    Hollings cost a second if I recall. Sorry Green is still the worst. Completely unplayable top half of the first round pick over an obvious all pro safety. Who the heck chooses a guard in the top 15 picks unless you absolutely know for sure he’s a stud???

    Really praying that Ersery is him, after Green, Scruggs, and Fisher not a lot of hope in or OL evaluation.

    Okoye might be worse.

    Christian Okoye was a legend and an all pro. I don’t know who this other Okoye is you speak of.

    I am still disgusted that Texans drafted Amobi right before Patrick Willis

    No idea why I just thought of him/this, but Pat Fischer was a gritty little b*stard who was fun as hell to watch (only highlights). I remember NFL Films did an episode of him locked up with Harold Carmichael, who was about 6'8"

    I remember my dad saying "if you're gonna play in the backfield, play like that guy"

    Lott and Atwater were awesome. Add Larry Wilson to the list, but might have been before you youngsters time.
