HarleyQuinn Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 LB Rickey Jackson The Glory - 6x Pro Bowl Selection - 1 SB Ring The Stats - 1,173 tackles - 128 sacks - 40 forced fumbles & 29 fumble recoveries - 13.5 sacks in 1992 at age 34 - Converted to DE in 1994 at age 36 and in 1995 he had 9.5 sacks Probably not as celebrated as other players but he was a member of the Dome Patrol in New Orleans and not only would he be devastating in my 3-4 defense but he'd be able to make the big plays left and right like all my players on defense should be. He averaged 8.5 sacks per season and 3 forced fumbles a year. That now gives me 2 players who between them could get 6 FF a year and still kill the QB with a sack.
Gert T Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Nice last three picks, all solid defensive players. And Shawne is already working on his legend. 3 All-Pro's, part of the Eli deal (right?), Lights Out, suspended for steroid use.
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Nice last three picks, all solid defensive players. And Shawne is already working on his legend. 3 All-Pro's, part of the Eli deal (right?), Lights Out, suspended for steroid use. Correct, he was drafted by the Chargers with the 12th pick in 2005, which they got from the Giants the year before. He also wailed somebody with a judo stick at the most recent WWE pay-per-view.
MFer Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Well, I definitely need a pass rusher right now. It was a tough choice considering all the great players still out there, but I finally decided on... Richard Dent 4x Pro Bowl selection (1984, 1985, 1990, 1993) 5x All-Pro selection (1984, 1985, 1988, 1990, 1993) Super Bowl XX MVP Tied for 6th all-time in sacks (137.5) This guy really should be in the Hall of Fame already, but I'll gladly take him on my team regardless. Simply a dominant player as well as a great athlete (8 INT's at DE). I wasn't trying to recreate the '85 Bears (especially being a Lions' fan), but hey, who wouldn't want Singletary and Dent on their defense?
Jorge Gorgeous Posted June 16, 2008 Author Report Posted June 16, 2008 nogoodnic takes WR - Terrell Owens 5x All-Pro selection (2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2007) 6x Pro Bowl selection (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2007) Receptions 882 Receiving Yards 13,070 Receiving average 14.8 Receiving TDs 129 Nic says his team is too nice... so... here's T.O. He's nice like how black people say things are "nice" not like how your aunt does.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 That's a fuckin' football coach, there. I consider him the father of the NFL as we know it. The 4-3 defense? That's his. Flex defense? Him too. Motion offense? Perfected by him. A focus on keying certain players and analyzing tendencies of offenses as part of an overall defensive gameplan? Check. The Yin to Lombardi's Yang with the Giants during the 50's. Twenty straight winning seasons in Dallas? Not done by any other team in NFL history. Tom Landry. His brilliance behind the greatest defensive minds and bodies in the history of professional football. This isn't going to be a tough defense, this is going to be an unstoppable killing machine.
Smartly Pretty Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 I'm not sure people realize just how many records this guy actually holds. He averages 86 catches a season, which is an NFL record. Most receptions in a single season, as we all know, with 143. Only player to have 50 or more receptions in his first 11 seasons in NFL history. Caught a pass in every game of his career until December 31st 2006, which is another record. 8 time pro bowler, super bowl winner, Marvin Harrison
Brett Favre Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Great pick. I'm surprised he dropped this far.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Agreed. He's top 5 all-time in my opinion.
Just John Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 I continue with my effort to reunite the All 90's Defense with... Aeneas Williams - CB 8x Pro Bowl 5x All Pro 90's All Decade Team 55 career INT's 795 career tackles I'd say he's also being inducted to the Cardinals Ring of Fame or whatever this season, but that might seem like damning him with faint praise. Even though he played for a shitty team for his best years, he's still a tremendous individual player and gives me my ace corner. Hopefully Harley plans on drafting a RB who can block.
HarleyQuinn Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Give me time and I'll grab a few RBs who can block but honestly, RB isn't that important for my Run & Shoot team so it's allowing me to focus on defense and other offensive positions.
Kahran Ramsus Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 I know people are down on WRs, but Harrison really dropped too far. I have him ranked better than several of the WRs taken before him thus far.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 If Irvin didn't drop to me, I was going to take Harrison.
Gert T Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Is the 8 hours up on somebody? Seems like its been awhile.
jwest27 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Yeah, VX's time is up. Broward can pick if he wants. He should do that so I can immediately pick after him.
Guest Vitamin X Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 What? Oh shit I didn't know it was my turn. Hold up a second, I'll make a pick. S JACK THE MUTHAFUCKIN ASSASSIN TATUM "I like to believe that my best hits border on felonious assault." Career Stats INT 37 INT yards 736 Games 136 Career Highlights and Awards * 3x Pro Bowl selection (1973, 1974, 1975) * 5x All-Pro selection (1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977) * Paralyzed some Patriot motherfucker legally, while in a game. It goes without saying, one of the hardest hitters to ever play the game. I figured with all the great wide receivers going, and already having Woodson and Harrison, this was the last guy I needed to ensure that I had the most murderous secondary available. Got Moss? Rice, Harrison, Michael "break his neck like a pussy on hard turf" Irvin? Bring it. No running game defense- yet- but with all the defenders I have, including Hendricks, there's no way any team is going to have the ability to pass on me. I need another corner, sure, but with the three I already have, I can definitely wait until the later rounds. I figured I should take him now because I had a feeling Agent was eyeing him at some point later, and I didn't want to be left without having the awesome Harrison/Tatum safety duo.

Guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Probably a reach, but I'm very tired. Not in the best frame of mind to pick. # 6x Pro Bowl selection (1999, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006) # 5x All-Pro selection (1999, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2006) Brian Dawkins. Maybe the best safety left, maybe not. But I needed one.
CanadianChris Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Shannon Sharpe, TE Receptions: 815 (2nd all-time among TEs) Receiving yards: 10,060 (1st all-time among TEs) Touchdowns: 62 (2nd all-time among TEs) 8x Pro Bowl selection (1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2001) 6x All-Pro selection (1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998) 3x Super Bowl champion (XXXII, XXXIII, XXXV) NFL 1990s All-Decade Team My incredibly biased choice for greatest tight end ever. Excelled as a receiver, and a very good blocking tight end as well. And he owns one of my favourite athlete quotes ever: "Mr. President, call in the National Guard! Send as many men as you can spare! Because we are killing the Patriots! They need emergency help!"
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Marvin Harrison being the 7th receiver taken in the draft is a crock of shit. I'd take him over every active WR selected without flinching.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Marvin Harrison being the 7th receiver taken in the draft is a crock of shit. I'd take him over every active WR selected without flinching. I'd take him over any receiver in history not name Jerry Rice.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 That's ballsy, but I could make that argument too. I wouldn't without flinching, but Harrison makes a case for #2, definitely. Historical perspective and all that.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 I have a draft prediction. Bored takes Jim Kelly this round and Gert gets pissed.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 That's ballsy, but I could make that argument too. I wouldn't without flinching, but Harrison makes a case for #2, definitely. Historical perspective and all that. If prime takes a priority over longevity then I wouldn't call him unquestionable #2. But his consistency, in my book at least, counts for a lot.
Gert T Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 I like Harrison at #4, behind Rice, Hutson & Moss.
Gert T Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 I have a draft prediction. Bored takes Jim Kelly this round and Gert gets pissed. Why you revealing my strategy!
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 9 Teams have yet to choose a QB. I'm not taking Kelly, and someone's going to blink soon.
Smartly Pretty Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 JJ Johnson and I had an argument about whether or not Harrison was a good pick. I think it pretty clearly is. His argument was that he has Peyton throwing to him. I feel like I got a steal with Curtis Martin too, but I'm a Jet fan.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 "Peyton throwing to him" is pretty close to the worst argument I've ever heard regarding football.
