unless you want to nit pick, it's hard to argue with that list

[nolafan33]

Its a good list...maybe I juggle the order of DE, DT, a bit but pretty darn good...

I'd still put Vilma ahead of Lofton. Though both have struggled in pass coverage this season.

[unconquered.]

Your DT rankings are a joke. Turner being 3rd is just flat out dumb.

[Tom Servo]

Your talking to nola and he is steadfast especially on Turner because he is inconsistent? :blink: :wacko:

Nola is about as contradictory as a four year old compulsive liar.

[Tom Servo]

The little pizz ant could have a bright future in politics?

Nah. He's way too inconsistent.

It's about time for another one of these, here is the last one:

DT:

1a- Sedrick Ellis

Add: Its a sad thing that both Hollis is on this list. Meanwhile, Babineaux plays on almost every defensive snap for the Falcons, he's not very much part of the rotation.

Pierre Thomas can't even be considered above Turner and D Will. PT has an incredible passing game and a very good OL to help open up his rushing lanes. Williams was quiet to start the season, but has really turned on the jets recently, just a little bit earlier then Turner did. Their end of season stats should be fun to compare.

Thomas DeCoud will jump Tanard Jackson over the course of the season, I have absolutely no doubts about that. He has been absolutely lights-out for the past few games.

I haven't watched Goodwin play, but McClure to me, is the weakest part of our line.

I'll agree with you that Turner should be put above PT because of his last two games though. But I would still take PT over Turner because of his versatility, compared to Turner.

Why is Gonzalez above Shockey? Shock has been targeted 12 less times yet only has 4 less catches and 32 less yards. Each have been very good blockers.

I can agree with that. Wait and see though.

Goodwin is a solid center. He currently could be upgraded, but he isn't a bad C.

In your shoes, I probably would take PT over Turner too, seeing as you have the best passing game in the NFL. However, on ANY other team (with the Colts & Cards as possible exceptions), Turner is the obvious, every down workhourse.
