Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our pre-2021 revision of our top 50 Washington Football Team of all-time.

As for all of our top 50 players in football we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the NFL. 

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

This is our first revision after our inaugural unveiling, only one new entry.

As always, we present our top five here.

1. Sammy Baugh

2. Darrell Green

3. Chris Hanburger

4. Charley Taylor

5. Art Monk

You can find the entire list here.

Right Guard, Brandon Scherff, is the lone debut, coming in at #48.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

From Russia, Dmitri Kalinin was a First Round Pick in 1998 and was a regular blueliner for the Sabres two years later.

It is not typical for a hockey player to have his best season as a rookie, especially for non-Goalies, but this is the case for Defenseman Tyler Myers.

From Finland, Christian Ruuttu was a late-round pick in the 1983 Draft, and three years later, he debuted in the NHL, finishing sixth in Calder voting with a 65-Point season.

Ruuttu’s second season saw the Center reach career-highs with 26 Goals and 71 Points, and he was a surprise All-Star Selection.  Over the next two years, Ruuttu had an even 60 Points, though he dropped to 50 and 25 in the years afterward.  The Finnish star was dealt to the Winnipeg Jets after, with 331 Points for Buffalo.

While Ruuttu’s numbers are higher than many of the Sabres above him, it can’t be discounted that it happened during the high-scoring era of the 80s and early 90s.
