Percent of vote the winner got will be in parenthesis, position change vs. 2022 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'm surprised there have been no votes for Owens. The one free agent GB signed this year, it seems like he has a reasonably decent shot of being one of the starting safeties.

But Myers is far and away most likely starter left.

I think #3 WR is more valuable than #1 TE to GB. Both positions are committees, 3rd WR will almost certainly outsnap and outproduce 1st TE. Therefore my 2nd selection will be Toure, he's likely to generate the most offense statistically of anyone remaining.

Stokes is competing to be #3 or #4 CB. There is still a lot of upside there, but that's a position that should go in the mid 20's, after the everydown starters and 2nd tier offensive weapons (#3/#4 WR, #1/#2 TE).

I voted Savage last time and defend my reasons, but now I question why I would have him above Rudy Ford, who mostly played well last season, did get benched but way less to warrant it than Savage, and is a player on the ascent whereas Savage trended in the wrong direction since Year 2.

I blame all of you why did no one else point him out? Overlooking guys who gave us something recently, too distracted by shiny new toys and exciting upside guys!

Myers could go anywhere from outplaying this placement by several spots to us concluding he's not the guy at C, #21 sounds right. Myers and Ford.

2x2=4, was it only Savage that had trouble in Jerry Grays secondary coached and Barry's DC schemes, seems to me this other guy Alexander had plenty of complaints to, once the season ended so did Jerry Grays job with us, I think Grays zone terminolgy where a big part of the Savage decline and acting upset issues that caused him to be benched.

often players have second year slumps, I expect that is the case with Meyers, he also had a new position coach, which could explain the slow start we saw from the entire OL.

Meyers and Stokes

I never liked Meyers. I liked Humphrey. And Meyers hasn't done anything to prove otherwise.

I went Musgrave and Stokes.

I went Musgrave. The path is wide open at TE with little competition besides Kraft. I’d rather take an unknown here with high potential that bad players like Myers and Stokes.

Tarvarius Moore, also a free agent, also a Safety, also reasonably decent shot of being one of the starting Safeties. It's a crowded room of mediocrity and there haven't been many reports that anyone is separating from the pack.
