davefan66 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 ????????? You can pick the obvious: Gilchrest, Fergy, Kelly, Thomas, Reed, Smith, Moulds, Evans, or McGahee (just kidding). I would pick Fred Smerlas. He is probably my favorite based on he played for poor teams and always gave his best. Even though some of his teams were terrible, you could always count on Freddy to give his best, couple that with how he played with the "Bermuda Triangle", and you got one heck of a Nose Tackle. Love how he was outspoken and rowdy in his heyday. Always ready to speak his mind and tell it like it was (is). He also was kinda a bridge from the good teams of the early 80's to the Kelly, Thomas, Reed and Smith days. Not an obvious choice, and one that will probably be slammed here, but take it for what it's worth.
damj Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Talley ... He gave you 100% all of the time ... unsung player on a team of superstars. Spielman ... loved football so much he would play for free in a gravel parking lot ... classic throw back player. Gibram Hamdan ... for the chroise! lol ... err ... maybe not.
damj Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Bruce Smith I think everyone knows why.... Sleep apnea?
SKOOBY Posted March 22, 2009 Author Posted March 22, 2009 Pete Metz........ best TE we ever had and always was ready to catch the rock. Wish we had someone like that now on our team.
SouthGeorgiaBillsFan Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I have to go with Steve Tasker or Don Bebe. Don Bebe because though he wasn't the threat teams worried about stopping, he was the threat that most frequently took advantage of cheating defenses when it mattered most =D. And I love watching white dudes burn mofos deep.
Griff28 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Bruce. Simply the best Bill at his position. Amazing to watch.

tennesseeboy Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Jim Kelly. 4 superbowls, leadership, matured into a great member of community. I really worked hard to find someone else I would be comfortable voting for because he is such an obvious pick...but I guess he's obvious for a reason.

Kelly is a strong choce ... I like that you mentioned how he matured into a member of the community.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 I'm too young to have solid memories of any truly great Bills, so I guess I'll just say Marshawn.

basskik11 Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Darryl Talley. Tough as nails, wore his heart on his sleeve. The best leader in Buffalo Bills history. He's my favorite.
