NFC North All-Time 53-man roster, final draft

I decided to upgrade this to make it look nicer and also show visuals on the accolades. This prepares the roster for comparison against other divisions later.

I made 2 roster changes, Lou Ceeekmur at T and Kevin Williams at DT. I also corrected the depth errors, they are now in the proper order.

Obviously, the players from today are better athletes than the part-time milkmen of the Halas era, but If I were to create a list based on who would be the best team played today, there would hardly be anyone prior to 2000 on this list. For this reason, to truly appreciate the greats, this list has been created primarily based on dominance over their peers, not who would play better in a game today.

Peak was considered along with longevity, although every player on this list had both.

In cases where I could not split hairs to make a decision, the tie-breaker was the most recent player. That only affected a few decisions on this list.

I still made an error, LeRoy Butler is a packer not a Viking. I am probably never gonna get this perfect, it is what it is.

NFC North All-Time 53-man roster.

Having spent about a month going over the greatest players in NFC North history, taking your opinions and adjusting this list based on your feedback, I've come up with this all-time NFC North team.

Obviously, the players from today are better athletes than the part-time milkmen of the Halas era, but If I were to create a list based on who would be the best team played today, there would hardly be anyone prior to 2000 on this list. For this reason, to truly appreciate the greats, this list has been created primarily based on dominance over their peers, not who would play better in a game today.

Peak was considered along with longevity, although every player on this list had both.

In cases where I could not split hairs to make a decision, the tie-breaker was the most recent player. That only affected a few decisions on this list.

Now Im sure youll all lose your shit about every little thing you dont agree with, proceed.
