The thing I like is that we're waaaay under the radar. None of the "experts" think we'll be anything to talk about. And I love that. In '04 it was all about Gibbs' 1st season back in the league and all the hype around that. Then we stunk and no one talked about us going into '05. Low and behold, 11 wins and a trip to 2nd round of the playoffs. Then we go get Saunders, Arch, ARE, Lloyd, and everyone is talking Super Bowl. HA! We flopped. And now again, no hype or respect. That's fine with me. Our guys seem to play better when they aren't respected.

You bring up a good point Smooty, and that is why I think there is a chance we can have a great year. Chemistry is very important to make a run for the Lombardi. Thing is we really needed to upgrade the defensive line and we ended up getting 2 LBs that more or likely will just end up being special teams lifers. Landry was the only guy we drafted that will make any impact for us in the near future. In terms of fantasy value, I was a homer last year had Moss, Cooley, Redskins D, and JC for a bit as backup/starter when MB was finally pulled. I ended up dumping Moss rather quick, but lucked out when some fool cut TO. JC stunk and I lucked out when someone dumped Romo. Skins D blew chunks last year and I can't see the addition of Fletcher and Landry a rook making that much of an impact on a sorry ass unit. Cooley came through for me less than the previous season(I have had Cooley on all my FF teams since he became a Skin). People have said JC and Llyod have been working together in the offseason, so hopefully we will see marked improvement come the Miami opener. I just think guys should wait til week 2-3 before picking any Skins FAs out there. Drafting them as starters is just too risky IMHO. Only a marked increase in execution will get us to the playoffs this year. To me that is a 50/50 proposition.

I would like to know how Prisco has Greg Jones as the 6th best FB instead of Sellers, and Mack Strong when Jones MISSED ALL OF LAST SEASON! This just shows you how much of an idiot Pete Prisco is.

Half of the list was made by Pete friggin' Prisco, so that could be a reason why...

Prisco is a dip shit. Fred Taylor at number 5. WTF is wrong with him. He must be high.

really bad list.

How much of the hype for Dawan Landry comes from being on that defense? He plays with Reed, Mcallister and Rolle. If he didn't have that kind of talent around him where would he be?

It's hilarious that Kellen Winslow and Jeremy Shockey are both on the TE list and Cooley isn't.

GhettoDogAllStars · 07-09-2007, 01:01 PM

Frank Gore at #3?

Andre Johnson is better than Torry Holt and Marvin Harrison?

Kellen Winslow is better than Crumpler?

Kerry Rhodes? Who the f*ck is Kerry Rhodes?

This guy has no business writing football articles.

Kerry Rhodes is only one of the best young safeties in the league, probably better than Sean Taylor.

If you don't know who Kerry Rhodes is... Wow man.

Also, as much as I hate "The Soldier," he caught 90 balls in a miserable offense. He's pretty damn good.

Until this team starts winning we will never get any respect. Right now we dont deserve any. Nobody expect maybe Cooley could be rated high at his postion. No one on the dling,LB or CB, or Safety. NO one on offense now since Portis is coming of injuries.

jdlea · 07-11-2007, 08:47 AM

I was okay with everything until I got to defense. Dawan Landry is the 4th best safety in the NFL?! Are you kidding me?!

Also, Fred Taylor is not the best 5th best running back in the league, but I could have lived with that.
