Allstarjim Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 ...who would it be? For me it'd probably be Demarcus Ware; the only opponent I really worry about facing. I like it. I'm going to the offensive side, though. Although he's way overhyped right now, I'm saying Larry Fitzgerald. But I was torn between him and Andre Johnson.

GorillaNJ Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 The Fitz, we wouldnt have to worry about our #1 WR for years. That was who first came to mind for me... fills a need and is a great player... Polamalu would be another player I would love to see in Giants blue... but Saftey is not a glaring need on this team.

Treehugger Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Can you imagine how nasty Ware would be blitzing between Osi at RE and Tuck at DT? There's your "Unstoppable" ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGBLUE01 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Brian Urlacher. Think how sick our LB's would be, and how great our overall D would become.With Eli, the run game and our young receivers, we'd be lethal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were to go defense, that's who I'd take. He's a touchdown maker for the defense! Kenny P and Ed Reed in the same defensive backfield? Fuggedaboutit!

Not a lot of thinking involved here Eli's big Brother, or Tom Brady.........no disrepect to Eli but Eli is an up and down QB with questionable footwork and accuracy If on the Defense Shawn Merriman (if he's healthy) to the guy who picked Urlacher.........Urlacher has a chronic arthritic back........sorry too late ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I'd have to say Merriman. LB is the one spot on the team where we don't really have anybody that strikes fear into the heart of the opponent... though WR is a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishgutmartyr Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 What has Merriman done since he got busted for steroids, though? If I wanted a WR, I'd poach Fitz as well. Might even steal another Card, Carlos Dansby--young, up and coming, and already a fine LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because I watch him more often, I do not take in many Ravens games but if the Steelers are on I normally watch them. For my money, polamalu is one of the smarter players in the game, he is always in the correct position and by the ball, match him up with the Gmen pass rush and you have a recipe for a lot of INTs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 ed reed, polamalu, andre johnson, larry fitz, patrick willis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 ed reed, polamalu, andre johnson, larry fitz, patrick willis Yes all great choices. What's great is nobody wants a QB (except Jack), a RB, a DE, a DT, a CB, or a OL, because we are so loaded. I'm surprised Jack didn't say John Carney, though.

fishgutmartyr Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 OH Yeah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carlos Dansby is way better than Ben, Peyton, Demarcus, or Shawn Are you on Drugs??????? Again--WHAT HAS MERRIMAN DONE SINCE HE WAS BUSTED WITH STEROIDS? It's a legit question. Here's part of the answer--spent 2008 on IR because of a fucked-up knee. You can grab any player in the league, and you want someone that hasn't played a down since having reconstructive knee surgery? I wasn't attacking anyone, just curious why you and Sephiroth would pick him. In 2007, he had 68 tackles, so I don't know if he is just a one-trick pony. We have enough pass-rushers, we need LBs that can handle the short passes to RBs and TEs. We don't need a QB--and I didn't mention those guys at all. But since your ok with attacking me, it would be fucking stupid to get a second franchise QB, since it doesn't really improve the team. Especially Peyton, who plays most of his games indoors, and could very well have the same problems in the Meadowlands as his brother does. I would prefer Fitzgerald more than anyone else--thought I made that clear. I wouldn't mind grabbing Dansby, because like I said, he's young, healthy, and is already showing to be a solid linebacker. I wouldn't have a problem with Ware, either, other than he's a 3-4 linebacker, and I don't know how he'd do in our defense. If he could handle our MLB, I'd be fine with him as well.

Your gong to #1 on a VERY VERY short resume...........but who knows, in the long run you may come up aces I'm trying to think of this like I had to get a FA with money to burn. How do I improve the team as it's already set up? That means a young guy beginning his peak, that is already playing a similar scheme as we do. Or a position that doesn't rely as heavily on scheme. So with defenders you have to be really careful. That's why I'd prefer Fitz. Obviously, the guy can help us immediately. But deep down I'd love to improve the LBs, particularly MLB, but with a guy that plays the position, not an ILB that might succeed. Maybe Barrett Ruud.

Sephiroth Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I thought Merriman's steroids charge was of the "I took X, Y, and Z supplement and the A, B, and C parts of it weren't listed on the label" variety. If that's not the case, I'd take Ware instead. I don't like cheaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
