    Michael Vick is a poor man's RG3. RG3 is about 5 inches taller, 30 LBs bigger and a 10 times more polished passer in college than Vick ever was. Vick didn't become a decent passer until about what? 10 years of playing time

    How about never? In the ONE good passing year he had, he torched the worst secondaries in the league that year.

    Reggie Bush

    His career thus far has been lukewarm, considering he was a #2 overall pick. Breakout year coming w/ Cutler & co.

    Robert Griffin

    Why this guy gets dogged, I have no idea. Saying RG3 is a "great" NFL player before his first NFL start seems corny.

    Adrian Peterson

    Peterson is a premium NFL player in the prime of his career. Injury rehab is always is a question, but he should be fine.

    Tony Romo

    Romo is overhyped like every other Cowboy. Give the guy a break, he's an ok QB on a middling team, not "great".

    Chris Johnson

    I think this prediction came one year too late.

    Wes Walker

    I see no reason for Welker to slow down, he's only 31. Another 100 catch season should be a cinch.

    Terrel Owens

    No comment.

    Tony Gonzales

    I could go either way on this one. There's no way to erase the fact the guy is 36 years old. But he's a legend.

    Tom Brady

    Don't bet against Tom Brady. You will lose.

    AP is a wasted pick THIS year. Because he is his prime age-wise, he will be able to come back strong next year. Do NOT be the one to overdraft him this year. I keep smiling when I see guys draft him in the first two rounds.

    I take for granted that your knowledge of English is sufficient enough to understand what quotation marks around a word like great means. But with a Paultard, who knows. Maybe you think it has something to with the gold standard or GOP conspiracies to keep "real conservatives from getting convention delegates.

    Romo continues to put up good numbers despite poor offenseive talent around him, his recivers are always hurt, he made Nobody Laurant Robinson look like a probowler, the offensive line is horrid and the running game had 5 touchdowns last year and one was by Romo.

    Truth: People see what they want to see. Dallas is not a good team, the reason the even contend for playoff spots is because of Romo.

    Dude, do you remember the years they had Owens, Marion Barber in his prime leading a running game that was getting like 6 ypc, a strong O-line, Tank Johnson, Pac-Man, Terrence Newman his his prime, etc?

    They had all the talent in the world and he couldn't do jack. Now he just racks up yards because they don't run the ball. Cowboys might get last in the division this year now that the Redskins actually got a couple offensive players.
