Henry Jones was a terrific safety and mainstay of the 90s Bills defenses, and Cribbs was awesome — maybe THE original dual-threat RB — but I gotta go with (my man) Robert James at #20. 2X all-pro and absolute sticky shutdown corner, James was at his peak (maybe on way to HOF) when he wrecked his knee in ‘74.

He really didn’t. In fact, not even close.

 

You want to debate who is the best 20 in Bills history, Robert James should be in the mix. He was an absolute stud at CB in the early to mid 70’s. And to think he was a DE in college.

 

40 should be Robb Riddick.

 

48 should be Rosie Leaks.

Cribbs was great in 80 and 81. But his career was too short with the Bills. Then Ralph didn't want to pay him and off to the USFL he went if I remember correctly.

It's a surprisingly solid list.  I was wondering what number I should take when the Bills sign me as the NFL's oldest FA (a mere 64).   Seems my chances of being the best at any jersey number are pretty slim but Carwell Gardner might be the weak link.

Uhhh #3 is Damar Hamlin and was the next highest selling jersey besides Josh Allen I believe 

This list is about on field performance, not jersey sales. I dont know much about Gogolak as he was well before muly time but pretty sure he changed the game with his style of kicking and did it in Buffalo first. Also I see he went to pro bowl here for the 65 season.

I don't know about that, Henry has what, 11 kids with as many women ...

Looking at a lot of these names, this is more of a list of "guys who had this number" as opposed to "best guy to have this number" with obvious exceptions.

Robert James > Cribbs + Jones combined.
