The following team can be had with complete ease in ESPNs mock drafts for a 12 team league "snake" drafting format, pretty much no matter where you draft. The format is 1 qb, 2 RB 2 wr, 1 TE, 1 "flex" 1 k 1 DEF, 7 subs.
Peyton Manning
Toby Gerhart
Danny Woodhead
Jordy Nelson
Wes Welker
Rob...
Gerhart's arrival automatically makes the Jags a team to root for. They've gone on record many times already saying he will be a true bell cow.
When's the last time a white RB was brought in through Free Agency to be THE guy? John Riggins? For that matter, even Alstott was drafted to split...
A thread to discuss where you think our prospects would fit nicely/have a good shot landing.
Very often is seems that our guys go to the absolute worst place for them to showcase their abilities (Hester to SD to sit behind Tomlinson, Leonard to St.L to sit behind Jackson, Gerhart to MIN to sit...
I think soy sauce and underwear were involved.

Pro Football Focus has an excellent top 101 players of 2011 list.
While there are many big omissions and puzzling additions, you probably won't find a better or more fair list out there.

I'm going to start this thread because I found this online in a question-and-answer blog for the Patriots.
"Q. Hi Mike, Jake Bequette and Chandler Jones had very similar "measureables." Both 6-foot-4/6-foot-5, 265-275 pound guys. Bequette had a better 40, 20-yard shuttle, and 3-cone drill...
Player suspensions in the N.O. Saints Bountygate scandal have been handed down.
Vilma has been suspended for the whole 2012 season until after the Superbowl. He pledged $10,000 of his own money for knocking out both Warner and Farve.
Anthony Hargrove was suspended for 8 games.
Will Smith was...
I was looking up Don Beebe's stats for the heck of it and noticed that he had an incredible amount of "home-run, flip the field" TDs (What I would consider 60+yard TD receptions) considering how few catches he had. I decided to look up a few "deep threat" WRs to compare him to:
Don Beebe: 8 TD...
I just added up the total yards of the top 50 black RBs (excluding QBs) and divided by total carries.
Result: 4.41 ypc
Peyton Hillis, Toby Gerhart, Danny Woodhead, and Brian Leonard (the only whites allowed to rush from the RB position....)
Result: 4.27 ypc
Was kinda a chore, but I was...
This is mostly gibberish but I thought I'd share because the "writer" makes the brilliant point that "It is sad to note that there are more Black quarterbacks on the bench than those that are starting."
Maybe he thinks it's racist that there are more black running backs on the bench than...
The RGIII era begins in Washington; it is sure to be a dark one. Literally...
Anyway, the 'Skins re-signed Adam Carriker to a 4 year deal, so that's good news.
Hands-of-stone Pierre Garcon was also signed, along with Josh Morgan WR from SF...
Here are those white defenders who I think are unarguably their team's defensive MVP:
GB: Clay Matthews
CHI: Brian Urlacher
MIN: Jared Allen
SF: Justin Smith
STL: Chris Long
HOU: Brian Cushing
JAX: Paul Posluzney
SD: Eric Weddle
From my football browsing these players are admitted by all...
Great to see Justin Smith and Eric Weddle get much deserved recognition, JS getting huge props on Niners fan boards, called best player on D ahead of Willis by most.
OL is a joke...Carl Nicks selection just ridiculous ahead of Mankins...
Found this hilarious, and awesome how conservative Allen clearly is. He mentions that he isn't allowed to carry his gun in New Orleans and he's afraid he's going to be shot.
DWFs having a field day in the comments section, Allen is clearly a racist...
I guess I'll just start this as I have a comment on the Redskins-Jets game:
Both teams will only start 2 Whites on offense, 3 for the Jets if you count Sanchez.
The Jets are now starting 4 whites on defense, with Garrett McIntyre starting at OLB.
The Redskins will be starting 3 Whites on...
It seems white players suffer from two wrongs: they are either never given a chance to show how good they are, or they are given a chance but are not recognized as starters. This thread is dedicated to identifying those white players who are CLEARLY outperforming whichever black player is...
Tampa Bay appears to be winning, starting only 3 whites out of 22 (OL Trueblood and Larsen, FS Grimm).
Pittsburgh is not far behind, starting only 4 whites (Roethlisberger, Miller, Keisel, Aaron Smith).
Philadelphia representin' with only 4 whites (FB Schmidt, OL Watkins and Herremans, MLB...
Thought I would start this topic now that Brandon Spikes is out for the rest of the season. Fletcher should get a lot more playing time, even if Guyton starts ahead of him. I'm glad Spikes is out, he's a real scum-ball from what I can see. His brother is in prison for first degree murder and...
It seems white safeties rotate in and out of starting positions more than at any other position. So for Week7 in the good 'ol NFl here are the starters (for this week, anyway). I was actually pleasantly suprised. I think white DBs are making a come back. Also included are those that are geting...
I'm actually not really sure on this one, which is why I thought I'd ask. On one hand, Harrison wasn't a threat to take Peyton's job after it became apparent to any rational human being that he sucks horribly. On the other hand DWFs can now start clamering to put in some "fresh blood". Bell is...
All the anylists and NFL "experts" are saying that Wes Welker will be shut down now without Moss to take away all the attention that should go to him. They then show a clip to prove their point.....only problem is that BOTH Moss AND Welker are double teamed. The expert then sheepishly says...
