Who are the best three players on the team currently, and who is your prediction on who the best three this year will be. Ignore positional value.

Howard and Hicks seem like the best two, third doesn’t seem clear.

I think most people would say Howard and Hicks. I suspect the other one is already Roquan Smith but since we don't know that yet, I'll say Trevathan when healthy.

1.) Trey Burton
2.) The guy throwing the ball to Trey Burton
3.) The guy catching the ball from Trey Burton

(see above for answer to second part of the question)

Howard, Hicks and Fuller would be the guys I single out as the best.

First two are easy.

3rd is a little sketchy… Danny T probably but I think you gotta put Cohen into the discussion.

Little man does a lot things really well in two phases of the game.

I suspect pretty quickly we will see that it's Hicks, Floyd and either Robinson or Roquan.

The best cornerback on our team that just had an all-pro season...the same cornerback that GreenBay just tried to steal...some logic you got there

At the time of FA, GB had a pretty dire group of corners.

Fuller was garbage until his contract year. He still can't run with receivers, turn his head and find the ball. He plays much better facing the LOS and he tackles well. Classic zone corner. Would have been ok in Lovie's defense but I don't trust him playing man.

And thank you, I agree that my logic is consistently impeccable.

Also, which all pro team? He wasn't even an alternate on the AP all pro team.

Pace must feel Fuller is one of the team's better players because he's one of the highest paid on the team.

We don't have a Pro Bowl player on the team although Hicks definitely should be one. It makes it hard to pick out the other 2 because nobody else is really a standout. I'd go with Hicks, Howard, and Trevathon.

Really isn't a number 3 that stands out.

Outside of Howard and Hicks I'm waiting for someone to step up. I've watched both of them play inspired football, others, not so much to that level.

Long would have made my personal list before his injuries.

GB's corners are still trash until they prove otherwise. They just drafted their what? 5th and 6th cornerbacks in the past 4 years? Fuller wasn't trash before last season. He just wasn't living up to his draft position and was lost for a season. His career arc has thus far only been upward. That is called progress and development. His development isn't over either. DBs are one of the slowest developing positions in all of football.

Agreed. He runs with his back to the ball and doesn't get turned around in time. Happens too much. I wouldn't put him in the top three either.

I’m not sure where you’re getting this, his hip fluidity was elite last season.
