You're going to catch some flack from a few posters here over the bolded, especially. I agree, and have made arguments in Mayo's favor in the past. So far, all anybody can tell me is that Lewis is better because he screams and dances when he comes out onto the field and pass rushes more often.
Why does anybody care what that dweeb, Clayton thinks?
The guy doesn't look look or sound like he knows anything about football.
Hell I doubt he's even been on an athletic field his whole life.
Clayton's list sucks. Call me what you will, but how can you leave Wilfork off the list when the man played (and dominated) every position on the D-Line and dropped back in coverage during the season? Get out of here Clayton. Mayo being left off was also ridiculous. Also, I have all the respect in the world for Nnamdi and Revis, but McCourty outperformed both and so did Joe Haden. This list sucks.
Clayton is the most predictable ESPN "personality" they have. Everything he writes or says is manufactured and watered down. He will always choose style over substance. He isn't creative at all. He writes exactly what ESPN wants. He is uninteresting and pointless.
A CB who has no picks or very few does not mean they are bad or the CBs with more picks are better. Revis and the Oakland guy barely get anything thrown in their direction. That's the ultimate complement for a CB.
Ah, yes. The old, "He looks like a geek who doesn't know football" so he must not. On that note, I would take Revis out for many, and Wilfork over Suh. Andre Johnson over Reggie. Probably Kareem McKenzie out as well. Chill with the hate on the "Front 8". The dude just wanted to give out an extra spot, relax.

Forget McCourty, how the hell is Wilfork not on his team? He's had maybe the best season of his career and he is among the best interior DLs in the league, if not the best. Utterly ridiculous.
Suh supposedly tailed off considerably as the season progressed while a kid like McCourty got better. But that's the problem with most of these mediot awards. They are predetermiined out of the gate and then it takes a catastrophic performance to knock the favorite out. That's how Brady ended up atop the QB list...everyone else had some catastrophic stretches, particularly the perrenial front runner Manning and the other two media preferences Brees and Rivers (and thankfully Vick whom some are still trying to find some award for including Banks giving him his Offensive POY nod...LOL).
Media think a lot like fantasy fans. They don't get to watch a lot of games or even teams in their entirety, they get fed a lot of highlight hype and out of context stats. It kills me that almost every week there is a losing QB touted among the league leaders based simply on his yardage stat...
