    All Billszone Team: FS

    The All Billszone Team: Each day for the new few weeks I will be posting a position for discussion. Every active NFL player at that position is eligible for nomination. I will leave each thread open for about a week and tally the votes at the beginning of the following week until we have a full roster. When considering your vote, think of the players who have the most impact on the game today, I will use the runners up for our depth positions back-up RB WR etc... The All Billszone Team will be announced on Coach Sal's Show Bills Now in a few weeks. You're representing the Zone, so choose well!

    Please bold your vote... it will help me track the results.

    Todays position will be free safety. I expect there to be quite a few different names brought up here.

    Byrd, Rhodes and Reed are certainly eligible for this discussion, but my gut has me leaning towards Antoine Bethea or Brian Dawkins.

    Based on history and consistency I vote for Brain Dawkins. OJ Atogwe is also a personal favorite of mine.

    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    While I think Brian Dawkins is the best all around FS in the league, just to be different and keep an eye to the future, I'll say Nick Collins from Green Bay. He's picked up his INTs the last few years and is a consistently good tackler as well.

      Ed Reed - I'll take the ball hawk with return skills at FS over a guy that gets a lot of tackles.

      Bonus: 4 blocked punts, 3 for TDs.

        Ed Reed, easily. He takes over games as a safety, and makes breaks on the football that no other safety makes. He does have a bit of an advantage with the defense that is in front of him and that allows him to take some chances, but he is simply the best.

          depends on whether you consider Polamalu a FS or a SS.

          If he's not elligible, my vote goes to Dawkins.

            Troy is primarily a SS.

              Most random set of positions so far...

              Ill say Darren Sharper just because of his longevity and every time he gets an INT he appears to get a TD off of it.
              COMING SOON...

                I am going to try and move all over the map in terms of positions. To Keep interest up... Imagine if I did a whole week of O-Line?

                        This is probably the only position where a bills player can sniff the list and even then it's a long shot. So I'm gonna go hometown and say..

                        Jairus Byrd.

                          Brian Moorman will dominate the punter category!

                            Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                              I have to say Ed Reed.

                              Though you really have to wonder how good Byrd would be if you put him behind a really good front 7, like what Baltimore has.
