Burger King's Top 50 Players

[NoLuv4Jerry]

Are you sure you know what you're getting with Reed?

Most fans who see him only on the highlights or one or two games a year would be surprised if he suddenly was traded to their team.

absolutley I know...live in the DC area.....and if you don't believe me, ask Bill Belicheck

8. Mario Williams, DE, Texans (220)
12. Walter Jones, T, Seahawks (10)
13. Kevin Williams, DT, Vikings (14)
14. Julius Peppers, DE, Panthers (4)

These guys are definitely not better than Ware, no homer about it.

• Walter Jones isn't the player he used to be.
• Julius Peppers is VERY inconsistent.
• A top DT will never be as valuable as a top OLB/DE. DT stop runs up the gut, DE and OLB stop everything outside of the middle.
• The only thing Mario Williams was even equal to Ware last year was sack count. He isn't better at stopping the run, or dropping into coverage. That right he is a DE, not an OLB which by default limits his versatility. So the only way he could even be considered better than Ware is if he was just flat out better at his job than Ware was at his. Plain and simple, he isn't

With these rankings, I sincerely hope the Giants hire him as their next GM. Too many errors to even begin to discuss.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Mitch Albom should be No. 1.

Peter King around No. 250 as a sportswriter. Maybe top 200 as a food critic. (He never did say how the popcorn was.)

Judging by the way he stuffed it in his face, I'd say it was pretty good.

That was truly a Hard Knocks moment.

 

[McCordsville Cowboy]

The Defensive End rankings...

8. Mario Williams, Texans
9. Jared Allen, Vikings
14. Julius Peppers, Panthers
23. Osi Umenyiora, Giants
24. Patrick Kerney, Seahawks
29. Justin Tuck, Giants
32. Aaron Kampman, Packers
37. Dwight Freeney, Colts

How in the bleep bleep did Mario Williams top this group???

Because he is the most talented off them all....

 

[Chief]

This guy MUST be a HOF voter.

Yep, which explains a lot.

Peter should stick to ranking coffee. He really embarrasses himself here.

This is what happens when a sports writer/reporter migrates into the realm of analysis. Many of them aren't qualified.

absolutley I know...live in the DC area.....and if you don't believe me, ask Bill Belicheck

Bill Belichick knows where you live?

Scary.

 

[Romo2Bryant4Six]

Antoine Winfield is the second best corner in the nfl?? Since when?>

LOL I could think of 4 or 5 guys who I'd take before him..and Three of em are on our roster! :starspin

 

[Romo2Bryant4Six]

Because he is the most talented off them all....

he is also the second youngest..King probably took a little away from Osi since he was playing next to Strahan.. and Mario was opposite of ________?

 

[Chief]

Bill Belichick knows where you live?

Scary.

:laugh2:

 

[Da Hammer]

Overall horrible list. Nothing to see here folks, move along, move along...

 

[Raffy15]

anyone got a problem with brady being number 1?

 

[Arch Stanton]

I could actually care less what he thinks, but if he thinks joe thomas is better at his position than Demarcus ware is at his, then more power to him.

Kind of silly if you ask me.

Ware's gonna have chance real soon to test how good Joe Thomas is.

 

[YosemiteSam]

anyone got a problem with brady being number 1?

With the way he performed last year? Not one bit.

 

[Raffy15]

With the way he performed last year? Not one bit.

yeah, he did kind of shred our defense.
