Dude makes it look so easy. It’s like he doesn’t even try, he just turns the defender out of every play. He will end up with arguable the best career from the 2006 draft.

That 2003 line was nasty, can’t wait for Kelly to bring that back!

Odell showing up too. Nice to see two Tiger greats doing well in the post season

Just told my son that Whitworth has been dominating in the NFL longer than he’s been alive.

Who would you put above him??
Kyle Williams is only one close... and I’m not sure that’s particularly close

That’s pretty funny. How many years has Jahri been retired now?

He retired after the 2017 season. What’s your point?

Evans had an amazing run, but give me 16 years at a much more crucial position any day.

Hester lol. Anyone redrafting in hindsight would take Whit over him. Hell, he could play another 2-3 years. No team is passing on a 20 season left tackle over a punt returner who had a few good seasons.

Evans is going to the hall of fame. I think Hester will too. Whitworth isn’t.

But we all have our own opinions

He was a similar player to Whitworth, yet played four fewer years. One was a guard, one was a tackle. That would be two points. And I say that being still a little ticked off at Whitworth’s comments after the theft in the NFC championship game.

Evans still racked up more accolades in 4 fewer seasons

Always think back to his draft : both he & Faulk were rumored to be leaving early & everyone figured it would be Faulk leaving, Wentworth staying. And it ended up just the opposite.

I certainly can understand the arguments in Jahri’s favor. And to be honest playing the guard position for Brees was probably even more important than playing tackle.

Actually I believe that was Faneca that left early when Faulk stayed.
