    Scott Dierking- Best "move the sticks" back we've ever had.
    Freeman McNeil - Most underrated RB according to SI.
    Wesley Walker - And he's legally blind in one eye.
    Klecko - no comment necessary.
    James Hasty - Great CB, left for the chiefs like everyone else.

    Honorable mention to Pat Leahy, John Roman and Jeff Lageman, mostly because I met them all in bars.

    Amen. If we're counting coaches Parcells tops my list.

    Favorite player is C Martin, also loved Bryan Cox, Victor Green and Mo Lewis.

    I can't believe I'm the only one who loved Jumbo Elliot. He would hold Bruce Smith to ZERO sacks BY HIMSELF, while the rest of the league had to double team him...Tackles just don't get credit...

    I hate to be remiss - but I want to say I also liked among my favorites:

    Clark Gaines - RB
    Larry Keller - LB but special teams crazy
    Shane Burton - DT - the guy put his hands up and blocked passes!
    Chad Cascadden - LG - he made big plays
    Derrick Gaffney - WR - underrated other side of Walker - great hands
    Ed Galigher - DL - played inside and outside, tough player
    Johnny Hector - RB - did it all for some not so great teams
    Jerry Holmes - CB - solid for a franchise with weak CB's before him
    Kerry Jenkins - OL - not much talent, all hard work
    Johnny Lynn - DB - solid and dependable
    Ed Marinaro - RB - met him last year, very nice guy
    Burgess Owens - S - cool classy player and leader
    "Touchdown" Tony Paige - RB - always made the tough yards
    Lawrence Pillars - DE - quiet class performer
    Chuck Ramsey - P - one of the only dependable ones in team history
    Pat Ryan - QB - sat on the bench, came off and won
    Gerald Sowell - FB - blocker and receiver
    Shafer Suggs - SS - a pro's pro
    Al Toon - WR - would have been in the HOF without the concussions
    Dedric Ward - WR - home run threat beat the Dolphins often
    Dwayne "Duck" White - G - Road Grader

    Ohh this is going to be hard.


    1. Ken O'brien. There is a lot to be said for schoolboy icons and he was mine.
    2. Waybe Chrebet. Great hands and a great heart. A true fairytale story.
    3. Curtis Martin The best player in my list by a long shot. Such a great example.
    4. Keyshawn Johnson. He left under a cloud, but he was a great receiver.
    5. Aaron Glenn. He had the skills and was gutted when he left.


    Honourable mentions:

    Mo Lewis
    Al Toon
    Mark Gastineau
    Joe Kleko
    Richie Anderson
    Victor Green
    Kevin Mawae
