Logan Wilson is arguably the best Wyoming alum in the NFL this season. Not taking anything away from Allen, but Wilson is having one hell of a year.

I agree. I'd put Epps up there, too.

I think Ganderson is a possible pro bowler this season. Muma needs to go to a different team where he can get some PT, J'ville is stacked at his position with a high value free agent and first rounder , so Muma wont see the field except for injury or short rests.

Bills should trade for Muma. Seriously

He would be a great fit
 
Since I’m doing fantasy, I’ve watched the saints play a little more than I ever would. I constantly hear Granderson’s name and see it on the Game Center. He’s all over the place
