2 bengals on that roster. Hope you don't mean Boling when you say G is a weakness. He's a road grader.

tanglewood1420 posted:2011 could end up being one of the greatest drafts in NFL history. It's early obviously, but there are several potential Hall of Famers in this team already. The 2011 draft was great I think it only looks so dominant because all of those guys are in their primes right now. I love Cam but most of these other quarterbacks blow him out of the water and there really isn't a run game to speak of for the class. As of right now I don't know that anyone has a better team than 2003. The Puppy Bowl fucked around with this message at 10:23 on Apr 13, 2014 |

2010 would be an all time great minus one position. QB: Sam Bradford, Tim Tebow RB: CJ Spiller, Ryan Mathews, James Starks, Joique Bell FB: John Conner WR: Demaryius Thomas, Dez Bryant, Antonio Brown, Victor Cruz TE: Rob Growkowski, Jimmy Graham, Aaron Hernadez OT: Jared Veldheer, Bryan Bulaga, Trent Williams, Rodger Saffold, Russell Okung (Could kick Saffold inside to tackle) OG: Mike Iupati, Jon Asamoah C: Maurkice Pouncey DT: Geno Atkins, Ndamukong Suh, Gerald McCoy DE: Greg Hardy, Jason Pierre Paul, Carlos Dunlap, Lamaar Houston LB: Daryl Washington, Sean Lee (IR), Navorro Bowman, Brandon Spikes CB- Joe Haden, Sam Shields, Alterraun Verner, Devin McCortney (I know he's a safety but yeesh there's too much talent at safety from this year) S-Kam Chancellor, Earl Thomas, TJ Ward, Eric Berry K/P:: Zoltan Mesko KR: Trinton Holliday That defense would make the 2007 Patriots cry for their mothers.

ROSS MY SALAD posted:They don't get that far without Lynch and you know it If you replace Lynch with a league average RB they have a very good chance of making the Superbowl anyway I think that's a less outrageous argument to make than saying that you'd be better off with a top flight RB and Kevin Kolb at QB than Cam Newton and a Murray or Vereen Besides, my point was that you don't absolutely have to have a great running game to be an elite or championship team. Just because the latest team to win the Superbowl had a great RB doesn't mean it's a prerequisite

QB is more important than RB but running the ball is still an huge part of building a good team and if it's a weakness it'll get exploited.

With that line and those receivers Kevin Kolb would look like Tom Brady. Well, maybe an early era Tom Brady..

# ? Apr 13, 2014 23:52 |

So then what does Cam look like with his receivers? AJ Green, Julio Jones, Torrey Smith, Julius Thomas And having to spy Cam every play gives Vereen or Murray an easier time of it running the ball
|
# ? Apr 13, 2014 23:54 |

I'd figure having Calvin Johnson around makes running the ball a bit easier too. 2011 is better overall but not better on offense. It's all moot anyway, I still think 2003 beats up on everybody.

2002 will be hard to top for worst lineup.

So this weekend I'll pick up football mogul and figure out if it'll work for us. Next Sunday or Monday I'll close this thread and open the voting thread and we can start voting on rosters. Gerneral consensus seems to be: Roster 14 offensive players, determine base personnel, * for base personnel. 15 defensive players, base and nickel?, * for every down. KR, K, P, LS if available Yes to Free Agents and SD. 3 years of experience Any last second arguments? Good idea. VVVV Eifert Posting fucked around with this message at 04:40 on Apr 17, 2014 |

Can we expand defensive rosters to 15? That way we could field a dime DB as well. There's definitely enough offensive firepower to warrant running a dime. (Or even a quarter but finding 7 decent DBs in a draft may be pushing it.)

I mean he is 34 now, but I really don't know the whole story there. Age. He just wasn't fast enough to keep up with anyone anymore. I was hoping the Chargers would convert him to Strong Safety and pair him up with Weddle, because Jammer is still a great tackler and really good against the run, but financial reasons wouldn't allow that. He was the longest tenured Charger on the roster after Tomlinson left, and I really wanted him to end his career here. Really awesome, standup guy.

This is what I came up with for 2005.
