Pat Williams deserves to be in the discussion. Haloti Ngata and Kelly Gregg aren't pure nose tackles, but both play enough like one to be considered. Haynesworth isn't a NT.

I like ACPs original order -- Williams (better at collapsing the pocket than Hampton), then Hampton. Wilfork and Williams behind a half tier.

My fault -- Read it as DT not NT.Williams is my choice.
 
It's Casey Hampton. I believe he's who most NFL players and coaches would choose, because he keeps making Pro Bowls the last few years even though he receives very little recognition from fans and the media.

 
Jamal WIlliams and it's not even close...

"You want to learn how to play NT, watch Jamal Williams"...that would be John Madden gushing over Jamal last season.

Are there other good NT...of course there is...every body is going to vote for their home team favorite.

I think it's close. Both Williams and Hampton can get from sideline-to-sideline, and while I posted that Williams is better at collapsing the pocket, I'd bet that Hampton could be nearly as disruptive in a predominantly one gap scheme.

You can rightfully call me a lot of names, but I don't believe blind homer is one of them. I said up top that Williams tops my list, but to say that Hampton isn't close to him is silly.
I think Hampton is also a fine NT, I just have gotten to watch a lot of SD games when I lived in SoCal, certainly not a Chargers fan but Williams can just blow up the middle of the line. I like Hampton a lot too but I see him more as holding the fort down while the LB behind him clean up everything...I think both would be the building blocks of a great defense.
 
You guys have done a great job discussing the true elite guys. I want to give a shout out to some of the geezers who are still bringing it: Grady Jackson (ATL), Ted Washington (CLE), Keith Traylor (MIA), and Sam Adams (DEN) - I like it a huge gut is not only something that doesnt bar you from being a good player in the NFL - but it can actually be an asset!

Do you like have a huge gut or something?
 
Put me down for Pat Williams... that run defense was ridiculous last year, and he was a huge reason.

pun intended.

No, but Im working on it.Buddha had a big gut, so they can't be all bad.
 
I've seen Pat Williams and Jamal Williams destroy one of the better centers in the league(O. Kruetz, although I believe he has been living off of his reputation for years now), flip a coin. I'd take J. Williams, Hampton, or Wilfork over P. Williams if I was starting a team, but only because Pat Williams was born in 1972.
