2001 all draft team

After seeing the popularity of my all 2002 and 2003 draft teams I have decided to analyze my all 2001 team. This might be the most loaded draft of them all as it has one of the best quarterbacks in the game, the best running back and three of the ten best receivers. Plus it also has many pro bowl defensive players. The teams only weakness is noticebly at linebacker and the other safety spot. So here is my all 2001 draft team.

Offense:

QB: Drew Brees: Round 2 Pick 32

RB: LaDainian Tomlinson: Round 1 Pick 5

WR: Chad Johnson: Round 2 Pick 36

WR: Reggie Wayne: Round 1 Pick 30

WR: Steve Smith: Round 3 Pick 74

TE: Todd Heap: Round 1 Pick 31

T: Matt Light: Round 2 Pick 48

G: Steve Hutchinson: Round 1 Pick 17

C: Casey Rabach: Round 3 Pick 92

G: Leonard Davis: Round 1 Pick 2

T: Jeff Backus: Round 1 Pick 18

Defense:

DE: Aaron Schobel: Round 2 Pick 46

DT: Marcus Stroud: Round 1 Pick 13

DT: Richard Seymour: Round 1 Pick 6

DE: Derrick Burgess: Round 3 Pick 63

LB: Kendrell Bell: Round 2 Pick 39

LB: Dan Morgan: Round 1 Pick 11

LB: Morlon Greenwood: Round 3 Pick 88

CB: Nate Clements: Round 1 Pick 21

CB: Ken Lucas: Round 2 Pick 40

S: Adrian Wilson: Round 3 Pick 64

S: Dwight Smith: Round 3 Pick 84

Chargers slected LT and Brees in the same draft. That's a nice day's work.
Awesome receiving corps.

notables : Michael Vick, Rudi Johnson, Deuce McAllister, TJ who's your mama, Willie Middlebrooks, Adam Archuleta, and kicker bill grammatica for his award winning celebration.

I know lots of those guys would be on this list for other years but when a player like LT is drafted in this class someone good like Rudi and Deuce won't make it. Plus TJ is another great receiver but the other guys are so good he would probably be a no.4 receiver on this team.

Dominic Raiola (2nd rd, pick #50) for the Lions is better than Casey Rabach. I know the Lions are bad, but Raiola is a good player.
Honorable mention: #19 Casey Hampton, #44 Kris Jenkins, #61 Shaun Rogers (a LOT of great DTs in that draft).
Also: #34 DE Kyle Vanden Bosch, #58 RB Travis Henry, #79 OT Kareem McKenzie, #97 CB Anthony Henry, #115 FB Moran Norris
A strong 7th round, too: #204 WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh, #219 G Kynan Forney, #224 TE Eric Johnson, #233 S Marlon McCree, #243 DT Terdell Sands.
