There are always a handful of players from around the league that I like, for one reason or another.  ...sometimes, it's their attitude, sometimes it's their style of play, sometimes it's because they make me laugh.

Who do you like right now, that doesn't play on your favorite team?

Strangely enough, the Cowboys (a team I traditionally dislike) has 2 players that I really do like:
Tony Romo and Marion Barber.

How can you hate Tony Romo?  He's such a nice guy, humble, and says the right things that I really think are genuine.  He also does good stuff in the community, and has his head on straight.  He's the opposite of some of the super-star prima donna types.  He doesn't push any agenda that I know of.  He's just a regular guy who I would probably like to have a beer with.

Marion Barber plays hard.  I like the way he runs the ball.  It's really as simple as that.

I know he's a Pat but I still really dig Wes Welker. He was never drafted, he walked on and look what he's acomplished! Parcells never would have let him get away............. Cry


Kevin Mawae. Another ex Rival player but he has been so killer at his posistion for so long. He used to toss Zack Thomas around like he was an ex girlfriend. GREAT Player.

And I think Colt Brennan of the Redskins is destined for great things.

It's genetically coded in me to not like any Cowboys players...but I am close with Jason Witten. If he played for another team, he'd probably be one of my favorite players.

I like a lot of players out there. I like Braylon Edwards, despite his teflon no-stick hands. I like Larry Fitzgerald in AZ, Joe Thomas for the Browns, Steve Slaton in Houston, Jay Cutler and Spencer Larsen in Denver, Adrian Peterson for the Vikes, anyone named Manning...and a ton more.

I really like A.J. Hawk of the Packers,I also admire Donald Driver because he's overcome such adversity in his life and is a great player and a solid citizen.
Kevin Mawae (who I knew when he was a kid)
Urlacher - because he plays lights out
Manning--both of them
Marvin Harrison--goes about his business quietly and is always open
Adrain Peterson-seems like a good kid
I always liked John Lynch,but I think he retired the other day.

Brian Urlacher as well. Another #54 Middle linebacker I really dig.

Orlando Pace is another player I really dig. Great for so long. Very worthy of that #1 pick.

Adrian Peterson and Tony Gonzalez.

Saftey/ Ed Reed

Special Teams/Devon Hester

 DT/Trevor Pryce

OG/Marcus Mcneil

Can we add former players here?  I've always been a fan of Tony Siragusa, because he lives it up and does whatever it takes to enjoy life. 

Case in point.  When he signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent, he managed to get a $1000 signing bonus.  After taxes, it came to about $675.  He cashed the check, went to his hometown of Klenowieth, NJ, picked up three close friends from high school, went to the local pub, threw the money on the bar, and they all ate and drank away every last dollar.  That's my idea of fun.

Patrick Willis....that guy is a beast!

Frank Gore...also a beast.

Kevin Smith from Detroit...my gf knew him when she was younger...he asked her out...she said no  Shocked....beside that he's been getting me some sweet fantasy points lately.

of course AD and LT.

Boldin is one of my favorites too along with Hines Ward for the same reason....hard nosed, fuck you up type of players.
