I gotta go with Ray Lewis. I'm not a big fan of his. But he is a workhorse with an endless motor. And he brings unprecedented leadership and motivation skills to the Defense. He automatically makes any defense better.

The best can either be read as the most elite, or the most productive. Most elite. Probably the Falcons or the Broncos But most productive, I would put the Colts in there as well. Reggie Wayne, an impressive slot burner in TY Hilton, and Darrius Heyward-Bey who is purpose built for their West Coast Offense. Adding in the TEs, that's hard to ignore.

1. Andrew Luck- Easily. The franchise player we build a team around. 2. Reggie Wayne - Our top veteran leader. A perennially solid 1000 yard receiver. Future Hall of Famer. Mentor to a very young and inexperienced offense. 3. Robert Mathis - The Reggie Wayne of our defense. Our defensive captain. Veteran leadership and locker room presence. 4. Vontae Davis - Our top corner. Young talented corner with the potential to become a true shutdown man cover corner. Arguably our most talented defender. 5. Anthony Castonzo - Might take some flack for this from Colts fans. But our LT is arguably our top pass protector. The gigantic Castle that protects your King is massively important. Yeah that's right it's a Chess metaphor. And he certainly lives up to the Castle moniker at 6'7 320lbs.

Thanks buddy. Good to have a welcome. The Miami one is based mainly on the fact that I hate teams who try to buy success. My disclaimer is that the original poster said "bold".

Nice game. I'll do some but not all. I predict: The Colts will win the AFC South (as a die hard Colts fan) The Raiders will receive the no 1 pick next year and select a new QB The Seahawks will make the Superbowl The Bengals will win a playoff game. (Agree with you on this) RG3 will miss at least 3 regular season games due to injury Denver will have at least 13 regular season wins and get to the Superbowl Mark Sanchez will lose his starting job by week 4 of the regular season Chicago will not make the playoffs Miami will have a top 5 pick in the draft next year The Patriots will have a bottom 5 pass defense Blaine Gabbert will get benched at some point in the season Carson Palmer will pass for at least 4300 yards for AZ KC will be a .500 team DeMarcus Ware will get less than 10 sacks in the new 4-3 Doug Martin will lead the league in rush yards
