My starting roster Murrell's team QB - Peyton Manning - Indianapolis Colts 4,000 yards consistently. The best QB in the league...Nuff said HB - Willie Parker - Pittsburgh Steelers Parker has developed into one of the top backs in the league. Needs to work a little on his fumbling. He'll run great behind my OL. FB - Jameel Cook - Houston Texans A very nice lead blocker WR - Donald Driver - Green Bay Packers Getting up there in age a bit, but still a lethal target. Manning will be licking his chops when he is back to pass. TE - Chris Baker - New York Jets A very underrated TE...even among the fans of his team. LT - Walter Jones - Seattle Seahawks Best LT in the league. He will be responsible for Manning's blindside...I'm sure Manning is sleeping well at night. LG - Steve Hutchinson - Minnesota Vikings Hutchinson and Jones make up the best Left side of the line in the league....again. A dominating run blocker. C - Shaun O'Hara - New York Giants A very solid center. Has very few limitations. RG - Kynan Forney - Atlanta Falcons One of the most underrated linemen in the league. A very stout run blocker RT - Jason Spitz - Green Bay Packers An up and coming guy. Had a solid rookie season in 2006. With a year under his belt 2007 should be even better. WR - TJ Houshmandzadeh - Cincinnati Bengals Houshmanzadeh will have to play 2nd fiddle to another WR yet again. But he will be a favorite target of Peyton Manning's. Good luck to the opposing secondary. DE - Leonard Little - St. Louis Rams A little long in the tooth, but Little can still get after a QB. DT - Shaun Rogers - Detroit Lions A great run stopper who can also get up field on passing plays. Needs to rebound from an injury that shortened his 2006 season DT - Pat Williams - Minnesota Vikings I can't imagine many people who are going to be successful trying to run up the middle on Williams and Rogers. A little older now, but should still play at a high level. DE - Andre Carter - Washington Redskins led the Redskins with 6 sacks in 2006. Has the ability to rush the passer. Also is solid against the run. ROLB - Keith Brooking - Atlanta Falcons All over the field is the best way to describe how Brooking plays. Has a few solid years left in him. MLB - Will Witherspoon - St. Louis Rams A very solid MLB. Will be able to roam freely with the studs on the line. LOLB - David Thornton - Tennessee Titans While Thornton is a great OLB he is my one mistake during the draft. Brooking will have to take over the Strong side. I can't have two guys lined up on the weak side. CB - Chris McAlister - Baltimore Ravens One of the top CB's in the league. I love his physical play. FS - John Lynch - Denver Broncos A veteran leader, Lynch will captain my entire team. SS - Antoine Bethea - Indianapolis Colts A young player with a ton of upside. Needed to infuse some youth into this team CB - Jonathan Joseph - Cincinnati Bengals A rookie in 2006 did not record one INT during the year. He was however towards the top in pass deflections. I expect great things from him in 2007. K - Matt Stover - Baltimore Ravens One of the most underrated Kickers in the league today. P - Ryan Plackemeier - Seattle Seahawks I needed a punter
I like how Murrell's team is built,it's going to be hard to run up the middle against them with Rodgers and Williams absorbing blockers,giving Witherspoon lots of space to play.On offense he managed to get the best QB in the game lots of weapons and a lot of time to throw.
