What team had the best offseason ever and lived up to the hype?

As the title suggests, its a great offseason AND it paid off in the end. I want to see who did it best.

This eliminates all dark horse teams, and teams like the "Dream Team" Eagles of like 2013 and Browns of last season who had strong offseasons but stunk when it mattered.

Who did it best?

1994 49ers

  • Deion Sanders
    • Best corner in the game
  • Ken Norton Jr
    • 1993 pro bowl LB and SB Champ
  • Rickey Jackson
    • 6x pro bowl LB including 1992 and 1993
  • Bart Oates
    • 3x pro bowl C including 1993
  • Gary Plummer
    •  solid vet MLB

They went 13-2 before a meaningless MNF game after Dallas lost on Sunday to give them the bye

  • Only lost to Joe Montana and that wacky 40-8ers game vs Philly

They won their playoff games by 29, 10, and 23 points.

They got revenge on Dallas.

It ended up like this:

This one did not get the hype but in retrospect it was HUGE:  The 2017 Eagles

  • Nick Foles
  • Alshon Jeffrey
  • Torrey Smith
  • Patrick Robinson
  • Chris Long
  • LeGarrette Blount
  • Timmy Jernigan
  • Corey Clement (UFA)
  • Derek Barnett (1st round pick) (in an otherwise ugly draft)
  • Corey Graham
  • Ronald Darby

10 of their 11 playoff TDs came from the new players.

The Robinson pick-6 was caused by Chris Long hitting Case Keenum

  • Long also recovered a Keenum fumble caused by Barnett

The Brandon Graham sack fumble was picked up by Derek Barnett
