“CT” Tamburello — Wide Receiver/Tight End

As much as we would all love to watch CT smash heads on the football field, he is better suited as a receiver. At over 6 feet tall with a ton of speed, CT is a dangerous downfield threat. He is also known for having a great leaping ability, as seen on the Inferno and the Duel 1. CT could out-man and grab balls over one or two defenders in coverage with his physicality and athleticism. His strength would also come in handy as a blocker at tight end. He could be a mini version of Rob Gronkowski, and he’d be perfect with the Patriots as he already has the Boston mumble.

Johnny Bananas — Slot Receiver/Kick Returner

In recent seasons of the Challenge, Johnny has become way faster on the ground and shown some really fancy footwork. I could see him being used as a slot receiver or catch passing tailback, like Danny Woodhead. Bananas isn’t suited to be a running back, nowhere near fast enough, but could catch passes for five yards pretty well as he is a bit shifty.

Darrell Taylor — Middle Linebacker

With him being a boxer, I expect Darrell to have quick reaction timing. Put him in the middle of your defense and he will follow the ball until someone is taken down. To top it off, he’s a speedy powerhouse, and it would be very fun to watch him smash some running backs.

Landon Lueck — Cornerback

So Landon is a beast, but putting him on the offensive end would be a waste of his talent. Making him the lockdown corner, he could be a white Richard Sherman, dominating receivers as he is picking off quarterbacks for touchdowns. He doesn’t have the wide receiver quality of getting open, but seems like a dog that cover so much ground instead. I’d rather he take over parts of the field than catch a few passes.

Wes Bergmann — Kicker/Punter

Picking a position was pretty tough for Wes. I imagined him in physical prime pre-roids(Fresh Meat 1 and Duel 1), where he was ripped and cut instead of big and bulky. His footwork is some of the best in Challenge history, so he might be a decent running back, but he can’t take a lot of hits. Maybe he could be a good safety with solid field vision. In the end, I’ll let his varsity soccer skills translate to the football field as the team kicker/punter.

Derrick Kosinski — Kick Returner

His size will put him at a severe disadvantage. He cannot be a running back as he does not have the body to take a ton of hits, but his height will also stop him from being a good slot receiver. However, Derrick is the Diesel for a reason, he is a pitbull with great speed. Derrick will be the kick returner specialist trying to burn the opponents for long touchdowns.

Evan Starkman — Quarterback, Linebacker

The quarterback of our team is obvious, it’s Evan. You need a leader of men, a person with a ton of poise and multiple abilities when you pick your QB. As a Cornell graduate, Evan is intelligent and knows how to play any game with multiple angles. He is graceful and skilled due to his years on the ice in hockey. But his body is that of a moose. Evan is over 6 feet tall with 220–235 lbs of bulk, with the speed of a man much smaller than him. He can be in the pocket, but also scramble out and run downhill. Evan can take some hits, but he can also put his head down and run over some defenders in the way.

Kenny Santucci — Special Teams/Cheerleader

Mr. Beautiful is very uncoordinated, but he is an able body that we will use as a blocker on special teams. His beauty can also be used on the sidelines as a male cheerleader for the female fans.

Abram Boise — Running Back

As a slightly bigger version of Derrick, I feel more comfortable with Abram as my running back as he is a crazy motherfucker who is willing to go up the middle.

Mark Long — Wide Receiver

He is very tall, and would be dangerous in the end zone. Mark will also be a back-up QB as confidences leaves his body with each breath that he takes.

Brad Fiorenza — Running Back/Wide Receiver

It might take two concussions in one game to knock out Abram, but if that happens we will need Brad to step up. Not the fastest guy, but a solid athlete who could fill a ton of slots.

LeRoy Garrett — Defensive End

As an edge rusher, LeRoy could be a monster. It amazes me that LeRoy never played collegiate sports, his pure athleticism on the ground has always been staggering. It’s crazy that LeRoy has never won a Challenge, when he has had so many jaw-dropping moments in show history.

Jordan Wiseley — Wide Receiver

Speedy and skilled receiver with only one hand? I say, yes!

Theo Von — Color Commentator

While he was a decent athlete in the archaic days of the Challenge, Theo’s comedic skills will be best used in the reporter booth. Maybe we put Kenny up there with him.

Preston Roberson-Charles — Just kidding.
