Don't forget about the Scheveningen (the mother of all mispronunciations) with e6 and the Sveshnikov with e5.. Personally, I'm all for going for the Dragon, I've at least played that some over the board.
If I had to pick between the Najdorf, Sveshnikov, Scheveningen and Classical, I'd choose the Scheveningen.
