, we had a slew of receivers, one quarterback and a couple of others filling in the gaps. This time? Two signal-callers found their way onto the top-10 list, while receivers continue to dominate the conversation.

Alt has held his own throughout against good competition including Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ T.J. Watt.
