I don't understand why PT is ranked so low; I was kind of in agreement so far with their rankings!

Ahead of him should be: (in no particular order)
Brees
Kasay
Coleston
Sproles
Greer
Moore
Vilma
Smith
Gallet

Thats 9.. I battle who should be ranked higher... The RB or the lineman who blocks and gives him place to run.

I see PT at 10

I also do not know if Lofton is in this list.... I think PT's ranking gets diluted because of our stable of very good RB's.

No liking Kasey in the top 10.

Here's my list

Brees
Evans
Colston
Greer
Graham
Sproles
Grubbs
Bunkley
P. Thomas
Lofton (or Vilma)

Harper
Jenkins
Robinson
Smith
Bushrod
Ingram
Moore
Ellis
Jordan
Henderson

Strief
Kasay
Patrick
Wilson (likely to catapult up the list if he develops as expected)
de la Puente
Ivory
Hawthorne
McBride
Galette
Hicks

It is difficult to rank players so close in overall talent. I could do this tommorrow and probably have a much different list.

Not sure how in the hell I missed graham.... Close in talent is difficult to rank and so is a range of positions.... That gets very subjective on weather the person doing the ranking favors defense or offense after QB.

Out of 22 starters I can't see PT ranking anywhere but the top 7. Which 7? It's too hard to decide un til TC gets here.
