The Ultimate Team

[DaveThePanther2008]

Since we have beat just about every topic to death I thought it might be fun to do something different.

With the next game on tap the HOF game I thought it might be different to pick your ultimate team.

Here's your criteria 

Offense

2 Tackles,2 Guards, 1 Center, 2 Tight Ends, 3 WRs 2, RB, 1 QB

Defensive

2 Tackles, 2 DE, 4 LBs, 2 CB, 2 Safeties

Special Teams 1 punter, 1 Kicker, 1 KR  (No long Snapper needed)

They don't have to be HOFer at this moment but future ones or someone you think was overlooked or they can be current players. I've listed the team that drafted them.   Here's a link to refresh your memory.  Hall of Famers by Position | Pro Football Hall of Fame Official Site (profootballhof.com)

Here's mine.   I tried to sprinkle some old-timers in mine but would probably stand up to anyone's list.

Offense

T - Orlando Pace Rams, Anthony Munoz Bengals

G - Big John Hannah Patriots, Bruce Matthews - Oilers/Titans

C. Mick Tinglehoff - Vikings

WR, Jerry Rice 49ers, Steve Smith Panthers, Randy Moss Minnesota

TE. Travis Kelce Chiefs, Tony Gonzales Chiefs

RB Earl Campbell Oilers, Barry Sanders Lions

QB Johnny Unitas Baltimore Colts

Defense

DT - John Randle Vikings, Warren Sapp Bucs

DE - Gino Marchetti - Baltimore Colts, Michael Strahan Giants

LB - Luke Kuechly Panthers, Ray Nitschke Packers, Lawrence Taylor Giants, Kevin Greene Steelers (Drafted by Ram but primary played DE with them)

CB - Deion Sanders Falcons, Darrell Green Redskins

S - Ronnie Lott 49ers, Ed Reed Ravens

Special Teams

P - Reggie Roby Dolphins

K. Adam Vinatieri Patriots

KR/PR Devin Hester Bears

I choose Unitas because he would have been a beast in this pass happy era.   Unitas had most of the passing records until they made it easy to pass.

Calvin Johnson needs to be on the list... probably in place of SS... 

I would replace Strahan with Peppers.

Hard to argue with any of these players most are HOFers or soon to be HOFers.

Make your list.

Nice,

Like I said it's hard to argue any of these players.  Just more of a person preference.

I thought about Troy Palamalu at safety as well.

If you don't pick Justin Tucker as your Kicker then we ain't homies.
