27. Dick Schafrath

One of the main roles of an Offensive Lineman is to create holes for Running Backs.  The Cleveland Browns of the 1960s had some of the best runners and Dick Schafrath was a big reason that they found as much opportunity to run as they did.

164. Roger Brown

It is alleged that Roger Brown was the first legitimate 300 pounder in the National Football League.  Nowadays, this is commonplace, but it was Brown who proved that a much larger man could be very much athletic.  It is also amazing that someone so big could be forgotten so quick.

81. Karl Mecklenburg

We would love to make a case for Karl Mecklenburg just for his nickname of the “Albino Rhino” but we have always been a sucker for colorful (or in this case not so colorful) nicknames.

79. Chuck Foreman

Chuck Foreman was called the “Spin Doctor”, but it was not due to his ability to spin his words.  It was due to the way that he could spin his body around would-be tacklers.
