CarAV: 64

Earl Thomas is the only defensive back to have jumped Berry in the class' pecking order. And he has done so by a wide margin.

It shouldn't be so surprising, all things considered. In seven professional seasons, the Seahawks' safety has generated 407 tackles, 60 pass defenses and 23 picks. This multi-talented defender has even chipped in 10 forced fumbles and 2 touchdowns in 107 career contests.

In two consecutive seasons -- 2012 and 2013 -- Thomas posted a career-high AV of 14. In them, he also supplied a total of 120 tackles, 20 pass defenses and 11 forced turnovers.

Those represent two of Thomas' three All-Pro campaigns and five Pro Bowl seasons. And in the latter of the two, Thomas won an NFL championship.
