- Note: "Players Not in the Hall of Fame" was updated in 2014 with the Andre Reed segment being replaced with Tim Brown and the Cris Carter segment being replaced with Charles Haley.

Brown was replaced by Marvin Harrison, Jerome Bettis was replaced by Tiki Barber, Charles Haley was replaced by Orlando Pace, and Marshall moved up to the #2 spot. In 2016, Harrison, Pace, and Ken Stabler were inducted into the Hall of Fame, meaning the list will have to be updated once again.
