The folks over at Pro Football Focus released its top 50 players entering the 2020 season.
Coming in at No. 35 on the list is Vikings Pro Bowl safety Harrison Smith.
Here’s what PFF wrote about Smith:
Harrison Smith has been the player who makes Mike Zimmer’s defense go in Minnesota. Smith is the foundation stone around which every coverage shell the Vikings run can be built; he is the movable piece that allows everybody else to slot into the role to which they are best suited. His consistency at a position where play often fluctuates has been remarkable. He has never had a full season of play that earned an overall PFF grade lower than 75.0, and he has four seasons at 85.0 or above.
Smith has been a huge part of what makes this defense click since being drafted 29th overall in the 2012 NFL Draft.
Also on the list representing the Vikings are Anthony Harris and Danielle Hunter.
