Umenyiora should be the 1st DE off the boards this year ahead of team mate Strahan, Peppers and Taylor.

Ooh, awesome idea Barnaby.
 
btw, You may be right about Umenyiora being more valuable, but he will most likely be picked after Peppers and Taylor.

Thanks JYJ! I thought you might like the idea of a top 100 defensive player list.
 
I think after this year Umenyiora will be the premiere defensive end in football. He is on the upside while Taylor and Strahan are winding down. Peppers is a close 2nd in my book. I guess we shall see!

Thanks for starting this BW.  Sorry I jumped in late -- wasn't online at all on Sunday.
 
Anyway, I wonder how many people are considering the scoring system???
 
Based on 2005 stats, all but 3 of the top 25 IDP scorers (based on PPG to account for injuries) were LBs.  Those three were safeties Adrian Wilson and Gibril Wilson, and a still-available corner.  The best defensive lineman was the 35th highest scorer (and is still available), while guys like Strahan (#46), Taylor (#48), and Umenyiora (#52) are already selected.

I can't disagree with that, he certainly has shown steady improvement, and now is entering what should be his most productive years.   In any event, what a terrific 2nd round pick by the Giants.

That's a great point, typically DE's and especially DT's are not worth as much as LB's and Safties in a conventional scoring system.
 
A conventional scoring system probably looks like:
 
Tackle - 2 points
Assist - 1 point
Sack - 4 points
INT - 4 points
FumRec - 2-4 points
TD - of course 6
Safety - whatever, as these are just fluke events
 
Arguably, forced fumbles should be accounted for, that will bump some of the better DEs.

Hey Philly,
 
I just noticed that Barnaby delineated the suggested scoring system on the other thread:
 
Tackle Solo (2)  
Tackle Assist (0.5)  
Sack (5)  
Interception (5)  
Fumble Force (2)  
Fumble Recovery (2)  
Touchdown (6)  
Safety (2)  
Pass Defended (0)  
Block Kick (2)
