redsoxsuck05 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The Raiders have so many better candidates than Charles Woodson lol. Stabler, Allen, Tim Brown, Willie Brown, Upshaw, Long, Wisniewski, Biletnekoff, Mad Bomber, Otto, Shell Woodson was hurt or old for half his time with Raiders and had his best years with the Packers. I get that he’s a beloved HOFer, but he benefits from being one of the few respectable players from this franchise since 2002. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would like to add another and that's Larry Allen who was arguably the most dominant lineman of all time. How about Herschel Walker? He was arguably a player who helped your franchise more than anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that he’s a beloved HOFer, but he benefits from being one of the few respectable players from this franchise since 2002. Whenever I think of the Raiders the two players that come instantly to mind are Ken Stabler and Fred Biletnikoff. On the defensive side of the ball, it's definitely Lyle Alzado. I don't know if he was the best player, but to this outsider, he absolutely personified what it meant to be an Oakland Raider - mean and nasty.

Titans_Matt Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) I'll try to list the answer, then a runner up, since a lot are so close: Arizona Cardinals-Larry Fitzgerald then Aeneas Williams Atlanta Falcons-Deion Sanders then Michael Vick Baltimore Ravens-Ray Lewis then Jonathan Ogden (man I wanna put Ed Reed on here so bad though) Buffalo Bills-Bruce Smith then OJ Simpson Carolina Panthers-Julius Peppers then Steve Smith Chicago Bears-Walter Payton then D*ck Butkus Cincinnati Bengals-Anthony Munoz then Chad Johnson Cleveland Browns-Jim Brown then Otto Graham Dallas Cowboys-Larry Allen then Roger Staubach (sorry to Bob Lilly) Denver Broncos-Champ Bailey then Shannon Sharpe Detroit Lions-Barry Sanders then Night Train Lane (I think NTL was the best CB to ever play so this was tough) Green Bay Packers-Don Hutson then Forrest Gregg Houston Texans-JJ Watt then Andre Johnson Indianapolis Colts-Peyton Manning then Johnny Unitas Jacksonville Jaguars-Tony Boselli then Fred Taylor Kansas City Chiefs-Tony Gonzalez then Bobby Bell LA Chargers-Junior Seau then Ladanian Tomlinson (hurts me not to put Kellen Winslow here) LA Rams Deacon Jones then Eric Dickerson Miami Dolphins-Dan Marino then Larry Little Minnesota Vikings-Randy Moss then Alan Page (an argument could be made for either of these two guys to be number 1) New England Patriots-Tom Brady then John Hannah New Orleans Saints-Drew Brees then Willie Roaf New York Giants-Lawrence Taylor then Emlen Tunnell (sorry Mel Hein) New York Jets-Darrelle Revis then Curtis Martin Oakland Raiders-Gene Upshaw then Willie Brown Philadelphia Eagles-Reggie White then Chuck Bednarik Pittsburgh Steelers-Joe Greene then Rod Woodson San Francisco 49ers-Jerry Rice then Joe Montana Seattle Seahawks-Walter Jones then Steve Largent Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Derrick Brooks then Warren Sapp Tennessee Titans-Bruce Matthews then Earl Campbell Washington Redskins-Ken Houston then Sammy Baugh (wish I could put Houston on the Titans/Oilers but he played longer for the Redskins) This was actually pretty fun reminiscing like this Edited December 17, 2019 by Titans_Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't argue with someone who thought Tomlinson was their best, but I think you're underrating Lance Alworth. He was on my top ten WRs of all time list, and while I haven't thought about it for awhile, he probably still is, I'll say at #7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bad Example Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 On 12/12/2019 at 12:47 PM, Calvert28 said: Allen was criminally underrated throught his career. He was a 6 time All-Pro and made the HoF in his 2nd yr eligible (this is a big deal because OGs are right there with S as positions that the HoF doesn't value). I saw pre-draft write-ups on him and he was often referred to as the best G if not OL in the game. I think he was properly rated through his career.
