well before he got hurt he was doing good, after when he tried coming back he didn't do very well

yeah i think the guy who posted that was thinking of some other guy. ha
no1 better than Bam Bam

Justin Smith is in the top three best Dlinemen in the entire league according to stats, and gets a B+.....these rankings are laughable.

for the most part i agree but a couple disagreements. nate c. shouldda got a strong b-. a "c" is average. his covering is better than avg, heald most "wrs" in check except for the "atl wr". that a flaw in his game, speed. his tackling is better than avg too.

m. lewis-c. his age takes the grade down 1 & his lac of speed takes it another.

vd- strong b+. sorry but he still drops too many for me. especially when it's clutch time. not all the time but enuff for it not to be a "a".

a. smith- c-. again a "c" is avg, which i thin he is but when the game is on the line, he's less than avg. sometimes it was a dropped pass but there was a lot of bad passes.

exactly, just because Justin Smith doesn't record 15 sacks a year people want to give him a lower grade. This guy is an A+ DE in this league, IMO he is the best 3-4 DE in the NFL right now (name someone better?).
