OLB: Calvin Pace
ILB: Karlos Dansby
ILB: David Harris
OLB: Tully Banta-Cain
CB: Darrelle Revis
FS: Brandon Meriweather
SS: Jim Leonhard
CB: Leigh Bodden
A few notes:
-Bodden over Vontae for now, but I think Davis will be better after this year.
-Jenkins is better than Wilfork when healthy. Unfortunately, Jenkins wears down during the season. Therefore, Wilfork gets the nod for the NT position.
-Randy Starks would have been starter over Warren if he didn't move to NT.
-Debated putting Ricky over Ronnie due to injury problems. Fred Jackson could be a nice pick as well.
-Jairus Byrd could be there after this season. He has to prove that last year wasn't a fluke with just getting lucky a lot. Meriweather is a really solid safety.
-Harris and Dansby are the best ILB easily.
-It really really pained me to put Long over Brick, I think I just wanted to throw you guys a bone. :up:
Anyway, what say you? I thought this would be a good offseason thread.dolfan7171, Larryfinfan, Pagan and 6 others like this. -
Good list IMO. I think it's kind of sad that Meriweather is the best safety in our division though, going by your list. Not saying your wrong but I don't think he's very good and I'm a Canes fan. He blew a lot of assignments last year.

Interesting thread topic. Here's my crack at it.
QB - Tom Brady
RB - Ricky Williams
FB - Lousaka Polite
WR - Brandon Marshall
WR - Wes Welker
TE - Dustin Keller
LT - Jake Long
LG - Logan Mankins
C - Nick Mangold
RG - Brandon Moore
RT - Vernon Carey
DE - Ty Warren
NT - Vince Wilfork
DE - Shaun Ellis
OLB - Tully Banta-Cain
ILB - David Harris
ILB - Karlos Dansby
OLB - Calvin Pace
CB - Darrelle Revis
FS - Jarius Byrd
SS - Yeremiah Bell
CB - Leigh Bodden
For a bunch of 3-4 teams, the list at OLB is pretty depressing. Obviously there is young talent like Wake, Misi, Cunningham, Maybin, etc. that will be better in future, but when you're listing Banta-Cain and Pace...yikes. -

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHR31Q_a1Sc"]YouTube- Reggie Bush gets slammed[/ame]
Obviously Bush got the worst of it, but IIRC I'm pretty sure Sheldon Brown said he was totally blacked out and had no memory of the next 2-3 plays after that. It really is kinda scary just how much these guys can take and still play. Obviously Pool was pretty talented with the Browns, but you've got to wonder what's really going on. -

Wow, theyre are some good recievers in this division.

And if you throw the coaches in the mix it is even more crazy, Parcells, Belichick, Ryan, and even Nolan. -

Wouldnt that be something. Instead of a pro bowl we made 8 all division teams that played out an extra 3 weeks after the super bowl.....
Winning division gets a pizza party!
Play 6 games in the states the first 2 weeks. Then send the finals to Hawaii. Get 6 pro bowl caliber games in 6 different stadiums giving the owners some extra cash.

Underwhelming crop of RG's in the AFCE Deej.
Brandon Moore was actually waived last season so to me, Incognito is more than likely better than Moore.
I've had this thought before and I would absolutely love it. They could play laid back pro bowl style rules and make is something the players would enjoy and look forward to.
This would also probably satisfy our hunger for a longer football season as well. Too bad it will probably never happen.
Im not completely sure id call them the most talented division in football. Honestly there's only one starting QB in the division thats truly proven themselves where in the AFC North theres Flacco, Big Ben and Carson Palmer. Also you can not find better linebackers or defensive linemen than in the AFC north with all of the players Baltimore and Pittsburgh have alone. Heck just defensive players if you throw in a few of Cincys DBs. Also, the NFC East and South have tons of talent at all positions as well.
If you want to talk coaches, the AFC East is up there with Belichick, Sparano and Ryan but there are other divisions with three coaches just as good or better (NFC South, NFC East, even the AFC South)
EDIT: Also, think about some of the talent the Vikings, Packers and Bears(defense and Qb) in the NFC North.

There was another thread talking about all division teams and we debated about the strength of one versus the other. AFC East will field a pretty impressive offensive line but at the skill positions I think the AFC South dominates. I would take Peyton over Brady, like Ronnie but CJ or MJD over him, Andre Johnson and Marshall can cancel each other out and I'd take Reggie Wayne over Moss or any other second WR, then Dallas Clark at TE. Polite still wins at FB though. :lol:
