No. I wastnt trying to be biased. These are just my opinions. there were a lot of Dolphins in the top spots also. Bledsoe, Spikes, Moulds. Williams are definitely #1. Winfield and fletcher are both debateable. Your ranked all my #1's on your list #1 also except for Winfield.

I've been hearing that Shaw is expected to oust Reed from the number 2 spot - we'll see.

04-04-2003, 02:49 PM
Reed plays a great slot receiver and it seems like Shaw will replace the speed of Price. Could be an interesting experiment in the preseason.

gonzo's is the closest to accurate..

pennington is on pace to be the best qb in the division.. i believe he will be this year.. and if you say that you cant rate him as such after only one good year.. take a look at henry at the #2 spot on the RB list..

agree with RBs.. henry should surpass williams this year.. imho

putting shaw on any top 4 list is rediculous.. and not having conway on that list is nuts too .. conway will prove to be as good as coles was last year. mouldsy is still tops though.. and hopefully josh reed earns a spot on that list... but now i see.. moulds, conway, brown, chambers..

TEs.. we lose in a land slide at this point.. we are last.

FB.. to not have Konrad in first is nuts too imho... he is by far the best fb in our division.. no question.. and crosby is better than gash at this point.. but our combo of fb's should be in the #2 spot.

the first list didnt have bowens in there at DT.. which is crazy.. other than Pat Williams.. he is by far the best DT.. he made the pro bowl as well. and seymore is the best young tackle in the nfl, let alone our division.

to put M. Jones on any list after he hasnt done squat in 2 years, and not much before that is wishful thinking at this point.. the dolphins should have 2 guys on that list.. and the jets should have 2 on there.. schobel just misses out of the top 4.. jones isnt on the radar right now.

the cornerback thing is so tough to call..

our secondary doesnt make enough plays.. to be there with law and surtain.. does that mean they wont this year? no.. but they havent yet. i dont know.. i dont even care to really rank them.. there is too many.. we have two good ones, but there are at least 3 other top quality guys in our division at CB that could be on the top of that list.

not much to say about FS and SS.. they are about right..

lindell is good at 3rd in the division.. cant move him ahead of vini or mare.. they are both very solid.

Ublinkwescore..

that is the most biased list i have ever seen bro..lol.. i mean you can be optimistic, but come on.. lol

I guess most of you are "hoping" that some players will turn out the way you rank them.

You are as good as your last performance. With that being said Zach was the no. 1 tackler in the NFL. No way is Fletcher better than Zach at this point.

Moore and Campbell over McMichael?

M. Jones was good as a Buc but hasn't played a down as a bill. Plus his injury isn't 100% healed.

Shaw over Chambers? Shaw isn't even a no. 1 on any team and not even on ours so how does he rate better than Chambers?

I know. I laughed at WCF's power rankings and to be fair with him, Ublink's is just as biased.

I don't even know where to put Gash. He was great for us years ago , but I don't know wherehe's at at this point in his career. For a rookie, McMichael has out performed both Campbell and Moore and yet he's not even on the list.

Granted that Brady isn't as good as Drew when Drew is at his top, he isn't as bad when Drew is bad.

Shaw at no. 2 is funny.

We shall see who's full of crap at the end of the season.

We've got a balanced offense that is supposed to be more Henry based this year.

What does Henry have to do with Shaw being no. 2 in the entire AFCE?

Ublink, I am not against your rankings. Like I said your ranking is based on the hope that they will end up like that. I am with you on that hope.

LOL! Ranking Feidler 1st in the division? Based on what, exactly? Look at the numbers, they speak for themselves. Want proof? Say "Pro Bowl"

1 Bledsoe
2 Brady
3 Pennington
4 Feidler

I'll give you Ricky at #1, cause he's the best back, look at the numbers. Following that logic, how in the hell can you put an aging and injured Martin above TH? Look at the numbers. I won't even entertain Antowain on that list, I think the Bills and Jets both have backup RB's on their rosters right now that are better than him (Sammy Morris and Lamont Jordan).

1 Williams
2 Henry
3 Martin
4 Morris/Jordan/Smith

HenryRules

I can understand, yet completely disagree with, someone putting Martin slightly ahead of Henry. Martin has done it year-in-and-year-out and the second half of last season, I'd say he was the best back in the division. That being said, I'd still say #4 for Martin.

I can't understand how anyone could possibly say that Fielder is the best QB in the division though ... that's just laughable.

The one ranking I disagree with on most lists is Marcus Jones as a top 4 DE. I'd love it if he could repeat his 2000 year, but from what I know, he was healthy in 2001 and didn't do much at all. I'd say he's behind Schobel on our team (who I'd have as #4 in the division) and the guy on the Dolphins whose name I can't pronounce, but I'll give a shot at spelling, Adawalie Hogonley (who I'd have as a #5).

My list:
QB - Bledsoe, Pennington, Brady, Fielder
RB - Williams, Henry, Martin, Smith
FB - Konrad, Dyer, Crosby, McCrary (I like Gash for leadership, but don't think he has much left).
WR - Moulds, Chambers, Brown, Moss
TE - Graham, McMichael, Becht, Moore
DE - Taylor, Abraham, Ellis, Schoebel
DT - Bowens, Williams, Adams, Ferguson
MLB - Fletcher, Thomas, Bruschi, Jones
SLB - Colvin, Lewis, Posey, Greenwood
WLB - Spikes, Cowart, Phifer, Rogers
CB - Law, Surtain, Madison, Clements
FS - Jones, Marion, McGraw, Prioeleau
SS - Milloy, Garnes, Freeman, Wire
K - Vinateri, Mare, Lindell, Brien

QB
1. Pennington (by far the most consistent in regular season)
2. Bledsoe (When he's on hes the best, when not he's the worst)
2. Brady (little more consistent than bledsoe, this can go either way)
4. Fiedler (Does have good winning %, but due to ricky and D)

RB
1. Williams (no aurgument here)
2. Martin (martin gets it done year in and out, most consistent in the division)
2. Henry (Breakout season, fluke or not he's on the rise)
4. Jordon (A. Smith sux, only shows up 2ice a year vs the bills)

WR
1. Moulds (head and shoulders above the rest in the division)
2. Chambers (good WR, bad QB, imagine what he could do on our team)
3. Brown (Overachiever everyone forgets about, does well in the system)

1. McMichael
2. Pat TEs (no single dominate TE, rather all get highly involved)
