Who's our most talented player at their current position ?

[Skooby]

I like to use this question to help figure out who we might draft, so who do you think it is & why ?

[Meathead]

1. robert woods - soft hands, great route runner, fearless over the middle. hes gonna be the best wr weve had here since andre easy

2. white williams - one of the best penetrating lineman in the league, should have at least one more stellar season left in the tank

3. gilmore - struggled coming back from the club arm but awesome rookie campaign was no fluke. gonna be a real shutdown cb

4. bad santa wood - just a top notch nfl center as long as his legs arent broken

5. freddie - would be #1 if he wasnt cheating father time worse than an amanda bynes driveway fire. that doesnt make sense but neither does freddies not hitting the proverbial rb wall already

Insane & logical, a difficult combo to pull off.

Halmark is more like it.

Don't know about Kyle WIlliams. Good at penetrating into the backfield but when opposing O's commit to the run, he gets washed out with ease and RB's gash us. He never gets double teamed like Dareus.

[DraftBoy]

CJ Spiller and it's no close at any other position.

Now is he our most effective player? Nope, but he's by far the most talented.

[Dr. Lecter]

Garrison Sanborn.

[Mr. Pink]

Dan Carpenter

[Pinkerton Security]

I havent seen Cordy listed yet - hes our most talented lineman, if he isnt the most consistent, and other than Wood is the only one I'd like to see stick around.

Our run blocking did get better as the year went on but still was far from good.

The last guy that made a decent ST tackle. :handball:

Tough question. Whoever it is, "I want them gone NOW." We don't like talent, it costs Ralph too much money.

On a bit less sarcastic note, I agree with DB. Spiller is incredibly talented. I also would say Byrd, and promptly duck (see above comment).

I wouldn't worry as much as people do about Kyle, or Dareus, or Mario. I think that people make knee jerk calls on who they "want gone." There are plenty of players that aren't the best in the league at their position, but some of the best players in the league are the only stars a team has. A salary cap is kind of meant to do exactly that, and it does.

As for the draft, I think that we could be improved at the WR position, but that may also be a QB problem. We have some speed, we have some guys that can catch, albeit not the guy that is the first look, but Woods is very good. I think another option, and a system meant to play to the strengths of the players that are actually on the roster would make a big difference. But a WR that you can throw to, and trust to make a difficult catch, is probably the way that I would go.

I think QB is a problem, but we are going to wait on footwork and stuff, because Manning didn't have a good rookie year. I don't think we have a Manning that we are waiting on, but you have to just buy into the hype at some point.

I disagree. Mario is the most talented player on the team. Obviously, he does not play at a level his talent suggests he should.

[Buffalogic]

I'm the most talented fan. I live up to my potential.

Most talented football player?

on offense... Freddy.

on defense... Kyle Williams.

That depends on how you define talent. He's is a specialist. He has a talent for a very limited part of the game. He's not a complete back, by far.

It could be argued (correctly, IMO) that Fred's talent is far more valuable. It's certainly no less a talent to be able to grind out yards inside the tackles than to be a pure speedster who is useless without gaping holes to run through.

CJ is Dave Kingman. A guy who would hit you 500 ft. HRs between striking out 50 times. Certainly 500 ft. home runs and 60 yard carries require talent, but I'd argue that hitting 30 home runs and batting .300 every year, (i.e. being a workhorse who would easily be over 1,000 yards every year were it not for splitting carries with CJ) takes more talent.

And I'd love to know what's up with CJ's respiratory system. I've never seen a pro athlete so consistently gasping for air.

CJ Spiller is the most talented? LOL. You fail.

Fred Jackson gets 10 yards when Spiller only gets 5. If you want to call THAT talent. FJAx drags tacklers for the extra 5. That's a talent that CJ Spiller doesn't have.

Your definition of talented is skewed. He may be talented, but he'll never be MVP.

It ain't Fool's Gold... take that to the bank!

[Mace]

I had a lot of trouble with this one, pure talent, proven talent, talented football player, talented athlete....

So I figured this way, talent compared to others at his position league wide, with proven numbers, no maybes. Not injury prone, doesn't take plays off, not good at one facet of game, bad at others....and would you want no one else in the league at that position instead....

Came up with Kiko Alonso.

On merit, Fred Jackson wins effortlessly in his own category of who is the most Fred Jackson player on the team..
