AlNFL19 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 For the Patriots, QB Tom Brady TE Rob Gronkowski RT Marcus Cannon RG Shaq Mason SWR Julian Edelman ILB Dont'a Hightower CB Stephon Gilmore FS Devin McCourty SS Patrick Chung K Stephen Gostkowski Maybe some more guys I'm not thinking of, but I think these guys are all above average at their specific positions.

Ran some numbers, Gostkowski is certainly above average (at least last season), though I wouldn't say he's necessarily elite. % of FGA 1-39 yards -- 62.5% (League Average 49.14%) % of FGA 40+ yards -- 37.5% (League Average 50.86%) Accuracy 1-39 yards -- 100% (League Average 91.54%) Accuracy 40+ yards -- 80% (League Average 77.12%) So yes because Brady and co usually can drive further down the field he does get to take more easier chip shots, but that's not to say he can't make the longer ones.

He is so used to having an easy job on field goals that he has lost his nerve in pressure moments both during the regular and post season. His kickoffs are always above average in distance but that ability is less of an advantage now that the rules have changed. I agree Gostkowski above average but not greatly so.

Id definitely have Bulaga in there and would maybe add Linsley before Taylor though he's probably still around average himself. On defense id still put Clay in there, he's not great anymore as a stand alone edge rusher but he's easily an above average football player. Based off last season I'd think about adding Tramon Williams too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Vikings (11): QB Kirk Cousins, WR Stefon Diggs, WR Adam Thielen, Everson Griffen, Danielle Hunter, Linval Joseph, Sheldon Richardson, Anthony Barr, Eric Kendricks, Xavier Rhodes and Harrison Smith i dont think there is much debate or controversy with this list. Plus a few others who may be close to above average like Dalvin Cook, Kyle Rudolph, Riley Reiff, and Trae Waynes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Kirk Cousins Kyle Rudolph Stefon Diggs Adam Thielen Everson Griffen Danielle Hunter Linval Joseph Sheldon Richardson Anthony Barr Eric Kendricks Xavier Rhodes Harrison Smith That's for sure. We have no idea what will happen with Dalvin Cook. Riley Reiff and Trae Waynes might be above average. For what it's worth, I think CJ Ham can be an above average FB too!

BleedTheClock Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Browns: Tyrod Taylor, Carlos Hyde/Nick Chubb/Duke Johnson, Jarvis Landry, Josh Gordon, Kevin Zeitler, Joel Bitonio, Myles Garrett, Larry Ogunjobi, Jamie Collins, Mychal Kendricks, Denzel Ward (probably). That's quite a few considering their record last year. Tyrod Taylor might not be above average...he's probably close to average right now to be fair.

BroncoBruin Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 For the Broncos: Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Ron Leary, Matt Paradis, Derek Wolfe, Domata Pelo, Von Miller, Chris Harris Jr, Bradley Roby, Marquette King I expect Justin Simmons and Bradley Chubb to play their way onto this list.

Danger Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I don't think it's sensible to include Rookie's on this list at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of us were expecting much but he was probably our MVP last year considering the only thing Denver really did at a high level was stop the run. Dominated against Travis Frederick.

Dominated against Travis Frederick. Change of scenery probably did him good. He wasn't even stopping the run particularly well his last few years in Cincinnati. He still flashed every now and then, but he would still get pushed around. And he wasn't even drawing doubles consistently with Geno beside him.
