Which year? Not this QB crop

I don't know enough about the players in the trenches, and I'm sure most here don't, either.
Do you have an aversion to clicking links?

I say no. And it's not close.

The worst team in the league has a lot of players who are worse than these all-rookie team guys.

Comes down to the lines, and the worst team in the league wins there.

I'm not going to give an absolute no. I'll just say it depends on the draft class.
This year, no way.

Rookie Team also probably makes much more mental mistakes and blown assignments.

I feel like it'd prolly be a really good contest. The top rookies are obviously fantastic players and usually have a passion for the game that dies the longer you're in the league.

Depends on the year.. in a year wtih a great class and a TERRIBLE worst team.. sure.
This year? Nah
This year? Nah

In a year with a ready to play QB like Luck, absolutely. The 2011 class would be a lot of squad's brains in. Hell the first 20 picks alone might do the trick.

Look back to 2011 draft. You're telling me Cam Newton gets a WR trio of Julio Jones, AJ Green and Randall Cobb, Demarco Murray, defense has JJ Watt, Von Miller and Richard Sherman, and they don't have a shot to beat the worst team in the league? All of these players came into the league better than the majority of players will ever be.
I'm not saying it'd be a blowout, but to say they don't have a shot, come on.

~~~~ you can't tell me that this squad wouldn't TROUNCE the Browns for starters.
Weakest link is safety, and CB class, so deep, one of those CB's could transition to FS.
And if you say because no punter is listed, it invalidates the list ....
Was surprised how stacked the 2008 draft was.

These rookie guys are already good starters, and are soon-to-be pro-bowlers.

It also depends on when in the season they play? Game 1 vs Game 16.
