2. Jason Witten

6. Chris Cooley

 

WR:

19. Santana Moss

24. Roy Williams

Looking at the Rankings their isn't too much to gripe about besides maybe Igor getting left off the DE list and Columbo not getting in but all in all it seems pretty accurate for right now. Felix and Tashard both made the top veteran prospects for any who were wondering.

pretty good

I 100% on qb. Witen should be 1, i don’t see how hes not. But I think Roy will be around 15 or so at wr. The list loses legitimacy imo with gurode and andrews at the top of their center and guard rankins. Andrews hasn’t been healthy/great in over 2 years, and gurode makes so many comically (for other teams’ fans) dumb ass plays that its a joke to have him at 1. Snee, Davis and Herrmans are properly ranked though. I guess i mostly agree with their tackle rankings. But injury aside, Flo has outplayed Peters the last 2 years. And columbo absolutely deserves to be there. He has shut down so many elite players at RT.

Defensively…their wrong on mikell. He is a legit player, much moreso than hamlin. At corner, WAYYY too much credit for Hall. I’d take both jenkins and scandrick over hall. I’m fine with their defensive line rankings, after igor got benched last year he needs to earn his stripes again. I think bradie should be a little higher, he played damn well over the last 3 months last year.

There are lots of people that go to church on Sundays to get in touch with God. Personally, my church is on Sunday as well, it just happens to involve watching the Dallas Cowboys.

clearly Witten should be #1

Easily better than any TE in the game and the QB rankings look dead on.

In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Jun 2, 2009 10:42 AM CDT reply actions  

Gonzalez...

Still better than Witten.

My thoughts:
  • As I read the responses, my feelings almost exactly mirror foyesboyes. That’s one smart dude.
  • QB ranking are right on, in my opinion.
  • Witten is 2nd to no one. I guess they have Gonzalez there?
  • Gurode as the best Center in the NFL is a joke. He should barely crack the top 10.
  • The Sporting News ranked Olshansky as the 11th best DE in the NFL. Cant believe he doesnt make the list at all here.
  • Ratliff is probably a little low here at #10, but then again tackles in a 4-3 will put up better numbers.
  • The most glaring mis-ranking (besides Gurode) is putting Mikell at 21st. If that’s the case, can we please offer Ken Hamlin for him straight-up?

haha thanks

give us mikell for hamlin and we’d be golden. Hes not a playmaker but hes a very solid, reliable player.

Why the hate for Hamlin

just a year ago he went to the pro bowl, and this year, he missed Training camp and had to deal w/ Watkins/Davis most of the year at SS

Hamlin > Mikell

Is it too early to ask what round I should aim for Felix in my fantasy football league?

by Aaron Novinger on Jun 2, 2009 2:46 PM CDT up reply actions  

Since when is...

Ken Hamlin: 16gms 74 tackles 53 solo 1 sack 2 passes deflected 1 int
better than…
Quintin Mikell: 16 gms 93 tackles 68 solo 2 sacks 9 passes deflected 3 ints (2nd Team All-Pro)

Whoever thinks Hamlet is better than Mikell. Get your head straight.

Hamlet...

There is someone who needs to get their head straight

by aussie_cowboy on Jun 3, 2009 3:52 AM CDT up reply actions  

Soooooooo, Hamlin had a bad year and Mikell had a good year?

Big F’ing deal! Our team has had an overachieving year, too—in ‘07. Don’t get too excited about last year. Could be your guys’ turn to implode.

Not really

Mikell played the same way the year before when he had just 11 starts. Last year was his first full year starting. He is the real deal. Jim Johnson’s defense never implodes. Even if he is not on the sideline, its his defense.

He's gonna be playing next to Sean Jones this year, though.

While Jones isn’t all that bad, is perhaps Mikell’s rise some of the reasoning for letting Dawk leave?

At least now you have 2 young safeties for Brian Stewart to coach up down.

no hate

just that that ranking is ridiculous. Mikell was an all pro, with good reason.

by foyesboys on Jun 3, 2009 12:30 AM CDT up reply actions  

Gurode is listed as a good center because he is the best run blocking center in the NFL

no other center can match his power. That’s not a joke – would love to see an end to the mistaken snaps of course, but there is a reason some people love Gurode

by AustonianAggie on Jun 2, 2009 2:52 PM CDT up reply actions  

Not Bad

This list is not that bad, but like everyone else I think Hall is way too high for CB’s (just like Gurode is too high for centers) and that Witten and Ratliff are too low.

I also would say that there is no way Webster is the #7 in the league and Rogers is #16. Webster isn’t bad, but #7 is too high for him based off the fact that I don’t think he possesses the elite cover skills of a top corner. As for Rogers, he is aguy who has never shown me enough considering he was never trusted enough to cover T.O.

Still though, the list is prettty good compared to some of the lists I have seen.

webster

is a damn good cb. I’ve watched many giants games living in ny, and he is a great cover corner in this league, and doesn’t have the added health problems newman has.
