Struggled with only a few decisions like C and Guard spots only because I'm not really sure how some of the guys are playing on other teams this year. I tried to do some research to see who has more or less penalties and what not. Vick vs Eli was a tough call also. Vick has missed a few games with injury but Eli has had a couple bad games also. I just think the time Vick has played he has been more impressive. At DT, I went with Haynesworth because I dont think any DT has really been that impressive in the NFC East and the few games that Big Al has gotten into recently he has been a beast. I consider Tuck a DE which is why he wasn't included.

Bradshaw > Shady
Canty > Cofield and Haynesworth
Eli > Vick
Michael Boley should also be on that team. He's been the best true LB in this division this year.

Eli should definitely be over Vick and I don't know how Bradshaw isn't over Shady as well. As for the rest very good job. I'm not really sure Seubert should be on it actually.

i realize as a giants fan that you would prefer bradshaw but it really is a toss up from a non bias view. their total yards are all almost identical and shady to me is more versatile and has 2 more tds.

with Seubert i honestly dont know enough about how the other guards are playing this year but i know the skins guards have to be at the bottom of the list.

[Giantsfan1080]

Well the TD thing is moot to me because of Jacobs vulturing them. As for the other Bradshaw is just as good as a receiver out of the backfield as Shady is but we just don't call as many screens. The total yardage is close but Bradshaw still has more.

[bigbluedefense]

Bradshaw absolutely deserves the RB spot. I'd put Eli over Vick only bc Vick missed too many games.

I'd put DJax over Moss. Canty over Haynesworth easily, Canty has been an absolute monster and Haynesworth only plays as a situational pass rusher, and I can make a strong argument that Goff is outplaying Fletcher right now. I'd probably go with Bradley only bc he's teh sex.

QB: Eli

FB: Sellers
RB: Bradshaw

LT: Doug Free
LG: Todd Heremans
C: Gurode
RG: Snee
RT: Winston Justice

TE: Jason Witten

WR: Miles Austin
WR: Hakeem Nicks
WR: DeSean Jackson

Pass Rusher: Osi Umenyiora
DT: Barry Coffield
DT: Chris Canty
Pass Rusher: DeMarcus Ware

LB: Michael Boley
LB: Rocky McIntosh
LB: Jonathan Goff

CB: Corey Webster
CB: DeAngelo Hall
FS: Antrelle Rolle
SS: Laron Landry

Kicker: Graham Gano
Punter: Don't know.

I tried using pass rusher instead of DE to kind of even out the differences between the 4-3 teams and the 3-4 teams. And I didn't specify exact LB positions, instead had 3 LBs in general.

I decided to put Goff instead of Bradley bc he's just having a better year.

Giving Doug Free his due... Ok BBD I see you doing that research!

As far as punter... it's gotta be mcbriar, since we will now be punting 10 times a game!

And no dez?!?!!?!?!?

Ha just kidding, nice list. Not to be a homer but ratliff deserves some type of mention, he's been ballin out still even tho the rest of the defense has quit.

He deserves it more than D-Ware at the moment.

Ahmad's just running the ball better right now. He's really morphing into a mini-AD, McCoy's been more productive catching the ball but we don't use Ahmad much as a receiver and when we do he's good, and when he's in to block he does a good job usually. Shady's doing very well, but right now Ahmad's just playing better.

[NY+Giants=NYG]

I wouldn't take McCoy over Bradshaw. Bradshaw at one point, since we had the bye it pushed him back, but before the bye, he was # 1 in rushing. Why on god's green earth would McCoy be head of Bradshaw?? That makes zero sense. However the rest looks decent enough.
