1. Lorenzo Alexander 2. Patrick Peterson 3. Julius Peppers 4. Charles Woodson 5. Percy Harvin 6. Desean Jackson 7. Darren Sproles 8. Devin Hester 9. Randall Cobb 10. B.J. Didn't spend a ton of time thinking about my list but it's instantly better than this one.

This list is a sham without the Redskins' Lorenzo Alexander. Dude can play (and has played) O-line, DT, DE, OLB, and TE. And just for good measure, this season they're moving him to ILB. Oh, I forgot to mention: HE'S A STUD ON SPECIAL TEAMS.

Any list that has Ted Ginn Jr listed as a WR/Returner ahead of DeSean Jackson is a total joke.

It is rediculous that Jackson is not on this list. He not only is WR, he also PR and can KR and do them all at an extremely high level.

charles woodson is a cornerback/safety/outside linebacker that returns punts and kick offs when the packers are down in a big game (maybe not with cobb anymore) and he could play WR

Yeah, he could also also be the QB and kicker and punter too if you needed to, right?? Please note I say this with as much sarcasm as you can possibly imagine.

Justin smith anyone? he was an all-pro at DE and DT and took some offensive snaps. put him anywhere and he would succeed.

im not sure why he wasnt listed but ted ginn was. especially since he is probably only gonna be used on special teams with the extra wideouts they grabbed

Ted Ginn? He is a quality return guy who is a bad wr. I don't see that as versatility. Maybe I'm just splitting hairs but my idea of being versitile is being able to do more than one thing well.

i was expecting a little more out of this article. maybe some deeper analysis? i was hoping Randall Cobb would be on the list, but not because he did alright as a returner and receiver. those numbers should be expected of him. and that's not exactly versatility. i figured because he's the kind of guy who could (in a pinch) play QB or even CB (when given the reps).
