Here are some of the Top NFL Super Athletes and reasons why… The NFL is filled with the best athlete’s in the world, so we did our best to choose the best of the best. Enjoy.

1.) Devin Hester - For many obvious reasons this Superstar Kick Returner is the best in the business. Hester isn’t the fastest man in the league, but Hester’s acceleration, vision, and cutting ability is what sets him apart from the rest of the league. Hester holds the record for Most touchdown returns in a season(6), Most Touchdown Kick and Punt returns in a season(6), Most touchdown returns as a rookie(6), Most touchdown returns in one game (2). Hester also held the Longest Play in NFL History that he shared with Nathan Vasher until Antonio Cromartie took it. Hester was recently rewarded with a fresh contract for $30 million with $15 million guaranteed. In Hester’s contract, he has incentives for $10 million roster bonus if he reaches the level of a #1 receiver.

2.) Reggie Bush -Reggie Bush became a phenom at USC with his own personal highlight real in each game. Reggie Bush recorded 100 catches in a season as a running back in New Orleans. Bush has a Barry Sanders-Like stopping ability that allows him to change directions effortlessly. Reports have Bush recording a 4.33 40 time.

3.) Antonio Cromartie – Cromartie is a record holder with the Longest Play in NFL History of 109 yards. This is the only record in the NFL that can, and never will be broken. Cromartie recorded a franchise-record 10 interceptions in 2007. Cromartie has a combination of size and speed that allows him to jump, cover, tackle, and dominate other players.

4.) Joshua Cribbs - The undrafted return man in Cleveland has made a name for himself on the opposing team’s scouting report. Cribbs has made it his job making people miss on punt/kick returns in 2007. Cribbs has the ability to make one cut and the next thing you know the opposing team is chasing behind him.

5.) Vince Young – Vince is 6′5 233. Unbelievably big, unbelievably fast, and unbelivably strong… Young has deceivingly fast speed due to his long stride. He is another open field runner that has the ability to just straight out run past you.

6.) Randy Moss – Randy Moss is a freak of an athlete… Reports are that Moss recorded a 4.25 40 Yard Dash, and rumors of a 4.13 40 in High School. Moss has an unbelievable jumping ability that allows him to “Moss” his defenders by jumping over them and pulling the ball out of the air. Highlights of Moss will prove to you that he is a top NFL athlete. Randy Moss holds records of most TD receptions as a rookie(17), and single season TD record(23).

7.) Michael Vick - Well this one would be easy… He isn’t exactly an NFL player at the moment, BUT I thought he deserves some recognition for his athleticism.Vick’s skills on the field come from him being a deadly threat in the open field. He has the shifty ability to avoid a crowd of tacklers, and the acceleration to burst through tight openings. Vick became the first ever quarterback to rush for 1,000 yards in a season, Vick also set the record for most Yards per Carry(8.4), Vick has a number of more records for 2 rushing tandem’s of QB and RB. He is a different breed of quarterback never before seen…
