Gabe Northern...yes because I thought he was going to be a star when I watched him at LSU.

I was like 13 when he was drafted and gave him every benefit out a doubt because I was immature.

 

I'd excuse you, because I was an idiot when I was 13, too.

 

But this board doesn't even excuse 13 year old idiots. So you're not excused, you idiot.

...oops...NO disrespect to House Ballard, an 11th round pick.....for you youngins', the draft used to be SEVENTEEN rounds....1971 17th round pick, #441 was Don "The Human Bowling Ball" Nottingham from Kent State.....honorable Bills mention to the one and only.....Bennie Ricardo...........

I think of him as a very, very good player. I think if you polled Bills fans here or anywhere, Butler would (regrettably) not be in the top 20 or 30 all time Bills in a vote like that, even though he was great for a short time and had an unfortunate injury. Same with Romes who was one of the top 5 players at his position in all of football but younger Bills fans wouldn't think of him or even know of him.

Butler was most certainly a star on the team in his era.

 

As was Frank Lewis, to name another on your list of "non-stars".

A star on your team is different than a star player or a star in the league. Both were great players. Frank Lewis had star talent that was never given the accolades due, on either the Steelers or the Bills. Made incredible catches look routine. I was thinking more of players not given credit for being stars more than totally unsung guys that you liked, like Roland Hooks.
