Maybe flip some people but overall I'd agree. Ahman Green, Mike Brown, Trev Alberts and some others would be in the discussion.

Turner Gill was exciting back in the day. Ahman Green certainly was one of the best running backs we've ever had. Will Shields makes my top 10.

 
I put Glover even with Rodgers. Most amazing player I have ever seen. Small, fast, and never ending motor. Simply amazing against Brahaney. Beat him half to death. Number 1 against number 1, and it was not even close.

 
I know Rozier was incredible, but a guy that was only here two years kind of seems like he should be lower down on the list to me. I don't know.

 
I would put Tommie at #1 and Suh at #2. Tommie changed the QB game in college. Suh was just a man amongst boys. Just my opinion.

Here's a question - why, when we're talking about quarterbacks, are championships a humongous part of the equation as far as their greatness, but when we are talking about defensive tackles, for example, it doesn't seem to really matter?

It's a good question. I have no answer for it

he holds the NCAA record for career YPC I believe. Add a heisman and a 2500 yard season, I think you could make a case for him as number 1.

It isn't entirely fair, but it's just the way it is. QB's impact the game more than any other individual position on either side of the ball

 
Does anyone know how Bob Brown was when he was at NU? I don't know hear much about him beyond that he was a successful enough pro to get a bust in Canton. Was he a late bloomer?
