No. 81 | Tim Brown
The Heisman Trophy-winner (1987) out of Notre Dame led the NFL
in kick return yardage as a rookie with the Raiders.
Brown wrapped up his 17-year career in 2004,
ranked second all-time in receiving yardage (14, 934) and third in catches (1.094).
Runner-up : Art Monk.
Worthy of consideration : Dick "Night Train" Lane.
No. 82 | Raymond Berry
Elusive, precise Hall of Fame wideout was Colts quatterback
John Unitas' favorite target from 1956-67, leading the NFL in receptions four times.
Set NFL title game records with 12 catches for 178 yards in 1958.
Runner-up : John Stallworth.
Worthy of consideration : Ozzie Newsome.
No. 83 | Ted Hendricks
Hall of Fame linebacker got the nickname Mad Stork for his gangly frame (6-7, 220-pounds).
An eight-time Pro Bowl selection who blocked 25 field goals
during his 15-season career with the Colts and Raiders,
Hendricks played in 215 consecutive games and four Super Bowls.
Runner-up : Mark Clayton.
Worthy of consideration : John Jefferson, Andre Reed.
No. 84 | Shannon Sharpe
Motor-mouthed member of the Broncos (12 seasons) and Ravens (two),
Sharpe earned first-team NFL All-Decade honors for the 1990s.
The eight-time Pro Bowl pick is the league's all-time leader
in receptions (815), yards (10,060) and TDs (62) by a tight end.
Runner-up : Sterling Sharpe.
Worthy of consideration : Randy Moss.
No. 85 | Jack Youngblood
Hall of Fame defensive end was a seven-time Pro Bowl pick
in 14 seasons with the Los Angeles Rams (1971-84).
Tough and durable, he played 201 straight games
-- and all of Super Bowl XIV despite a broken left leg.
Runner-up : Nick Buoniconti, Mark Duper, Henry Ellard.
No. 86 | Buck Buchanan
The first player drafted by the AFL
-- he went to the K.C. Chiefs in 1963 out of Grambling --
the fast, ferocious 6' 7", 270-pound Hall of Fame defensive tackle swatted down 16 passes in 1967 and later played in two Super Bowls.
Runner-up : Hines Ward.
No. 87 | Dwight Clark
Two-time Pro Bowl wideout hauled in 506 passes during his nine-seasons with the 49ers,
none more memorable than The Catch
-- his leaping end-zone grab with 51 seconds left that beat Dallas
in the 1981 NFC Championship Game.
Runner-up : Dave Casper.
Worthy of consideration : Sidney Crosby, Willie Davis, Lionel Taylor.
No. 88 | Alan Page
Hall of Fame defensive tackle was a mainstay of the Vikings' feared
Purple People Eaters defense.
Page played in four Super Bowls and was the NFL MVP in 1971
as well the Defensive Player of Year in `71 and `73.
Runner-up : Marvin Harrison.
Worthy of consideration: Lynn Swann, Eric Lindros, Michael Irvin, Dale Jarrett.
No. 89 | Mike Ditka
Hardnosed tight end helped revolutionize his position by
making a then-record 75 receptions for the Bears in 1964.
The five-time Pro Bowl pick was the first tight end inducted into
the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Runner-up : Gino Marchetti.
He and Chiefs teammate Derrick Thomas combined to form one of
the most devastating pass rushing duos in NFL history.
(Smith famously swung a baseball bat after the sacking the quarterback,
a tribute to fellow Kansas city icon George Brett.)
Late in his career he left for rival Denver,
where he went on to win a pair of Super Bowl titles.
He finished with 86.6 career sacks.
Runner-up : Bob Kurland.
Worthy of consideration : Jevon Kearse, George Webster.
My Comment : 역시 예상대로 NFL 스타들이 랭킹의 전부를 차지해버렸군요.
그나마 MLB와 NHL 그리고 NBA에서 NFL을 저지해왔던 힘도 빠져버렸나봅니다.
그리고 또 하나!
86번의 후보로 올랐던 하인스 워드도 아쉽게 탈락해버렸군요.
이로써 한국인 선수들이 CNNSI의 선정에서 백넘버를 차지할 일말의 가능성도 사라져버렸습니다.
애니웨이...이제 마지막 선수들이 남았군요. 거의 끝나갑니다. ㅋㅋ
