ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) The guys who had the most heart and grit (not the most talent): Don Beebe - - best example of how any sport SHOULD be played Antoine Winfield - - when a large FB caught a swing pass heading in his direction it wasn't a fair fight Frank Reich - - QB for biggest comebacks in both NCAA and NFL history Darryl Talley - - my brothers voted him in Edited May 9, 2013 by ICanSleepWhenI'mDead

Simpson (DQ'd) (5 time All-Pro). #4- Joe DeLamielleure (6 time All-Pro). #5- Thurmon Thomas (3 time All-Pro and league MVP). #6- Andre Reed (2 time All-Pro) #7- Jim Kelly (3 time All-Pro) #8- Cookie Gilchrist (3 time All-Pro). #9- Cornelius Bennett ( 3 time All-Pro and was twice the AP Defensive Player of the Year). #10- Steve Tasker (5 time Pro-Bowler). Honorable Mentions: Talley, Kemp, Shaw, Dubenion, Moorman Dude Thurman has 1 MVP, Bennett won the AFC defensive player of the year- not the NFL and Jim Kelly was a 1st time all pro once and a second time all pro once. I don't feel like looking up all the rest of the guys but did you just make this stuff up?

TheBrownBear Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Overall: Ralph Wilson Jr. Jim Kelly Bruce Smith (thought about swapping him with Polian, but he is the all-time sack leader) Marv Levy Players: Kelly Talley Smith Thomas OJ can have his own unfinished monument like that Crazy Horse one near Mount Rushmore.

26CornerBlitz Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 For comparison purposes: @ProFootballTalk How can 49ers' Mt. Rushmore ever be limited to only four? http://wp.me/p14QSB-8V6d

And I think Lott is the right #4, though there are some other HOFs from earlier eras. As for Buffalo, no matter how much criticism you think he deserves, there really can't be any question that Ralph is #1 on the list. Like it or not, he's our George Washington. Beyond that there is plenty of room for debate.
Ralph W. Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 Me, Myself, I, and the 4th spot I leave for my EGO.
Haven Moses Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 Jack Kemp Kelly Thurman Bruce Ralph has the stadium named after him. That's enough.
