Here is the kicker: Can't be a QB

Assume the rest of the team is all league average players to make everything relatively equal. If your QB sucks then there is less incentive to have Gronk or Julio since you can't maximize them. If your OL can't run block then having AP might not be as valuable, etc...

Only for this season.

Whoever the best young corner is. Revis or someone like that but not sure of his age. Besides qb, they are the most rare to come along and get right. Watt hasn't meant anything to the Texans in terms of win/ loss. You get 1 great corner, you can be average at the other 3 secondary spots.

Anyone mention of a rb or wr in today's nfl is way off. JJ or Sherman.
Why would you need a top defensive player if the offense is just average? My selection of Beckham is based on the fact he plays on an average team with an average qb, yet he still puts up top numbers. So, his value shouldn't decrease in this scenario described.

Watt or Justin Houston. The way I see it is the only way to beat a top QB is to have a one yourself or have someone who can get after him.

Either a tackle that can protect the QB blindside, a stud in the middle of the defensive line or a lockdown CB.

He could probably play that position the way he goes after people after turnovers. Everyone has seen the tape when he layed a USC linebacker out. Turn the ball over in the NFL, just fall down.

Non qb - Adrien Peterson

Are you serious?

1. He is a running back that has not made a difference in win/ losses
2. He is 30 and likely has a shitload of carries on him

How many playoff games has even been in? If anything, I would trade that guy in a second. I wish you and I were GM's right now. I could prob. got 5 1st and 2nd round picks for an overated running back.
