What backups on your team would start on other teams around the league?

For the Bucs, the only guy I can think of is whoever loses the Doug Martin/LeGarrette Blount battle for starting RB.

Hasselbeck or Locker, whoever is the backup this year, would start on a few teams in the league.

If reports are right about Zach Brown having a shot at starting over Will Witherspoon, Witherspoon would be one...but I can't see Brown beating him out.

Short of them, though, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. Karl Klug and Dave Ball might would start on a team who were really weak at the positions, but they work better as rotation players.

I don't think the "loser" of the Martin/Blount battle is much of a backup, I expect a shared role with Martin being more relied on doing the little things.

I can't really think of any backups on our team worth a shit honestly. MAYBE Amobi Okoye on a team weak at DT. I also think Dekoda Watson can be a solid player in the NFL, but not as an every down starter.

Shit, forgot about Cody Grimm. I think he can be a decent starter, but will likely only play special teams and certain packages with Barron/Barber starting.

I could've swore I've seen this topic posted a couple days ago...deja vu.

Anyway, he's not God's gift to quarterbacks but I was pretty surprised nobody wanted Kyle Orton as a starting QB. There's definitely a few teams out there where he could be a starter instead of throwing the young guns in the fire (Minny, Miami, etc).

I bet Evan Moore could start somewhere, I wish he'd start on our team actually, or at least get more time. Although Heckert said on a radio show that he could hopefully be a "30 plays a game guy" and that he probably won't get more opprotunities than he has had. Why? I'm not sure, maybe injuries stuff like dat.

Maybe Atogwe. Fletcher Cox probably won't start but I would think there are a bunch of teams that would start him right off the bat. Not that many guys on the Eagles truthfully.

Yeah, O.J is the only person I could think of. Fletcher most likely will start. Mike Patterson is out for the entire training camp and most likely will be into the regular season.

Dixon too. But the eagles organization is reporting that Cox must step up (ofcourse the other guys too; know the eagles rotate) and made him the focal point.

I think Craig Stevens could start. He has better hands then given for, a good blocker, ( best rated blocking TE out of college yr he was drafted )not that fast but he has some speed. Im surprised we dont use him as much.

We actually have some decent corners, so guys like Chris Harris and Drayton Florence could start on teams with bad CB's. Wesley Woodyard if we end up keeping non human urine man.

Sammie Lee Hill is the only one that comes to mind...

Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 03:52 PM) Xbox One has dropped the 24 hour check in rule
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 03:52 PM) you will no longer need internet to play offline games
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 03:53 PM) You will also be able to Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 03:57 PM) It was only a matter of time. They would have close to no sells except for hardcore microsoft and Halo fanboys. PS4 forced their hand. Now this makes it more interesting :yep:
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 03:58 PM) Xbox was sold out at every game stop though :shrug:
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:00 PM) I don't see the point in changing it if it didn't affect their sells.
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:01 PM) Because Game Stop isn't the only store in the world lol
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:01 PM) This is going to blow up sales, I bet a lot of people will cancel PS4 preorders now
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:03 PM) True lol
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:03 PM) about Game Stop
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:04 PM) The only difference now is the $100 price differential and that won't play a huge factor if at all especially with hardcore gamers.
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:05 PM) That $100 won't over throw preference for most people. Just broke people.
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:07 PM) Wish I didn't drop that 100 bones on the PS4 preorder now
Milla4Prez63  : (19 June 2013 - 04:08 PM) I'm still getting a PS4
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:12 PM) Yeah, I'm still getting the PS4 as well.
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:15 PM) fuck dat
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:15 PM) I have no reason to buy a PS4 now

dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:21 PM) So what makes Xbox so appealing? Exclusives?
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:22 PM) and better online play
Vin+  : (19 June 2013 - 04:23 PM) What exclusives? Halo? Damn near everything is multiplat anymore.
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:26 PM) Gears of War,
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:27 PM) Titanfall, Ryse look like they have potential to be really good and are exclusive to Xbox.
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:27 PM) Then you have Killer Instinct coming back
Vin+  : (19 June 2013 - 04:28 PM) I've got a feeling Titanfall is gonna make its way to the PS4 at some point. Just a matter of when.
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:29 PM) Killer instinct looked okay. It didn't strike me as an amazing fighting game
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:31 PM) Plus I hate the controller that Sony comes up with
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:31 PM) its tiny
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:31 PM) Ryse copied off of Gods of War battle sequence but seemed to over do it. Each action had "press this button" which extremely simplifies the fight encounter and leaves no real room for fighting creativity; creating your own combos. The battle sequence came off quite clunky to me as well. Meh

Conshy  : (19 June 2013 - 04:32 PM) they are similar in size
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:32 PM) As far as online play, we know 360 was better than PSN. Do we know for sure if Xbox one is better than PS4?
Conshy  : (19 June 2013 - 04:33 PM) xbone's is a little bigger though
Conshy  : (19 June 2013 - 04:33 PM) People are considering getting Xbox ones? <_<
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:33 PM) lmao its not even close in size
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:34 PM) the Xbox controller has a lot more bulk
Bucman  : (19 June 2013 - 04:34 PM) and yes I'm considering it since they just dropped the DRM, Internet and Region locked policy
dutchff7  : (19 June 2013 - 04:35 PM) Xbox one can be a valid choice now considering they changed all those bull shit requirements. Nothing sticks out why I should choose Xbox1 over PS4 though.
Conshy  : (19 June 2013 - 04:36 PM) I'm still pissed that Microsoft was willing to dick over everybody like that.
