No - Jobe Watson & Paddy Ryder (both can get their own ball and show real determination rather than receiving and going missing every other game)

Brett Deledio - easily.
Would be Essendon's best midfielder and best forward.

If he's not, he'd be in our best 2 or 3.
No shame in that, he's a top player.

When I first read this, I thought he meant better than the entore Essendon list put together 
But, yes, if Deledio was at Essendon, he'd be their gun player. No doubt about that.

Obviously I am not a huge Deledio fan but I am surprised with comments that he would be clearly better than our whole list. If he was at Essendon I think he would be in our top 5 but not sure of the exact position but I would like to think Watson, Ryder, Hille (if he returns to his 2008 form) are all better players.
For me Deledio personifies Richmond, looks very good not often enough.
Not that it is definitive but Deledio didn't feature in this years MS Top 50 while 2 Essendon players did (Watson & Fletcher).

He'd definitely be better off at Essendon than at Richmond.
Essendon are one A grade contested midfielder away from becoming a consistent finals side.
Deledio would be a top 5 Essendon player for sure.
What's the point of this thread? Carlton fans can say "Judd is better than the entire Essendon list" - yeah that's true but it hasn't stopped us smashing them for the last two years.
It's about your spread of talent, not the top 4-5 players.

id say deledio but maybe thats coz im a tigers supporter
i think you guys saying watson is better is a fair argument but to say ryder is better is a joke, hes had half a decent season thats it, if he does it for afew years than ill say hes a good player
