I'd go with Rice here

I agree - bad year in '05, but he should come back strong.

Isn't Rice 47? I'd rather have the much younger Justin Smith in a dynasty..

Isn't Rice 47? I'd rather have the much younger Justin Smith in a dynasty..

he'll be 32 years old in FebruaryBUT, he's only missed one game in the past 5 years and that was from a team suspension this year. He's also averaged 39 solo tackles, 13.5 sacks and 4 FFs over that time span.

Justin Smith is 5 years younger but he's never finished with more than 8.5 sacks in a season, and his average of 43 solos/year and 1 FF/yr isn't quite enough to make up the gap.

Smith will give you better production over the next 4 or 5 years, but I think Rice will perform better over the next 2 years. Rice is still a couple years younger than Michael Strahan and Strahan just missed out on making the top 10. He's also about the same age as Jason Taylor who made the top 3. I don't think age is a sufficient reason to downgrade Rice unless you're going to do the same for Taylor.

Good points.. You changed my mind.. And, for the record, I'd rather have "very good" performance for two years than "good" performance for four. Good performance can be replaced easier..
