 2015 list.
The NFL releases players 41-50 on that list on Wednesday night on NFL Network.
