Beerball Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 My top 10 to wear #10 starts & ends with Gibran Hamden, but, if forced to pick an additional 9 my list would be, in some particular order: Spike Jones Dan Darragh Leo Hart Levi Brown Kelly Holcomb Mark Miller David Humm AVP Robert Woods
SouthernMan Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 in no particular order: OJ Simpson Billy Jo Hobert Perry Tuttle Eric Flowers Aaron Maybin Dean Cain Ernie DiGregorio Tom Jolls The French Connection Talas
ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 No love for Bill Lumberg? He and Billie Joe McAllister only made honorable mention.

Kyle Williams First 8 are from the squads that made me the happiest, last two are from the current squad and are the two players that make me proudest to call myself a Bills fan today.
Thrivefourfive Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 My top Bills. I find it absolutely impossible to consider players that I didn't watch play. 1. Jim Kelly - QB 2. Thurman Thomas - As underrated as a hall of famer can get considering his position, stats, and team success. Super Bowl 2, as I call it, really hurt him. 3. Bruce Smith - What can you say?... He was dominant and played at a high level for an extremely long career. 4. Andre Reed - Such a pro. Very dependable, and just super anywhere on the field after 5 yards. He was very physcially gifted as well, and bruised DBs. 5. Cornelius Bennett - The fastest linebacker in the game in his prime. The dude would chase down wrs on the opposite sideline who got 20 yd headstarts. 6. Kent Hull - The success of the offensive was indicative of him setting the o-line straight. I think you wouldn't take too many centers ahead of him during his era. 7. Eric Moulds - Talent wasted, sadly. PERIOD. 8. Darryl Talley - Intense, team oriented, and wanted it bad. He controlled the middle of the field. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. 9. Steve Tasker - He was an absolute playmaker. He wasn't an every down guy, but he simply changed games. 10. Steve Christie - The SOB would have made that kick.

Buftex Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 One thing I don't understand is how Booker Edgerson got so much recent love from the team compared to Butch. I thought Butch was just outstanding compared to Booker who was good but not great. Maybe Butch was just flashier & I was too young to know better, cause I also thought Dennis Shaw was going to be a star, he did win Rookie ofThe Year after all lol. When you say "love from the team" do you mean from the Buffalo Bills franchise? Not sure (both guys are a little before my time), but I can tell you, Booker has been one of the most active Buffalo Bills alumni guys from the AFL, over the years...he shows up for every alumni function...I have probably met him a half dozen times over the years...he represents those championship teams well.

Yeah, I meant the team. I don't remember Butch ever getting honored by them like Booker did a couple years ago. That probably explains why... nothing against Booker, I just thought Butch was much better.
R2ITRich Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 Love reminiscing with this post. A lot of good memories. Thanks... Glad to see Lucious Sanford mentioned. Also, loved tackling my brothers using the Tony Greene 'At the knees' tactic. Thought I would add a couple additional names I loved to watch, Kenneth Davis and Roland Hooks. Both were underrated, playing second fiddle, but always seemed to shine when given the chance. They were the precursor to the Fred Jackson style of football. Do whatever is needed to get the job done. Thanks again...

Butch was a play maker and Booker was long regarded as one of the best cover corners in the league one on one.
ProcessAccepted Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 1. Takeo Spikes 2. Kelly 3. Mario 4. Bruce 5. Dareus 6. Molds 7. Flutie 8. Thurman 9. Andre 10. Sam Adams Not in any order. Looking at your list I'm guessing whatever is in your blood would show up in a drug screening test.

Both were underrated, playing second fiddle, but always seemed to shine when given the chance. I'm pretty sure I heard (Chris Berman) years ago that Hooks is the answer to a trivia question: Who is the only player to score 4 touchdowns on only 4 touches in one half? I dont remember, and after a 2 minute google I gave up. And in the 3rd minute: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/197909090buf.htm Edited July 6, 2015 by maddenboy
Formerly Allan in MD Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 No love for Golden Wheels? Also, Archie Matsos was the type of linebacker we should have more of now. How can Dangerous Dan McGrew not be on these lists? He was so consistent; consistently snapping the ball over the punter's head. On the Bottom 10 List, Walt Patulski heads it up, no question. Wolfgang Felgemacher anyone?
Uffalo Ills Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 1) Thurman 2) Bruce 3) Jim Kelly 4) Andre 5) Fred-Ex (Even though the stats aren't always there, he is one classy dude) 6) Cookie 7) Lee Evans 8) Moulds 9) Tasker 10) Biscuit
