Rank The Roster: 2023 Edition

1. Jaire Alexander (43%)[+2]
2. Aaron Jones (26%)[+6]
3. David Bakhtiari (34%)[+1]
4. Kenny Clark (50%)[-2]
5. Rashan Gary (57%)[+1]
6. Elgton Jenkins (54%)[-1]
7. DeVondre Campbell (29%)[--]
8. Christian Watson (32%)[+14]
9. Jordan Love (32%)[+21]
10. Current (xx%)[--]

Percent of vote the winner got will be in parenthesis, position change vs. 2019 will be in brackets.

Here's how this works:

Each day there is a new thread/poll, starting at #1, on down to whereever we get. The whole point of this exercise is to have something to talk about in the lean news months to carry us to camp. Each poll will be open for voting for 24 hours. New threads will only be created on weekdays. Ties will cause a runoff poll. You may vote up to TWO players (a change that was made mid-poll last year, seemed to work well).

Simply voting is not enough!

Post why you voted for who you did and provide a player to add to the next poll (every poll will be a list of 15-20 guys, new players added in bunches every few days).

Here's the thing. There is no criteria. This is an exercise to foster discussion therefore there are no clear criteria for ranking. Who is better right now? Who will have the best season? Who was better last year? Sort of a combo of them all? Do you take positional value into account? It really doesn't matter.

I went Dillon and Quay. I could be persuaded a number of different ways after Dillon. Voting for Quay includes the expectation that he makes a pretty good jump and starts playing the way that leads to recognition eventually.

About time to add a fresh batch of players. Tom, Toure, Newman, Slaton, ??? Who is missing?

Yosh & Enagbare are two of the big ones along with the others you already named. Maybe Tarvarius Moore & Rudy Ford?

This feels like a no brainer for Preston Smith, unless I'm forgetting something. Rasul is probably the same tier for me. Then we start sorting through the extpectations of the developing youth

My picks are Quay and Rasul. I'm expecting a big jump from Quay this year.

Nixon and Quay. Nixon is the only thing special about the STs. Had he been returning from day one we could have made the playoffs.
I expect Quay to make a big jump and keep head on when the play is over.
