RB-Jim Brown QB-John Elway WR-Jerry Rice TE-Tony Gonzalez CB-Deion Sanders LB-Ray Lewis S-Rod Woodson DE-Reggie White
I was mistaken... He is a cornerback (1981-85), safety (1985-90) and free safety (1990) in San Francisco 49ers, San Francisco, CA.
I can't tell if you're joking... Just a few of his stats/achievements (from wiki): 3 time MVP 8 time rushing champ 9 time pro bowl And most important...a member of the lacrosse hall of fame! (played at Syracuse) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Brown

When I think of old time football I think of Jim Brown. Helluva a guy, too. Father figure for a lot of misguided ghetto foo'z. Was in a shit load of movies as well.
Best running back? Bo Jackson Best Quarterback? Jonny Unitus Best Wide Receiver? Don Hutson Best TE? Tony Gonzalez Best Cornerback? Rod Woodson Best Linebacker? Dick Butkus Best Safety? Ronnie Lott Best Defensive End? Reggie White.
Bo? Seriously? Adrian Peterson in just his last 2 seasons has more rushing yards than Bo's career. More TDs. More catches last season than Bo had in his career. More receving yards the past two years than Bo had in his career.
I saw Bo play. I saw Jim Brown, too. Brown was very fast and bigger than guys he played against. Bo was big, too, but not atypical of a FB or HB. He had speed that I can only describe as "don't blink or you'll miss how he ended up in the end zone." He was incredibly strong, too. Walter Payton was the best FOOTBALL PLAYER, period. The guy rushed for 2nd most yards for his career among them all, he was regarded as an elite blocker for a RB, he was the team's backup punter, and he was 3rd string QB. When he retired, he could have put on 20 pounds and played another 5 years as an elite FB. Steve Young gets my vote for best QB. The guy threw for 4000 yards twice and 3000 in 4 others (almost 4000 one of those). He also rushed for over 500 yards one season, and 400+ four other times. He had a great and accurate downfield arm. Jim Kelly deserves a mention - he guided his team to the SuperBowl 4 straight years, though they lost all 4 times. Troy Aikman, too - his teams simply won as they should have, no need to come from behind. DE - Bruce Smith. TE - Dave Casper. LB - Lawrence Taylor WR - Jerry Rice Safety - Paul Krause or Lott. CB - Deion Sanders

Best player I've ever seen run the ball (although Barry Sanders gets a nod for most "electryfying"). Pity his career was cut short with that hip.
