This is just for fun. I saw this on some other NFL forums and thought I should post it here. I would take Fred Taylor. He is the best halfback in the league in my opinion.

I will have to think on that. I really like Peppers from Carolina and would he add to our pass rush or what. I really like Peppers, so that is my answer

Hmmm.... It'd probably come down to either LaDainian Tomlinson, Jason Taylor, or Sam Adams. Adams might not be the best DT in the league, but he can clog up the middle like no other, and that's what we need right now.

Besides, you've seen the commercials. Sam Adams: Always a good decision. :beer:

I got a tie between LT and Jason Taylor.

We need a pass rush!

I'd take Simeon Rice as our DE.

It was a toss up between Jason Taylor and Rice (Who have pretty similar stats and ages)...but I choose Rice since he has great playoff experience.

No offence to the ram, but McNair is the best damn QB in this league.

Micheal Vick..no doubt about it.

I think I would have to go with LT... that would round out our offense for sure!

who at left tackle? we have samuels and jansen, so i say that we need a guard more. ruben brown has to be the best guard in the league. i change my pick to brown

I think he means Ladanien Tomlinson whose initials are L.T.

I would pick Ed Reed. He could be one of the best Free Safeties in the league and he makes such big plays.

Him or maybe Julius Peppers or Chris Hovan.

thanks for clearing that up. i am kinda slow:D

and i forgot about ed reed. remember when he returned that missed fg for a touchdown?

i would like to have roy williams as well. damn, i wish i had not limited it to one pick and said that if players were stocks, who would you buy and who would you sell.

Julius Peppers. He will be a dominant DE for the next 10 years and God willing, with a healthy career, threaten the soon to be sack record of Bruce Smith.

Fred Taylor IS the best hb in the league... when he is on the field by himself!

I'm sorry but the guy gets hurt if someone sneezes too close to him. I think he is hurt again this camp already.

Any player???? that is a tough question! I guess I agree with those who picked Peppers.

No offense to Ram and if I could pick one player that would help the skins to the super bowl- it would be simple-Peyton Manning. Could you imagine him with the skins o-line and receiving core?

I would have to go DE, by importance of the position and need.

So I would agree with either Taylor or Peppers.

Taylor for his consistency on being the best DE in the league.

Peppers for being young and having endless potiental.

I'd agree that Tomlinson would be a great one to have. He or Clinton Portis or a two years ago Edge would be great. So a top RB is my pick.

Also, Ray Lewis (switching to a 3-4) wouldn't let our D give up more than 20 pts for a whole damned season.

Me too!!! This was an easy choice for me (nothing against Ramsey).

Michael Vick. We'd be set for years.

Glad to see finally some one agrees with me this is the most exciting player in football right now.

WARREN SAPP!

We the skins need DL help, and he would be just what we needed. I do think we could use an upgrade at DE, but not like what we need at DL.
I'd even take a proven QB, like Favre or Manning over a DE.

Sorry, while Fred Taylor has LOTS of talent, he's not better than Faulk and Holmes. Alexander, Williams, McAllister, LT, Henry and Portis are all better as well.

I'd have to go with Sapp.He just simply would'nt allow his team mates to slack off and besides if we knew shuler was a flop we could have had him in 94.Atleast i think thats the draft he came out in.

After last weekend, I would have to say Sapp!

I'd go with Vick (not dissing Ram here) or Ray Lewis. Lewis would motivate the entire team, not just the defense.

Vick is not a just a game breaker..he is a game changer....where he goes so does his team.

That's what I think, Tex. Look elsewhere on that 2002 Falcons team and it is pretty difficult to see how they not only made the playoffs, but also crushed Green Bay in the first round of the playoffs. [First home loss in Packers history.] So how did they do it? Two words: Michael Vick.

OK then Hell,................ PUT Michael Vick at Defensive Tackle ..... I don't care. That position needs to be addressed :banghead: :banghead:
