BwareDWare94 723 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) As a Vikings fan, I'll take the NFC North: PLEASE NOTE: This was an off the top of my head idea that I typed up in 5-10 minutes, so if there is anybody glaringly missing, it is not intentional. Quarterback: 1. Rodgers (Green Bay) 2. Stafford (Detroit) 3. Cutler (Chicago)--Please note that Cutler immediately surpasses Stafford if his play from last year continues. 4. Bridgewater (Minnesota) Running Back: I'll rank every player looking to get a decent workload: 1. Peterson (Minnesota) 2. Lacy (Green Bay) 3. Langford (Chicago)--will surpass Lacy if he shows consistency 4. Abdullah (Detroit)--will surpass Lacy if he shows consistency 5. McKinnon (Minnesota)--Would be higher if Peterson wasn't going to get 85% of carries) 6. Riddick (Detroit)--will surpass McKinnon if he stays healthy 7. Starks (Green Bay) 8. Zenner (Detroit)--Look for Zenner to steal carries if Abdullah is hit or miss like last year. Wide Receiver: 1. Nelson (Green Bay) 2. Jeffrey (Chicago) 3. Tate (Detroit) 4. Boldin (Detroit) 5. Cobb (Green Bay) 6. Jones (Detroit) 7. Diggs (Minnesota) 8. Adams (Green Bay) 9. Wright (Minnesota) Kevin White withheld because of no NFL snaps. Same as Laquon Treadwell. Tight End: 1. Rudolph (Minnesota)--He sucks the least of all these guys. 2. Miller (Chicago)--He will surpass Rudolph if he fills in nicely for Bennett. 3. Cook (Green Bay)--Strictly if he returns to form 4. Ebron (Detroit)--Consistency, please? 5. Quarless (Green Bay) 6. Rodgers (Green Bay) 7. Pettigrew (Detroit) 8. Ellison (Minnesota) 9. Pruitt (Minnesota)--will rise significantly if Rudolph sucks, as expected. Edited August 2, 2016 by BwareDWare94 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry 1,302 Posted August 2, 2016 Langford averaged 3.6 a carry last year though. Also Stafford > Cutler if Stafford looks like second half of 2015 Stafford. 19 TDs to 2 INTs after based Jim Bob Cooter took over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oochymp 2,393 Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) I'll give the AFC South a shot, I'm gonna start with doing this by memory the look up to make sure I don't forget anyone major (and I'll indicate anyone I forgot initially with a *): QB: Andrew Luck Blake Bortles Marcus Mariota Brock Osweiler this is a tough group because only one player really has much of a sample size, and even that isn't that large, this could look at lot different by the end of the season RB:Lamar Miller DeMarco Murray Frank Gore TJ Yeldon Derrick Henry Chris Ivory Robert Turbin* (couldn't come up with who was backing up Gore) Alfred Blue Holy Committees Batman, talk about a mess of mediocrity, Henry is probably the most likely to move up, Gore is probably the most likely to move down (he's gotta get old at some point, right?) WR:DeAndre Hopkins Allen Robinson Allen Hurns TY Hilton Cecil Shorts* (forgot he was still in the division) Andre Johnson (much as I hate to admit it, he's probably already our best WR) Donte Moncrief* (couldn't for the life of me come up with the Colts' #2) Kendall Wright Rishard Matthews That's a pretty damn good top four, then a huge drop off TE: Delanie Walker Julius Thomas Dwayne Allen* (couldn't remember which TE Indy still had) Craig Stevens Marcedes Lewis Anthony Fasano I promise, I looked up Houston's tight ends, didn't recognize any of them so they don't get a spot, sorry Fart Edited August 3, 2016 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oochymp 2,393 Posted August 3, 2016 AFC North QB Ben Roethlisberger Andy Dalton Cody Kessler/RGIII (I wanna believe) Joe Flacco gotta disagree with you on that, Flacco may not be a great quarterback, but he's way ahead of Griffin and Kessler's a rookie, no way I'd put either of them ahead of Flacco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry 1,302 Posted August 3, 2016 gotta disagree with you on that, Flacco may not be a great quarterback, but he's way ahead of Griffin and Kessler's a rookie, no way I'd put either of them ahead of Flacco Flacco is known for being better than he really is IMO. He is a turnover machine. Not saying Griffin isn't bad for turnovers either, but I trust that Hue gets him to a place where he can at least score 15 TDs to every 9 or 10 INTs. Last year's Flacco was terribad and I don't think it improves this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I think a lot of RGIII's issues came from a toxic environment in DC that ruined who he was as a player. Also Flacco is a slapdick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last year's Flacco was terribad and I don't think it improves this year. Aside from one season where he had 22, Flacco has never had more than 12 picks in a season and the most fumbles he has ever had in a season was 3, which doesn't specify whether those fumbles were lost or not. Flacco is not even close to a turnover machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flacco is not even close to a turnover machine. Last year he had 14 TDs to 12 INTs. In a league where guys like Ryan Fitzpatrick is like 31 TDs to 15 INTs. I'm not talking about the years before last year. If we're speaking strictly how he has looked lately, he has looked like shit. And coming off an ACL tear with virtually no changes to the team, he is likely going to look like shit again. Give me a mediocre Kessler or a well-coached RGIII over the train wreck that is Joe Flacco right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For most of the season, Flacco's primary targets were Kamar Aikan and something called Crockett Gilmore. Flacco shits all over RG3 as of right now and all over anything Kessler has of a career. Either way, he's not a turnover machine by any means and if his weapons stay healthy this season, Baltimore will be a playoff team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BwareDWare94 723 Posted August 4, 2016 guess we'll find out The QB position is so strange. Look within the AFCN division, for instance. Andy Dalton can set fire to a defense on any given Sunday, while he can also shit himself and single-handedly lose the game. There are so many guys that we simply don't know what to expect out of each and every week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
