Top 10 at each position this year
 

Just for fun...Im leaving players like Revis who missed the majority off the season off, but for the record I still believe he is the best corner in the game. You can take it how you want, Im focusing on who had the best 2012 season and who played the best when it really counted, but Im also taking into account player history, who I believe to be the best players, and what players meant to their teams.

I'm laughing at Brees in the 10 slot.

This is so horrible typical reason for not posting in here ever

Kaepernick 4th. Ok.

1. Kaepernick is not a top 5 qb.

2. Sam Shields was a top 10 CB last year.

3. Kendell Reyes(Chargers) had a solid rookie year and should be in the top 10 or borderline of the top 10

Why is JJ Watt DE but Justin Smith DT?

To be fair if you converted both of them into a 43 right now that's where they would probably play. Watt can honestly play both at a high level regardless.

Mario Williams in the top 10 for DEs? Really?

Also, Joe Flacco is most definitely NOT a top-5 QB. He's definitely behind Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, and I'd probably take Matt Ryan and Roethlisberger over him as well.Remember: just because a QB wins a Super Bowl does not suddenly make him much better than he was in the regular season. The playoffs are more about luck and team effort than the QB.

Other than that, not a bad list. Pretty accurate representation of how these players played in 2012.

This entire pro football section of this website needs to burn to the ground.

Posluszny ahead of Bobby Wagner is criminal grounds.

No Eric Weddle ?

ok.

Mike Pouncey is awesome. That is all.

Lol so now all of a sudden Larry Fitzgerald isn't a top 10 wideout??

BWAHAHAHA!!!

CJ Spiller.....its like he is running on the wings of an angel ...that is super charged...

I'll predict the top 5 scorers in Fantasy Football this year.

Some of these guys obviously rank higher due to rushing yards and TD's.

1. RG3
2. Kaepernick
3. Arod
4. Brady
5. Wilson
Brees, Newton, Peyton, and Ryan are obviously close in a stacked QB league.

PPR
1. Foster
2. Rice
3. AD
4. MJD
5. Spiller
Shady, Lynch, Charles, Forte, McFadden on the cusp.

1. Megatron
2. AJ Green
3. Andre Johnson
4. BMarsh
5. Pierre Garçon (my top 5 sleeper)
Welker, Wayne, Cruz, Nicks, Steve Smith, White, and Jones on the cusp.

1. Gronk
2. Graham
3. Witten
4. Tony G (if he plays)
5. Hernandez
Sleeper: Rudolph

1. Walsh
2. Forbath
3. Legatron
4. Crosby
5. Akers

1. Bears
2. Texans
3. Balt
4. Pitt
5. Denver

Picking top 10's next year in real football is tough but here is my 1 position all pro team.

QB: Brady
RB: AD
WR: Megatron
TE: Gronk
OT: Trent Williams
OG: Jahri Evans
C: Mangold

CB: Sherman
S: Polamalu
DE: Watt
DT: Wilfork
OLB: Von Miller
ILB: Willis

I remember when this forum was good.

Marcell Dareus at #9? LOL! Goldson over Byrd? Kap in the Top 4? Listicles suck but this suuuuucks!

Not sure if troll or serious...

We got a problem here bro?

uhhhh revis?

go back read the first words...just for fun...not like I put some crazy amount of thought into or its something at all fair, just who played the best this year...and for silly **** like Flacco however high i put him, he went on one of the best SB runs for a QB Ive ever witnessed, and that puts him above Peyton, the guy he beat in the playoffs. Peyton got a two return touchdowns cushion and still got outdueled by Flacco, how can I say Peyton had the better year? Peyton played great all year, but look at the Broncos schedule, he was piling it up on a lot of bad teams during that win streak. When it counted, Flacco outplayed him.


And obviously I made some silly mistakes, like I left Larry Fitzgerald off, or whatever interior lineman that I put on there that was battling injuries and I didnt realize. You guys can go ahead and rip it apart but it aint nothin serious just a chance to think about who was the best this year and that its not always the best players who are the best every year.

I don't know about 2012, but in general...
