International Man of Mystery
I'm struggling with the DE position. I have a hard time picking a specialist like Randy Gregory or Eric Martin because both were mainly pass rushers but struggled against the run. I went with Potter and Allen since they were solid at everything a DE should do.
It may be blasphemous not picking Randy but I didn't.
Love these threads, Redux.
I don't think it's blasphemous at all, and in fact I had the same quandary about Gregory. Add in his... we'll call them "durability issues" which kept him off the field quite a bit, and there are some serious questions about his career here. Certainly Gregory, when healthy & not dealing with "issues" was a tremendous force, but how many games did we get that from him?
I also thought about picking Pierre Allen, specifically due to his first year where it seemed he was everywhere, doing everything. After that, though, he seemed to regress.
