nycdan Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 My offering. I'll do a longer write-up later but in general, I went for strong lines on both sides of the ball (and pretty happy with the result). It's a classic 4-3 Defense but with the best pair of DTs possible (literally 1 and 2 or perhaps 1 and 3 if Merlin Olsen sneaks in there) and a top-5 DE on one side and a violent but effective one on the other side. Wilcox is specifically tasked with eliminating the opposing TE while Lambert just snarls and drools until the ball is snapped and then goes on a murder spree. I think my DBs are talented if not all-timers (other than Renfro) but the Safeties are young and that could be exposed if the opposing offense has the O-Line to buy enough time. On offense, once I drafted Brees I knew I needed a monster line to give him room to work and with Upshaw, Stephenson and Gregg, I have 3 of the absolute best out there (all top-5 at their positions on Brandt's lists). Hill and Turner are not historically dominant, but there's not really a weakness there and while Turner is young, he's between two of the absolute best vets and will be fine. This unit is specifically meant to be good at pulling (all of them). Warfield is fantastic on the long routes and Monk and Davis are solid enough short and long but also both very solid blockers so we have options. Finally, I went with Lynch rather than the 3rd WR because I love power running behind this line and Martin can run or (if I understand it correctly) run an RPO which behind this pulling line should be awesome. I need to think about that a bit more but I generally tried to get players who could move and do many things well. Would love to hear your thoughts on how you'd run this offense. One decision I struggles with a little. I considered Edgerrin James instead of Martin but this was before I was certain I was going Lynch instead of WR3. Had I know that, I might have preferred James for the better pass catching production (and he was an awesome runner his first few season) but overall, I like Curtis as an all-around player. I don't think James was taken but curious to hear thoughts on that as well. Had a blast. Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first glance your team looks unbeatable but when you compare player to player it’s pretty much a wash with the exception of a few. Montana is clearly better but your WRs are better but mine are more of a deep threat. The right side of my oline might be the best in this draft. RBs are even with the edge in receiving going to Allen. On D my team has the advantage on passrushers by a lot, CBs are a super close. Deon edges out Allen, he’s the best cover corner in history, Blount edges out Adderley. Run support advantage to my CBs. Deon sucks at run support. Safeties go to me in both run support and coverage. Overall trying not to be bias but of course I am, I’d say NYM takes the win. Better QB, Passrush and deep threat. QB - me • Game Control - me • Touch - me • Deep ball - you • Leadership - me • mobility - me • Turnovers - me RB - equal • Running - equal • Receiving - me • Blocking - equal • Home Run - you WR - you • Hands - you • Deep threat - me TE - equal • Blocking - me • Receiving - you Oline - me • C - equal • OG - me • OT - me DL - me • DT - you • DE - me • Run - equal • Passrush - me by a lot LB - me • MLB - me • OLB - me • Passrush - me by a lot • Run - me • Coverage - equal DB - me • CB - equal • Coverage - you • Run - me • S - me • Coverage - me • Run - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Island Leprechaun Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Not sure how we go from here. My goal was balance on offense, with a powerful running attack (Earl Campbell and Leroy Kelly with Steve Young also a threat) and sure handed receivers (Antonio Brown, Charley Taylor, Kellen Winslow) who could also tie down the secondary. My trench guys are plenty of beef on the hoof at the point of attack -- man blocking over zone. On defense I was going for a pressure defensive line with speed linebackers (Bell, Urlacher, and Robertson were all fast) who were outstanding in coverage but also could blitz. Duerson and Harris were hitters. Wright and Green were smart and capable corners who were both "very good" but not super elite. I think we could put up a fight against any team here. We'd probably be most hurt by a team with elite deep threat potential and do the most damage to a team whose defense was built for pass rush over run defense. Just want to again put in a good word for Leroy Kelly. The guy was an outstanding RB who got lost somewhat in the shadow of Jim Brown. But he was absolutely an elite back. He had tremendous acceleration, could cut, had speed, and shed blockers over and over again. Watch him return punts and you'll see his capacity for individual effort -- like a bigger Gayle Sayers.

But, I love my o-line, secondary, and d-line, and Big Ben to Keith Jackson would be immortal. All in all, I’m a B- squad, but this was fun to play. It’s fun to reminisce about these old players you forgot about when the league was actually appointment television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
