NFC South: Best Skills Position Players in the NFL?

QB: Cam, Brees, Ryan, Freeman

RB: Stew, DWill, Sproles, Ingram, Turner, Richardson?

WR: Smitty, Coltson, Roddy, Julio, VJax

TE: Oslen, Graham, Gonzalez, Winslow

No way there is another division that touches that across the board, if the Bucs draft Richardson, every team will have at least one elite level talent at each of the skills positions.

I wouldn't call Sproles, Ingram, Olsen, or Freeman "elite."

Sproles is not an elite running back, but one of the best change-of-pace guys in the game. Ingram may get there, but right now heck no. Freeman took a step back last year. And Olsen is very good, but not elite.

I don't really consider the TE a skill position really, but that 4 is probably the best set of 4 in the league.

No, Sproles isn't an elite "running back" but he is without a doubt an elite NFL player, who happens to be a RB, so it counts.

But even with those and Freeman as the 4th QB, I don't think there is a better set of players within one division in the league.

QB wise, you're right. You stack ours vs any division we win. RB I would go with the AFC South. WR probably NFC East with D-Jack, Cruz, Nicks, Austin, Bryant, and Maclin. Tight End its close on that one. I would argue the NFC South & AFC East are arguably the best. With Gronk, Hernandez, Keller (good TE on a shitty QBed team), and Fasano.

    • And really, it should be 4 reasons with the last one being that there were ZERO other offensive weapons on that team in 2024, opposing defenses only had to worry about one player all year long and they constantly double and triple teamed him right off the snap all season.  In 2023, we still had Jacob Cowing who had 90 catches that year and was drafted by the 49ers last year, so teams couldn't just send everyone after T-Mac on every passing down.
    • I wonder if the Hornets view Kon and McNeeley more as forwards and plan to ship off Green/Okogie/Smith for center help. I hope they don’t plan to ship off Sexton as I like what he brings to the team. (2) G - Ball, Mann, Simpson (two-way) (3) G - Sexton, Dinwiddie, Connaughton (3) F - Miller, Knueppel, McNeeley, James (two-way) (3) F - Bridges, Williams, Salaun (3) C - Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Plumlee
    • 3 main reasons he was better in 2023 and none of them concern me for his NFL prospects 1. Totally new coaching staff that was a massive downgrade and had god awful play calling and designs, the entire fan base was ready to run the coaching staff out of town a month into their first season and the play caller ended up getting changed because it was so bad. 2. Along with the staff downgrade, his QB played significantly worse after being the Pac 12 Freshman of the Year in 2023.  Constantly missed T-Mac when he was wide open, lost out on a number of TDs and a good amount of yardage, half the time T-Mac still almost made miraculous catches on the bad passes too. 3. He hurt his ankle over the summer and missed all of fall camp only to return to practice a few days before the season started and I think he had to deal with it all season long and was slightly limping at times mid season too, but kept fighting through it to still be a 1st team All American.
