QB-Peyton Manning
RB-Maurice Jones-Drew
RB-Fred Taylor
FB-Vonta Leach
WR1-Marvin Harrison
WR2-Andre Johnson
WR3-Reggie Wayne
TE-Dallas Clark
TE-Owen Daniels
ill do defense on the next argument


I assume we're not doing O-Line, then? I'll just do your setup:

QB-Peyton Manning
RB-Maurice Jones-Drew
RB-Fred Taylor
FB-Greg Jones
WR1-Marvin Harrison
WR2-Andre Johnson
WR3-Reggie Wayne
TE-Dallas Clark
TE-Ben Troupe

Changes at FB and TE.


DE-Dwight Freeny
DT-Marcus Stroud
DT-Amobi Okoye (i cant think of anyone else)
DE-Mario Williams
LB-Keith Bulluck
LB-Demeco Ryans
LB-Gary Brackett
CB-Rashean Mathis
CB-Dunta Robinson
FS-Bob Sanders
SS-Chris Hope


OK, first of all, you have two middle linebackers...so here I go:



DE-Dwight Freeney
DT-Marcus Stroud
DT-John Henderson (Okoye has NO NFL experience)
DE-Robert Mathis
OLB-Keith Bulluck
MLB-DeMeco Ryans
OLB-David Thornton
CB-Rashean Mathis
CB-Dunta Robinson
FS-Bob Sanders
SS-Chris Hope


Changes at DE, DT, and LB.


hey i dont want this to sound like coping but im going to change my DT to your guy beacause i couldnt think of
anybody at the time.

anyways robert mathis is not as good as mario williams (going by rookie year) in which mario had a foot injury and still
played the entire season so he will definitly do better this year also considering that he has more help on the line.
and i will change Demeco Ryans to OLB because that is what he played in college and could easily go back to that position


OK, first of all, kind of unfair to change your thing, just because you didn't have the foresight to look up players...but whatever.

Mario Williams isn't close to Mathis, Mario had an average rookie campaign (47 tackles, 4.5 sacks, 1 FF), Mathis's career averages are 47.75 tackles, 8.75 sacks, 4.75 FF. Much better than Williams, who has played 1 SEASON anyways. A rookie, despite an injury, is still a rookie. Not enough true experience.

And now you are just cheating, you've made 2 changes:

-You changed your DT to mine.
-You also changed DeMeco Ryans to OLB, despite the fact he is (in PRO football) a MLB.

Be sure to comment, people.

Greg Jones over Vonta Leach? Leach is like the most underrated full back. He's a steller blocker, and can get the tough yards by reception or carry...

August 3, 2007  10:39 PM ET

OK, TheGovernator, let's get this out there: Vonta Leach has never had a carry in the NFL, despite playing 3 years (and 28 games). He also only has 11 career receptions.

Not to mention that he blocked for a bottom-20 rushing game last year (21st in yards, 20th in ypa).

August 3, 2007  10:43 PM ET

Also, when he was on Green Bay in 2005, he played in all 16 games, and helped GB get 30th in yardage, and 31st in YPA. Quite the keeper.

August 3, 2007  11:15 PM ET

Vonta only started the last few weeks for the Texans last year, Jameel Cook was fullback for most of the season. I think the ypg and ypc went up quite a bit when he was playing.

August 3, 2007  11:16 PM ET

where the hell is joseph addai?

August 3, 2007  11:21 PM ET

Peldon, would you take Vonta over Greg Jones? Who has proven he can block, and catch, and run.

August 3, 2007  11:26 PM ET

I'm not saying that, just letting you know that Vonta only played in a few games last year so taking the yearly ranking is not a valad arguement. I would take Jones right now but that might change after this season.

August 3, 2007  11:42 PM ET

I predict DeMeco Ryans will be on demecoryans1's defense.

August 4, 2007  12:43 AM ET

not enough changes, they are pratcially the same minus the number 2 TE and the FB......

August 4, 2007  12:52 AM ET

Owen Daniels is going to make a name for himself this year.

August 4, 2007  08:45 AM ET

he gave you a present with fred taylot...all you had to do was replace him with addai....seriously, taylor over addai...wwwhhaaat?

August 4, 2007  08:48 AM ET

Rossi...when we're talking about 4 teams, there's not much to change...

SanFran, Addai hasn't even started a game yet, has he? Fred Taylor has been consistent for years.

August 4, 2007  03:36 PM ET

Addai is overrated. Everyone is forgeting the fact that he never carried the load for his team in indy or at LSU. He struggled a lot last year running between the tackles that's why they had to give Rhodes so many carries. Addai can't do it on his own.

August 4, 2007  05:46 PM ET

i meant to put kyle vanden bosch at DE

August 5, 2007  04:15 PM ET

yes but he was drafted at OLB and could go back to that if he was needed to like if houston got a great one or he went to another team like the bears that are already set at that position

August 5, 2007  05:26 PM ET

im just borrowing your DT

August 5, 2007  06:32 PM ET

First off-he's not an OLB in the NFL. Therefore, he can't be moved there.

And you made your list, you can't change it because I proved I found a better player.

August 6, 2007  03:23 PM ET

when did you find a better player

 
August 6, 2007  03:32 PM ET

My DT, whom you decided to take.
