It may come as no surprise, but the Los Angeles Rams made news again on Wednesday after having two players ranked in the Top 5 of NFL Network's Top 100 Players list. 

Todd Gurley was the highest-rated running back on the list at No. 5, and Aaron Donald was the highest-rated overall player, coming in at No. 1. In total, the Rams had six players on the list.

Gurley has held the top spot among NFL running backs for a couple of seasons now, but his off-season knee concerns could put his top spot at risk over the next year. If he is unable to maintain his massive share of the workload, his No. 1 positional ranking could easily be usurped. 

As for Donald, it comes as no surprise that he was voted as the best player in the league by players. Though he wasn't ranked in the Top 5 a year ago, Donald has been considered the most dominant player in the league for a couple of years now. 

If the Rams can stay healthy, they will stay winning. They have the talent to succeed, and the rest of the league thinks so as well.
