The most spectacular back of all-time was Gayle Sayers, but unfortunately injuries shortened his career. But he was simply amazing to watch.

Randy Moss is still a kid.

Gale Sayers - kickoff return specialist

Surely he was the most exciting runner ever to play the game.

Tom Brady is clearly beginning to earn a spot on that list.

No LT on the Linebackers list?

I'd move Montana ahead of Marino.

I love Dick Butkus - I heard him say one time that he always had a dream that he hit someone so hard it knocked their head off and it rolled down the field !!!!

How could you leave off LT for linebacker?

Add Raymond Berry to your receiver list. Ran the most precise routes in the game.

Marino #2? Come on now. Maybe in terms of pure talent, but he never won a championship.

Who would you startin a Superbowl (assuming a player in their prime)? For me it would be:

Montana
Bradshaw
Elway
Starr
Brady
Staubach

WRT to Running Backs, Emmit needs to be at the top of that list.

Moss will never be one of the greatest. For all his talent he lacks one thing that Rice and Maynard (and many others) have/had: class.
