Actually I think the whole talent thing is overrated. Marion is not that good anymore and blows assignments every game, cannot tackle that well either. Madison is no more a top 5 CB. Top 10 just barely. Surtain ya he is a top 3 corner.
Knight the scheme sucks for him, he should be used like Rodney.
Seau makes plays, but gives up some as well. Greenwood is not on the field that much and is Seau's polar opposite. Thomas is Thomas, but gets owned by some RBs.
Our two DTs are good run stuffers still and get more pressure than you think. The DEs on this team are quite good. The DL is fantastic, but the secondary is overrated and the LBs are good but not great.
The offensive side of the ball the right side of the OL is consistanly mediocre. Ruddy gets pushed around the field all the time. Nails was hurt, he will be back next year. Smith was not supposed to be starting but will get much better.
At TE there is a good amount of talent. At FB Konrad has a dissapointing injury filled year. At RB Ricky is still a top RB, just did not have a good year and was not as healthy as you think. WR Chambers, Chambers, Chambers. Let's not even talk about QB.
That ain't that much talent if you look at another good team like the Broncos.
They have Plummer, Portis, underrated FB Mike Anderson, Shannon leading all TEs sharpe, solid Carswell, the best run blocking group in the league on the OL, Lelie, Smith. That's just O.
On D they have ridiculously fast underrated linebackers in Mobley, Wilson, and Gold backed by rookie Terry Pierce. They have Pryce and Berry not quite as good as our DEs but still good. At both DT spots they are solid, but not quite as good as Miami run blocking wise. I would say their secondary is not great but they get the job done. Walls is a good CB, Herndon is solid. Safeties they are about the same level as us.
They have alot more talent than Miami, because Miami's drafts have been very poor last few years.
