1. Fuck Jahvid Best, he sucks. Gets absolutely no yards after contact. Put Ryan Mathews in there instead.

2. Tony Moeaki > Aaron Hernandez.

3. Gotta get Mike Iupati on that O-line.

4. Lamarr Houston > both Dunlap and JPP


Also you forgot about the 3-4 defense. I'm not going through that though.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Everytime I watch the Giants, JPP is making plays.

Who watches the Bengals?...but Dunlap has a shit load of sacks. Houston played well when I saw the Raiders played.

As for Best...dude is electric. Big time playmaker.

[Epidemik]

how WR Jacoby Ford OAK is not on that list is very dissapointing, if not at WR definite lock at KR

[Aso]

I don't know about JPP and Dunlap tbh but Lamarr Houston should be on there. He's starting while those two are situational players and he has played pretty well.

Also Best is averaging 3.2 ypc. Once he gets touched he goes down. I was a huge fan when he was coming into the league but I'm not so much anymore. There's more to being an NFL RB than just being fast.

Alualu > McCoy

Alualu > McCoy

Alualu plays next to Knighton, and honestly, Alualu while alright...not super human either.

[SHOGUN]

Daryl Washington > Angerer

LOL

Mariani has both a KR TD and a PR TD, while setting a franchise-record for kick return yards this season. He's been one of the most consistent and best return specialists all year. Not as flashy as Ford and his blazing speed, but he always finds the right hole and accelerates past defenders.

Haden and McCourty have been studs at CB this year, but if we could add another CB slot, Alterraun Verner deserves some recognition. Unlike the aforementioned corners who were first-rounders, Verner was a fourth-round pick and took over the starting job opposite of Cortland Finnegan after the Giants game when Jason McCourty broke his arm. Ever since then he's been the best player in the secondary, only giving up one touchdown while making some big open-field tackles and some clutch interceptions. Teams have started to shy away from him and started to pick on Finnegan, which has worked out just fine for the opponents, unfortunately.

[Aso]

Jacoby Ford has less returns and more touchdowns than Mariani.

[Aso]

Daryl Washington > Angerer

If only the Cardinals gave him more playing time earlier in the season.

Alualu plays next to Knighton, and honestly, Alualu while alright...not super human either.

I'm not saying Alualu is better than McCoy, but he deserves more respect than this.

[Woy]

Jacoby Ford has less returns and more touchdowns than Mariani.

You misinterpreted my LOL statement. I said it because Epidemik said Ford is the clear-cut choice at KR, when that simply isn't the case. You can make an argument for both certainly, but even though Ford has more return touchdowns, his kick return average is lower than Mariani's (Mariani has 11 more 20+ yard kick returns than Ford) and he doesn't return punts.

Even though he's on my team, I'm with Larry in taking the guy who's been more consistent and can return both kicks and punts. After watching players like Alvin Pearman, Chris Davis and Kevin Kaesviharn at returner last year, I'm blessed to finally have someone back there that doesn't make me want them to take a touchback every time.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

I'm not saying Alualu is better than McCoy, but he deserves more respect than this.

I'm not saying he is a bum...I'm just saying he isn't some future All-Pro.

Like I said when Jacksonville drafted him. He is a good player, will be a good player, but he isn't the type that will be an All-Pro. After his rookie season, I still believe that. He isn't a Suh, he isn't a Ngata. I'm not even sure this group (Alualu and Knighton, a real good player at NT) will be as good, at their best, as Stroud and Henderson were at theirs).

[Bear Pand]

So pissed to see Saffold on this list while Jerry Hughes is absent. Indy messed up in the first round last year.
