Just don't want the Packers there
However, even more so I don’t want the 49ers there winning #6. Either way, as long as it is the AFC that wins the super bowl I am cool with that.

I’ll be rooting for the AFC in this years super bowl. I hate all of the NFC teams that remain. Saints were the only team I didn’t mind being there…

I'll root for any of the NFC Teams
Over the AFC, unless the Texans make it. I can’t stand the Patriots and don’t particularly like the Ravens.
Wow just wow. I had to go home and ff my DVR to watch the ending of Saints 49ers and charge my Iphone
I call that play from Alex Smith to Vernon Davis either “The Redemption or The Vindication!”

He's pretty good.

My buddy, a diehard Skins devotee, has said a rumor has surfaced that puts Peyton Manning and Jeff Saturday to the Skins for Fred Davis, the Skins 2012 2nd rounder and their 2013 1st rounder.

Who to trade and who not to
My opinion is that you keep your core, and your core are VERY few but important guys. Everyone else you use an economic efficiency argument. So Romo, Ware, Witten, there’s no reasonable trade you can offer me. Sean Lee might enter that list if he becomes the battlefield general of the defense like the Saints’ Vilma.
Felix? I’ll trade him. Doug Free? I’m listening. Miles Austin? Absolutely love him, but there’s a price.
The Patriots who are famous for trading guys employ this strategy, but even they keep their core together. There’s no price you can offer them for Tom Brady. Logan Mankins, a 29 year old guard would seemingly be a prime target to trade but instead they made him the highest paid guard in the league at $51 million because he’s one of their core guys.
I think you have to know who makes up the heart of your team and keep them together while shifting the pieces around them.
by Blue Eyed Devil on Jan 14, 2012 8:49 PM CST up reply actions
Fair points
I would definitely trade the following guys:
1) Felix
2) Free
3) Austin
4) Marty B
I would listen to a trade offer for the following guys:
1) Jenkins
2) Ratliff

If Miles can stay healthy, he is a pro bowl receiver.

I didn't like Denvers gp
going to have to trust Tebow. He got them this far. way to much option. Pats allready handled that in the first gm. Too late now. It will take a huge God intervention miracle to win now. But hey, don’t forget the Buffalo Frank Reich gm!

Are Gronkowski and Hernandez really TE's?
Seems to be the only reason they’re listed there instead of WR is their size. Neither seems to do much in the way of traditional TE duties beyond receiving (although I confess ignorance of most of New England’s games).
they are both really athletic, big, and they block as well

Patriots D isn't lacking talent. It's just really young at LB and secondary.
This is their coming out party. Belicheck is also getting ahead of the next trend in the NFL with all the rule changes to aid more offense:
1) go back to the 4-3 defense
2) get young athletic dbs and LBs
3) play less zone and more man coverage

We'll switch back to 4-3 after Ware retires

I'm not sure that Ware isn't at least as good a DE as he is an OLB
How many times does he drop into coverage? 5% of the time?
I think the major impediment to making Dallas a 4-3 team is that we don’t have 3 true linebackers. We have Sean Lee and that’s it.
by Blue Eyed Devil on Jan 14, 2012 10:16 PM CST up reply actions
I actually agree Ware could be awesome as a 4-3 END
If you think about it, under Wade Phillips, we used 4-3 allignments in our nickle package. Ware and Spencer would line up as ends, with Ratliff and Spears lining up as DTs.
That was our base defense against passing teams if I’m not mistaken.

I would really think hard about selecting Vontaez Burfict
He’s not a criminal or thug. He’s just got to learn how to channel his aggression on the field, something Suggs had to learn.
Imagine this Ryan package:
1) Ware and Spencer/Butler on the line as ends;
2) Ratliff and Brent/Lissenmore as DTs
3) Carter, Lee, Burfict lineup as 4-3 LBs: Carter’s the Will, Lee’s the Mike, and Burfict is the Sam

The 4-3 argument held up better with Spencer
I do not see Butler succeeding at all in a 4-3.
The Cowboys are not in a position to transfer into a 4-3 now. Carter panning out is a huge leap of faith then you’d have to find another linebacker and another DE.
Quite frankly I think that Spencer is a better DE than an OLB and I hope he’s signed by a 4-3 team. With him gone, I believe the best course of action is to double-down on the 3-4 and try to find the best OLB possible (Bruce Irvin, Melvin Ingram) to make this scheme work.

Wasn't a fan and I'm still not a fan
I think Laurent Robinson is a better player than Demarius Thomas. Thomas’ status in 2011 were worse than Dez’ rookie season. And I think most of his big plays come from teams committing safeties to defend Denver’s run because they’ve had no respect for Tebow’s passing attack.

What?
Look I hate Marty B too but Marty B was taken two years before Gronkowski. Jerry gave the team Sean Lee instead of Gronk. If you want to hate on Jerty at least be half way honest about it. Look, you win some and you lose some. That’s the way the draft works. But let’s not act like he chose Martellus Bennett over Gronkowski. They had a first round grade on Lee but a second on Gronkowski that year, yeah Bennett sucks but it’s not like they passed up a cant miss guy for him. Geez.
