Q, if we're looking at the player's peak performance/or the body of work that represents the best period of their career - then we're cool with ignore things like off field stuff. I mean OJ's been "respectfully" picked... I have this thing where a large number of my favorite players turned out to be criminals. I think it’s going to be personal preferences, which is what will make this so interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to take my 2nd DT because I could not let him drop any further. My team is going to have weaknesses, but the middle of my DL with Bob Lilly and Mean Joe is not going to be one of them.

I'm afraid we're all going to have pretty strong teams. Not sure how anybody is going to vote this out. I wonder if that's even worth it. Drafting and discussing is the fun part for me. The voting is going to be interesting because some teams with older players may not get the credit they're due. I think I'll be interested in creative systems with players that fit them and teams that match up well in certain ways. There may even be a little rock-paper-scissors thing to it. Team A may match up well against Team B but be vulnerable to Team C. But in the end, it's going to be a lot of yelling and whining and we won't be thinking about pre-preseason so it's worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My team has four linemen out of six players. No RBs or WRs yet. So it's not sexy. But my hope is I will add the sizzle later on and the entire team will be solid. It will probably be all about "does the RB make the OL or does the OL make the RB" debate. Should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
