QB - I'd be receptive to a Griese over Kelly argument for the third spot; there's really not anyone who would pick different choices for 1-2; Brady's rings don't catch Marino's total value, but five years from now, that might be a different call. Either Grogan or Ferguson is 5th.
RB - The Juice v. Martin question is close; Juice was clearly better game for game, Martin had a longer career and more total value. Its the same debate between Juice and Thurman; I split the difference, taking Thurman as the top back, but Simpson as the other starter. McNeil's pass receiving gets him the last spot over Csonka.
WR - It's a mess; I like Reed, just by a nose, above about a half dozen other guys, all of whom could essentially be ordered in any way one wished. Maynard/Walker/Clayton are the guys not here but who could be.
TE - I'll take both Jets TE by not much over both NE TE.
OL - Some famous linemen, Stephenson, and the guys from the Bills, don't make the club. I don't think there's any question at all about the starters.
