8 HOFers NFL Draft : Chat

[Gold Rush 86]

Man, everyone hates this team....

I'll get mine in as soon as I can, but it'll be a bit.

Besides myself and Jeffro ranking me 4 my team isn't getting any love either. I'm a big believer in a strong running game and a great front 7. I don't care if you have the best DBs in the world if you can't get to the QB coverage will breakdown. A great D-Line and LBs can make a DBs look a lot better than they are. Great CBs can't do that for a D-Line and LBs.

I guess you don't watch that team in your own division? Not that their front 7 sucks or anything but still. Also Revis is who put the Patriots over the top after years of their D not being good enough.

Then why am I ranked low since I believe I have a great running game and front 7?

On a side note, a kid that played 3 years of summer ball called to tell me he'd been picked in the 3rd round of the MLB draft. Then our HS coach called and said a D1 school called and asked about my son, who is a Jr. My day has done a 180LOL

Hawks have a great secondary with Sherman, Chacellor and Thomas. But they also have a great front 7 with Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, Bobby Wagner and Bruce Irvin. They lost Chris Clemons to the Jags during the offseason last year. Kevin Williams is old as shit but he was still better than average. Revis might of put the Pats over the top but they had Rob Ninkovvich and Chandler Jones on the outside and Vince Wilfork was a huge body in the middle stopping the run. They also have great LBs in Jamie Collins and Donta Hightower.

 

[Gold Rush 86]

You do have a great front 7. But in terms of this draft I have u in the bottom 3 at WR, RB and QB. Your O-Line isn't bad but I wouldn't say it's the best in the draft.

Marcus Allen following FB Moose Johnson behind Munoz and you say I have bottom running game? Hmmm

My only problem with your squad was some defensive guys out of position. Same with Gold. All the teams are good

 

[Ritzarmy]

I built a running game not a passing offense. Don't need a strong qb or WR to run the ball. Just need a decent WR and qb to stop the defense from stacking the box. Everytime in these drafts guys ignore the running game and move on. Wlk and I talked about this in round 2 when I drafted Munoz. ZERO teams have faired well in playoffs with a running game. Jeffro who I play has the best receiving core out of everyone but it means nothing if the qb doesn't have time in the pocket. My front 7 will be harassing Kelly all day.

Like who?

I didn't say you had a bottom running game but a bottom RB. Sanders, Payton, Dickerson, Campbell are all better than Marcus. For QBs I have Fouts and Stabler as the bottom 2.

#1 Montana, #2 Elway, #3 Marino, #4 Young, #5 Kelly, #6 Moon

The RB is only as good if he had a good o-line in front. I do agree fouts and Allen aren't as good as the players you listed but they fit my team concept of running the ball.

I would also like to know who im playing out of postion? Howie Long LDE, Bob Baumhower NT, Charles Haley RDE, Kevin Greene LOLB, Chris Spielman LILB, Jessie Tuggle RILB, Robert Brazile ROLB. Not sure if ur talking about any of the listed positions but everyone on my front 7 played at the right position. William "refrigerator" Perry would make for a great NT being 300+ pound but he played DT not NT.

The fact you have Elway 2nd is nutz!

 

[Gold Rush 86]

Well I did take him #3 overall. I was between him and Marino and decided I liked him more. You cant just go off stats all the time. You do have to figure in championships. Now start the whole he only won cuz of TD talk. So what does Marino have to say for getting beat down in the SB?

 

[Gold Rush 86]

49ers 38 Fins 16!!!! Laces out Marino! lol

I've always disagreed with Nos about this but I learned to get it go years ago lol

I agree. I always loved Elway but I was a Bronco fan growing up till age of 15 then switched to Redskins. Poor life decisions we make as kids. Nos has a dislike for Elway and thinks he is waaaay overrated. Well Nos is overrated and we still vote for him so I don't see the difference.
