Come 2012 I'll take my chances with these guysThe rules for a team of tomorrow are so vague. Should you pick the greatest high school senior in the land? The greatest college sophomore? I refuse to put Matt Simms on the team, even though -- who knows? -- Phil's youngest son might turn out to be a heck of an NFL player when his career at Louisville (where he's enrolling this year) ends. I ended up deciding to pick a player or two from college football, but only the ones who look like true can't-missers.
Here were my rules: No one who has turned 28 is eligible, because a 28-year-old will be 33 in 2012, and other than the prospect of Peyton Manning still being on top of his game at 36 that season, I just felt it would defeat the purpose of the list to include players older than 33. No player younger than one entering his fourth year of college eligibility was chosen, because too many things can happen (injury, diminution of talent) with a player who has two years or more to go before he even starts his pro career. And one other thing -- I'm playing a 3-4 on defense. I think there will be more 3-4 teams in 2012 than 4-3.
In short, I have no idea how right I'll be,
but these are my best guesses for the team of the year in 2012.OFFENSIVE BACKS
QB | Vince Young | Tennessee Titans I thought long and hard about JaMarcus Russell, because he's a much more efficient and accurate quarterback (right now) than Young. But I settled on the Tennessean because of how good he was as an NFL frosh running and throwing, and because he's such an electric player. And I figure his accuracy will improve in the next few seasons.DOH!!!
