With the end of the decade, it's time for us to select our all-decade team for the 2010s. Credit to Direckshun for the idea; I'm just implementing it.
Here are the rules:
1. I'll put up lists of position groups one at a time.
2. Each list will contain guys who had at least one notable stat line in their career. I'll generally put them in descending order of some key stat.
3. The stats will contain ONLY their body of work between 2010 and 2019 for the Chiefs. No pre-2010 stats and no stats for other teams.
4. The number of roster spots will be the same as the number of roster spots on the 2019 Super Bowl roster for the Chiefs.
5. You can use whatever criteria you want to select the team. It can be total stats for the decade, it can be dominance in a shorter period, it can be playmakers who didn't screw up badly, whatever. It's your call. Feel free to use any criteria not listed in your decision. For example, if you know that Terrance Copper was an amazing blocker, you can build that into your decision.
6. In a subsequent poll we will determine which players are the starters on the all-decade team. In the first round, you're just going to fill the 53-man roster.
Our next position group is cornerbacks. SIX cornerbacks will make the all-decade team. So pick SIX cornerbacks. [Reply]
Last spot came down between Fuller and Carr (can’t believe he’s still in the league).
Fuller played with a rod in his (pinky?) last year and was one of our only reliable defenders. He also came through in the Super Bowl. Last year’s d-backs (sadly, likely Berry included) gives up that 2nd and 10 and if we give up that conversation, who knows what happens in the SB.
It looks like our all-decade team is Flowers, Peters, Sean Smith, Brandon Carr, Charvarius, and Breeland. Fuller put up a fight but missed the cut. [Reply]
