With all due respect to the many great Running Backs that the Pittsburgh Steelers had, they are all in line behind Franco Harris, who is still the team’s all-time leading rusher.

After being drafted in the Fifth Round in 1974, Mike Webster worked on Special Teams, Center and Guard in his first two seasons, contributing to the Steelers in little ways while helping them win their first two Super Bowls.  What followed was one of the greatest runs ever by an NFL Center.

The Steelers had already put together a powerful defensive corps before they used their Second Round Pick in 1974 to take Jack Lambert, the MAC Defensive Player of the Year two years before.

When many publications or blogs come up with "Mean" Joe Greene as the greatest Pittsburgh Steeler of all-time, they seem to make the selection seem so any. We came up with Greene as our top player in franchise history, but it was a struggle with many legends who could have easily been placed at number one.  One thing above all else, though, is when you think of what embodies a Steeler, it is hard to come up with a better man than Greene.
