Good Pick.

I also thought about Peyton, but then decided to pick LT and create a Smash Mouth type of team.

Timmy D on the clock starting @ 6:35 PM.

Man, I can't find the time right now to look over that site to see how they rank...

the 1942 bears defense????

1942???

this should be regulated to just the Super Bowl era...

can you even name one player on that defense?

Illini obviously has an understanding of what scores the highest on this site...it is an advantage that probably ruined my #1 overall pick as I am sure there were 100 different options better than 07 Moss...

a quick run down of how that site ranks should have been posted in here...

[~primetime~]

just looked up some of the players on that bears defense...

http://www.pro-football-reference.co...s/chi/1942.htm

Sid Luckman...he was the Bears star DB

guess what Sid also played for the Bears?...he was thier QB

Danny Fortmann was a LB...as well as a guard

George Wilson was their DE...he weighed in at 199 lbs...(Mario Williams is 295)

ect

ect

ect


WHACK

Yeah I'm just going by the site, not gona lie.

[Jailblazers7]

Yeah that is pretty stupid if they are rated the best defense. Oh well I don't care I'd rather draft the defense I want that's rated lower.

[IlliniFan]

According to the site they only allowed 1.8 yds per carry, 7.6 pts per game, 39% completion, and only 154.4 total yards per game.

Probably because the passing game was non-existent back then lol. Idk we will just have to see how it plays out in the simulations. I'm not too worried about it I just wanna build a sweet team.

[AirGauge23]

So we're gonna pick entire defenses? It won't be individual players?

[Jackass18]

Their center had 8 interceptions that year. I wonder how it all correlates. That defense would get smashed in this era.

Yeah, I'm not too concerned about winning. I just wanna build a team and see how it pans out. Maybe after this one is done, we can get a Super Bowl era one or something.

These ratings do look pretty whack though.

I couldn't find it.

[pete's montreux]

Yeah I didn't even know the NFL was around in 1942.

[pete's montreux]

Oh yeah, try not to name drop. Someone already just listed like 6 QB's.
