Poll Of The Decade's Best: Defensive Line

If any of you are like me, your Holiday season included Christmas parties filled with family, friends, booze and strippers.  Just joking about the first two, I skip those lame parties.

Because I am still recovering from all that fun, let's get to the poll.

This poll should be interesting...

I don’t think a single player on this list was head-and-shoulders better than everyone else. However, there are a lot of solid players on that list. I think in the end the clear choice is Tevita Finau………..

….in all sincerity, I voted for Keilen Dykes.

I voted for...

Dykes.

I thought including Finau would get me killed but people love the guy!

Leave no doubt tonight! Leave no doubt tonight! No doubt! They shouldn't of played the Old Gold'n Blue.

Kelein Dykes for 4 years of solid play. Dingle had one year or less of great play. Including Finau was funny, and I assume all his votes are jokes. Scooter Berry should not be dead last. He has been very solid for 3 years.

Antwan Lake

because I have a thing for defensive linemen with numbers in the 80s

I voted for Antwan as well

My recollection was that he was a very solid, capable and dependable player.
