I'm going a different direction from most, and looking at the players age along with their production because I want someone who we could have for a LONG time.

1. Kevin Williams, DT, Minnesota. In his second year in the league, he has had 10.5 and 11.5 sacks in his first two seasons. At 6'5", 311 pounds, he clogs the middle and has forced two fumbles as well. He'd be a great guy at a position of need.

2. Ed Reed. He's only in his 4th year, and he's one of the best strong safeties in the league. Plus it would hurt the Ratbirds to lose him.

Damn, that was an inspired choice. I wasn't even thinking about Kevin Williams, and he's already one of the best DTs in the NFC.

Bravo to you, sir.

You beat me to it. As I was reading the endless string of Ed Reed's plus (name your own defensive lineman from Freeney, Stroud, Jenkins, Peppers, etc.), the name Kevin Williams came to my mind too. I may be a little biased because the first two guys I added to my Madden Bengals were Reed and K. Williams.

It's amazing how everyone instantly chose Reed. He's obviously a stud, but I wonder if fans from a different division would think as highly of him as we do. I guess he was the Defensive Player of the Year, so we're probably not alone.

Good pointless question. Obviously we all agree that Reed is a STUD!!

I would take either Peppers or Freeney(both equally as productive)Freeney has better numbers but Peppers has more talent.Then I would have to go w/ SS Roy Williams,I believe he is better than Ed Reed.He is the hardest hitting player in the league.Williams and Reed are in a league of their own,nobody elses name should be mentioned when it comes to strong safety.

So, let me get this straight . . . according to (almost) all of the previous posters, if we sign Ed Reed as a FA in 2006 and draft the very best DL, we will be prohibitive favorites to win the AFC?

Maybe Mikey Brown is finally right . . . we're only a player or two away!
