You may have a good point there. Hester was last on my likely list because his stats are so slanted to special teams. I would have never picked him, not because he was bad at all, just not much of a rounded player. It's similar to bringing in a kicker or a punter, a specialist in it's absolute definition. His receiver play was average.

Jared Allen losing out in favor of Dwight Freeney is a shame and a joke. Allen dominates Freeney at every meaningful stat, despite playing 30 fewer games--roughly two seasons.

sacks: Allen 136 Freeney 125.5
tackles: Allen 648 Freeney 350
solos: Allen 543 Freeney 299
TFL: Allen 171 Freeney 128
QBhits: Allen 228 Freeney 148

Ridiculous.
