  • My own ranking...so far:

    1. Garrett

    2. Baker

    3. Haden

    4. Ward

    5. Phil Taylor

    6. Njoku

    7. Shelton

    8. Peppers

    9. Mingo

    10.  Richardson

    11. Weeden

    12. Coleman

    13. Erving

    14. JFF

    15. Gilbert

    The fact that I can only go like 4 deep here to find what I consider good players is just pathetic. 

  • My ranking would mirror the Gippers, except maybe moving Erving up to 10.(Didn't he do pretty well in KC? Was it KC?)

  • Richardson should be dead last.  The only saving grace with him is the Colts gave us our pick back.

    I would definitely not go that far, given that Gilbert did even worse. 

    I mean, even JFF  QBd the Browns to a couple of wins.   (he was 2-6.   I mean, 2d rounder Deshone Kizer was 0-15)

    Richardson was "eh" during his rookie season for the Browns.

    There's so many people on that list that would never come close to smelling "eh".

    Richardson smelled more like ass than anything because that's all he ever ran into.  Apparently, its the only kind of hole he could find.

    Richardson at least had one great moment.

    That looks good to me.  I would like to drop Njoku, but not sure who I would put in front of him.  I might put Peppers ahead of Danny.

    Yea, obviously there is some flexibility in that middle ground.  Neither of those guys were around here long enough really

    I guess I was just looking at what they did for the Browns.  In that case, maybe even JFF  would have been better.....for on field play, than Erving. JFF helped win a couple of games.   Maybe Erving is doing OK with KC...but I don't want to consider that.
