who do you take? couple buddies and i been thinking about it all afternoon, and we can't even come close to a consensus. yes, a good left tackle is important, but more important than a great skill player? is a stud WR or RB more valuable?

 

i'm going

 

1. Rodgers

2. Megatron

3. Pat Willis

4. Demarcus Ware

5. Ngata

Patrick Willis

Aldon Smith (because I think he's going to be GREAT)

Nnamdi Asomough

Hard to argue with this list...although I think I would plug in an OT instead of Ngata with Ware and Willis already on the squad to wreak havoc on the D. You can grab a good DT like Kyle Williams later.

I wouldn't take an offensive tackle because there are no great ones in the NFL right now. Very good yes, great ones no.

 

I would have Aldon Smith AND Jason Pierre-Paul… the two best young pass rushers in the game and both good run players as well.

 

I would take either of them ahead of any offensive tackle.

So, quit playing hard to get. Who are your 5? (Joe Thomas is a wall)

You've been saying this a TON this week but haven't heard it from you much before. Recent article read, or studying up on them lately or?

 

I think there's atleast one borderline great stuck in a media blackhole (ie Cleveland)

Just the results of a lot of thinking about the subject.

 

But I agree with you and Beerball about Joe Thomas.

 

It's possible I've discounted him somewhat due to him playing in virtual anonymity.

 

But I stand by my belief that this is not a golden age for offensive tackles.

Well, I do believe in the 4 pillars so

 

Rodgers

Joe Thomas

Revis

Ware (maybe a few others here... Aldon smith has been unreal as a rook, Pierre paulsa freak)

 

And I think that Calvin Johnson could be a once in a generation NFL player (not just wideout) and is young so he's my 5th

 

 

I think you could walk out just about anyone with them and be a contender.
