June 30, 200818 yr The top 50 thread inspired this one... Who would you rate as the #1 player at each position in the NFL? I can give a few off the top of my head, others I'll need to look at closer. QB - Tom Brady RB - LaDainian Tomlinson WR - Randy Moss DT - Albert Haynesworth CB - Antonio Cromartie FS - Ed Reed
June 30, 200818 yr QB - Peyton Manning RB - LaDainian Tomlinson WR - Randy Moss DT - Albert Haynesworth CB - Asante Samuel Safety - Bob Sanders or Troy P.

June 30, 200818 yr Author I really can't argue with that list. :thumb: I would add Jared Allen and Jason Taylor as DE's... I had a pretty good idea on a few other positions, but wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking somebody...
June 30, 200818 yr Add Shawn Merriman at outside backer. Mike Allstot(bad spelling) at FB. Champ Bailey is still my go to guy to cover someone, but maybe Deanglo Hall.
June 30, 200818 yr Author You could say the same about LT...but he is still the best at the position. LT is still producing at a level that makes him the best...Ray Lewis is not. His production has slipped, he's lost a step and he's become injury prone. He's still a great player, but he's not at the top of his position anymore...
June 30, 200818 yr Add Shawn Merriman at outside backer. Mike Allstot(bad spelling) at FB. Champ Bailey is still my go to guy to cover someone, but maybe Deanglo Hall. Alstott is retired, so that probably doesn't work. Love the way Lorenzo Neal plays at FB, he'd be a huge FA get here late in the game. I'll add some that haven't been said yet. OG- Alan Faneca OT- Walter Jones MLB- Patrick Willis, Brian Urlacher OLB- Demarcus Ware, Lance Briggs FS- Bob Sanders SS- Troy Polamalu

June 30, 200818 yr QB: Brady (I like Manning better but that one is hard to argue) Palmer would be 3. RB: LT (Adrian Peterson is the next great back if he stays healthy) I like what Addai + Grant bring to the table as young runners too. WR: Randy Moss (T.O. is the TD machine) Slot: Wes Welker TE: Antonio Gates (class by himself but there is a lot better depth there now) Oline: A. Fannica (Steelers are going to miss him dearly) W. Jones then the rest. Saturday, Mangold etc would follow. FB: The position is almost gone now but Neil would be my choice right now. DT/DE: Haynesworth, Stroud, Seymour OLB/Rush E: Jared Allen, Jason Taylor, J. Peppers (he is on the downside though I think), S. Marriman ILB: P. Willis, B. Urlacher, B. Scott (he plays outside more but he will take over for Ray Lewis IMO). Safey's: B. Sanders, E. Reed, T. Polomaulu Corners: A. Samuel, C. Bailey, A. Cromarte Specialists: K: R. Longwell Returner: Adam Jones Short yardage back: Marion Barber Scat Back: Brian Westbrook Coach: J. Fischer, B. Bellicheck Assistant Coach: M. Kiffin, Alex Gibbs
