NFL 2013 SEASON

[Duchess]

I have the 2013 NFL pre-season power rankings. I'll post the teams that I know have fans in here. If I neglect to do yours, tell me and I'll grab it for you.

Ladies first - User, your team comes in at #1

#1
SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

If anything, the 49ers strengthened their position at Radio City Music Hall. Trade up to get a safety ( Eric Reid) to potentially replace Dashon Goldson? Check. Get the biggest bargain in the draft ( Marcus Lattimore)? Check. Fortify an aging defensive front? Check.
============================================

OP, I know you're a Steelers fan -

RANKED #19 - down 2

PITTSBURGH STEELERS

While many league observers question Jarvis Jones' longevity, the short term is an issue in Pittsburgh. More than at any time in recent memory, the Steelers are hoping a bunch of kids -- Le'Veon Bell, Markus Wheaton and Jones -- can provide significant contributions right now. Throw in David DeCastro, too, whose rookie season was pretty much a wash due to injury.
=============================================

MS - Vikings
RANKED #12 - up 2

MINNESOTA VIKINGS

Vikings fans have to be excited about this draft class, though NFL Network researcher Drew Christensen made a hopeful plea to me on the subject of Cordarrelle Patterson: "Less Troy Williamson ... more Moss." Either way, that Vikings first round looks damn good on scrolls. (I'll be here all week.) Random aside: Anyone else think Aliens when they saw Patterson's hair under his hat?

=============================================

FQ2 - Colts
RANKED 14 - down 1

The Colts rank 14^th on the strength of Andrew Luck and some smart, if not dynamic, free-agent signings. The addition of Greg Toler makes sense. This is an unheralded player who performed very well in Arizona last season. Meanwhile, LaRon Landry feels like Bob Sanders 2.0. Let's hope he doesn't parallel Sanders' injury history.

=============================================

I'm an Eagles fan & I think Mr. Bone is too.
RANKED #23 - up 2
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

Philadelphia is yet another club that just completed an exemplary draft. Whether or not you're on the Matt Barkley train, the fact this team got him at 98^th overall is notable. Philadelphia filled needs all over the place with savvy picks, starting, of course, with offensive tackle Lane Johnson, who should step in and start immediately. Tight end Zach Ertz should get on the field plenty, whether he starts or not. Ditto Bennie Logan on the defensive line.

=============================================

nrkerr - Chiefs
RANKED #30
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

Let's chat about something other than an offensive tackle who is unhappy with his contract. (Seriously, how much run is Branden Albert -- an OT on a 2-14 team -- getting in the media?) Third-round pick Travis Kelce (TE) and fourth-rounder Nico Johnson (ILB) are far more interesting; they could help the Chiefs immediately. Despite being a Day 3 guy, Johnson could beat out Akeem Jordan in August.

=============================================

I can't recall who Crash & Donovan liked & if anyone is a New York Giants fan GTFO.
