"Perfect" NFL Roster

Recommended Posts

I ran across this article where Bill Barnwell of ESPN builds the "perfect" NFL Roster.

http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/20296921/bill-barnwell-builds-perfect-nfl-roster-salary-cap-2017

You will never guess who the Carolina players are considering one is destined for the practice squad:

Alex Armah and Taylor Moton.

 

Here are some notes from the methodology:

Quote

1. Team restraints. We'll need to find at least one player -- but no more than three players -- from each of the 32 NFL teams.

3. Rookies! Our team will have seven rookies, with one player taken from each round of this year's draft. The remaining 22 players will have to be veterans who are not on their first contract.

They could have taken up to three players from our team. I guess on the plus side, we drafted well considering the players they took from us uses 2 of their 7 rookie spots.

The article passed on some better players to find value and depth. Passing on Luke at 12 mil a year and opting for Deion Jones at 1.4 mil is similar to themn taking Odell over Julio and AB

Correct. I should have mentioned it in the original post, but this was working with the salary cap. It still broke my heart that Luke wasn't on there.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
