Casey Hampton as an OLB? 😆

Think Wilmore messed up and took one too many nose tackles. 😉 All kidding aside, but that's a hefty size mess up.

Can’t deny i accidentally drafted 1 too many DE and one too little LB. But it doesn’t matter with my size and strength, there’s zero way you’re getting ANY rushing yards on this team.

 

[WilmoreCat]

My team is full of depth and strength. I have arguably the 2-3 best QB of all time in Terry Bradshaw. The all time leading rusher in Emmith Smith. Good luck stopping his rushing. Then you have to go against the best wide receiver of all time in Jerry Rice, Davante Adams who is a top 2 receiver right now, and a HOF receiver in Fred Biletnikoff.

If you can somehow stop that then good luck stopping TE Shannon Sharpe. My O Line is led by the great Center of all time, Mike Webster. Along with him are all HOF in Richmond Webb, Gene Upshaw, Ron Mix, and Joe DeLamielleure.

My defense has the all time sack leader in a season in Michael Strahan, and two LOCKDOWN corners in Ty Law and Stephon Gilmore. Gino Marchetti, Junior Seau, Michael Strahan, Joe Schmidt, Casey Hampton are all HOF talent who will give the QB constant pressure.

Gerald McCoy and Carl Eller are two severely underrated DT who will give the O Line fits.

Donnie Shell and “The Assassin” Jack Tatum are both HARD hitters who will put the offense wondering on how they can possibly scored

My team has zero weakness and would absolutely dominate every single team they face.

 

[JHannibalSmith]

@WilmoreCat You could move Marchetti to OLB since he played at 6-4, 244. Then move Hampton to DT & Eller to DE. Good luck getting ANYTHING between the tackles against Hampton & McCoy.

I’m good with that

I'm going to think about this one a bit more. Wilmore has a great RB/WR duo with Jerry and Emmitt as well as a rushing trio of Strahan/Marchetti/Eller from the edge that I love and an excellent middle linebacker who gets lost in the shuffle a bit in Joe Schmidt who maybe gets less recognition than he deserves because of guys like Ray Lewis, Butkus, Lambert and others. Reading the posts after the initial lineup makes me like his team more since my first thought was Casey Hampton is definitely not an outside linebacker while Carl Eller was a defensive end, not a defensive tackle.

But I really like jw's squad as well. Jerry is the G.O.A.T., but Randy Moss is the most physically gifted and talented receiver of all-time. Michael Irvin is a fantastic #2 as a guy who had a little bit of swagger, but was also really tough being willing to go over the middle and he had the size to catch those jump balls in the end zone. Tim Brown is a player I like more than most since he consistently put up great stats on Raiders teams that had less than stellar QBs. Dan Fouts of the Air Coryell offense will love airing it out to those guys. Love his secondary as well as Mel Hein at center and Chuck Bednarik as one of his linebackers. Hein and Bednarik were true 60 minute players. His D-Line isn't as good as Wilmore's, but it's not chopped liver. Lee Roy Selmon is someone former GM Ron Wolf called Lee Roy Selmon the best player he's been around, and Wolf got Reggie White to Green Bay. Doug Atkins was a freak, someone George Halas praised as the best defensive end his teams played against.

And I realize I just did a lot of jw's job for him
I think Wilmore likely wins, and I may vote for him as well, but I'm going to think about this one some more like I said earlier.

All I should need to say is that I have 22 HOF’s on the team.

Hmm...Interesting point, buuuuut someone could have active or recently retired players that are much better than many hall of famers. I mean Troy Aikman & Warren Moon are in the hall but Tom Brady & Peyton Manning aren’t. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You are correct and they will be but their not there yet.

 

[WilmoreCat]

Who can stop Jerry Rice, Shannon Sharpe, Terry Bradshaw, and Emmit Smith? Not to mention Fred Biletnikoff and Davante Adams aren’t too shabby either. I have 20-22 HOF as well.

 

[WilmoreCat]

And how are you going to get any rushing room with Casey Hampton, Gerald McCoy, Carl Eller, Marchetti down low? Ty Law and Gilmore are known to lock up every single player they go against. My offensive is unstoppable and my defense will give you zero time to throw with many pass rushers and my rushing defense is perfect.

Law and Gilmore isn’t locking up Moss and Irvin.

Who’s stopping Rice and Adams?

 

[jwcat30]

You’re the one that said you had 2 lockdown corners. I just responded that they aren’t locking Moss and Irvin.

But my 22 are in the Hall already.

 

[WilmoreCat]

I think Law could lock up Irvin Easily and Gilmore would do fine on Moss. Moss is going to get his maybe but that’s about it.

 

[WilmoreCat]

But my 22 are in the Hall already.

I have many recent players who have just retired who will be inducted in the hall of fame already. My quarterback has won 4 super bowls and my team is VERY SB experienced and has a lot of talent. Your QB has zero super bowls.

But he is a gun slinger that would be able to us Moss, Irvin, Brown and Newsome all day long.

My D Line would give your O Line fits. My offense is completely unstoppable each drive and there’s no way you could stop it. Emmitt Smith with this O Line would get 5-6 yards a carry each time.

 

[jwcat30]

You guys totally underestimate my team. I feel that I would score every possession. I also believe that my defense would be able to get at least one stop and that would win the game.

 

[WilmoreCat]

Good game ! @jwcat30

I love wilmore, went to elementary school there bac in the day

 

[UKRuppster]

I guess I didn't do quite a good enough sell job for jw 😜
But congrats Wilmore. These aren't easy votes to make when the teams are so loaded.

All good as long as you sell my team next round.😂

Lol I will if you want me to since I kinda feel like I owe you now after trying to sell jw's team this round. Although jw lost despite my sell job, so maybe my sell job wouldn't help you lmao
