cattleman78 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Died at age 84. I remember watching him play. I was against trading him to Washington but we had Jim Brown. Bobby was a member of the pro football hall of fame. He was a star for both Cleveland and Washington. R.I.P. Bobby. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaWg_LB. Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I missed this Post last week...... Pop's DaWg_Lb. was friendly with him back in the day. They played Football against each other at Rival HS's. He said even from their ages as kids you could tell something special about this guy, not only on the field, but off the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They traded him to draft Earnie Davis who had broken most of Jimmy Brown's records at Syracuse. You know how that turnrd out. But then came along Leroy Kellly, the best runner ever in rain, mud and snow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgpoun8017 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Had Ernie Davis not gotten sick I think he would be rivaling Jim Brown as the greatest running back in NFL History Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
