Offense, even though the voting is done.
Obviously I have familiarity with Sean Payton as OC and Drew Brees at QB. Wasn’t originally my intention, but worked out that way. They put up a lot of the best offensive numbers in NFL history, and would get more press for it if the Saints didn’t have such awful defenses for the middle of the 2010’s. Probably underrated is Brees’ comeback ability - 36 (+2 playoff) 4th quarter comebacks, 53 (+3) game-winning drives, and should’ve been more considering how many others the defense immediately blew (including at least 2 playoff games). Of course they did manage to win Super Bowl 44.
At no point in during their time together did they have anything close to the running back room. To the degree that Emmitt Smith’s all-time rushing record wasn’t late-career stat padding, he was one of the NFL’s dominant forces on offense in the 90’s. I would’ve been comfortable giving him the same fullback, but Mike Alstott is more accomplished at the position with better ability to be a straight-ahead runner, as he was when he was the Dungy-Gruden Buccaneers best offense player. Things get a lot more fun where I can use Marshall Faulk as either a tailback or motioned receiver. Brees and Payton love using the screen game, and with the way Faulk changed the position when he was on the Rams, is more than the perfect complement. I can also get him on the outside on quick screens and in mesh concepts. We can be run-heavy or pass-happy any time we need to. For good measure, Darren Sproles as a third tailback, accomplished 6th AT all-purpose yards, at the very least is a Hall of Very Good-er and familiar with QB/OC. To the degree that that is worth in this format, it should raise his floor.
Receivers - one of them is Jerry Rice, there’s not much to say, he is the best receiver in NFL history and will never have to line up against the best corner in history other than in practice. He has the most touchdowns, won Super Bowls, runs any route, catches any ball, runs with the ball and is smarter than everyone too. Opposite him is Davante Adams, when you count his ongoing numbers, reads a lot like a Rice-lite in terms of yardage and touchdowns, but he can handle getting a bit more physical and with today’s athleticism, has larger catch radius. Tommy McDonald, from the late 50’s, into the 60’s, perhaps was the league’s best wide receiver for the Eagles, earning him a late hall of fame nod.
Tight End - I drafted both my guys late, and I think both are under the radar guys. Charlie Sanders, despite playing for the Lions, managed 7 Pro Bowls and HOF recognition despite a career where he only got to play in 1 playoff game, which has valid claim to being the worst playoff game in league history. The Lions never had a quarterback, that won’t be a problem here, we’ll get to utilize his full skill set as an all around tight end. Keith Jackson offsets that as a tight end who only ever played with good quarterbacks, who liked to find him in the end zone often, and got him to 5 more pro bowls, and both will be utilized in featured in 12-formation passing sets.
Offensive line - Walter Jones, first ballot hall of famer. 9 pro bowls is as many as holding penalties be took in his career. 23 sacks allowed is less than 2 per season. Also served to revitalize Ricky Watters’ career and blocked for Shaun Alexander as well. John Madden (our coach) recognized him as the best player in the league, at any position in 2004, (Sporting News backed this up on a list published in 2006). Mike Holmgren said he was the best offensive player he ever coached. Lane Johnson is opposite him on the right side, you just have to look at the Eagles record over the years with and without him. 79-47-1, 13-22 without, reliably among the best tackles today, playing for a lot of different styles of coaching and QB’s with success. On the interior, Mike Munchak - 9 more pro bowls, only 5 guards have more. Jahri Evans, Northeast High School’s own, is a familiar face in the huddle as a stalwart for the same Saints Golden Era teams. And Maurkice Pouncey - only a season long injury prevented him from being a pro bowler in literally every season he played. The Steelers, as we know, long history of franchise centers.

Front Seven:
Got a bit of a late start building this out. The big thing I only drafted one true off-ball linebacker. Although I have Von Miller who can play there as my pass rushers rotate in and out. Cam Jordan, Carl Eller as down linemen of the left. Miller and Jared Allen come off the right side. Miller and Jordan can switch. On the interior, Cortez Kennedy and Fletcher Cox as accomplished 3-down linemen, and backfield hellraisers. Cox can live in your backfield. Bill George able to take snaps there or come in for goal line.
I’m counting on exotic looks from my linebackers to confuse opposing offenses. I can drop off Jack Lambert into Tampa 2 when I run 4-3 or even as a 3-3-5 or 5-2, because I can line up Bill George over the center and drop him off into the second level. Sometimes even with George as the MIKE given he’s really the godfather of the 4-3 middle linebacker. He’s really the key here, as I drafted him because his value was just too good. I can move around whoever I have to to get different looks. Seth Joyner, I list him at SAM, but he will get time at WILL when Lambert both George play off and Miller either blitzes.
My secondary - What did they say? 2/3 of the world is covered by water and the other third is covered by Mel Blount? The best corner of all time going to shut down his side. The league changed rules because he was great at mugging receivers downfield, but that didn’t matter. Yale Lary at free safety makes it hard to be beaten deep, maybe even cheat in Cover 1.
Jalen Ramsey will talk shit with the best of them, but he’ll get the freedom to ball hawk with QB’s throwing at him, and Darren Woodson can set a trap. Malcolm Jenkins isn’t a traditional corner, but he can play up in safety or cover in nickel and is also very good on special teams. Ramsey has excellent tacklers behind him, so he will be aggressive forcing turnovers.
Also, Phil Bengtsen will turn everyone who isn’t a Hall of Famer into one based on his history. 1 postseason loss ever as coordinator.
