In Bob Reynolds, we have another forgotten player from the 1960s, who was one of the best Offensive Lineman in Bowling Green history.

Taken in the Second Round in 1963, Reynolds became the starting Left Tackle for St. Louis in his second year.  While the Cardinals struggled in the '60s, Reynolds did not, impressing enough to go to the Pro Bowl three times (1966, 1968 & 1969).  He left for the Patriots in 1972, though he returned to St. Louis for one Game in 1973 and retired after the season.

Reynolds started 105 of his 122 Games with the Cards.

A football player rarely has three runs with a football team, but Karlos Dansby did just that with the Arizona Cardinals.

Dansby’s first stint in Arizona was his longest and most traditional, arriving as a 2^nd Round Pick in 2004.  Receiving All-Rookie honors, Dansby blossomed into a solid interior Linebacker who was capable of a big play at any time.  In 2008, Dansby had his first 100-Tackle plus year, which not coincidentally also saw the Cardinals make it to the Super Bowl.  After another year where he broke 100 Tackles, Dansby left for Miami but returned three years later in 2013, where he was a Second Team All-Pro and put up his best numbers in Tackles (129) as a Cardinal.

Dansby left again, this time with Cleveland as his landing spot. Furthermore, after three years, Dansby returned to the Cards for what was his final season in the NFL.  His overall metrics with Arizona saw the Linebacker net 776 Tackles and 33 Sacks.

Irv Goode was a beast at the University of Kentucky, which led to his high selection by the St. Louis Cardinals, who nabbed him 12^th Overall in 1961.  Goode accomplished a rare feat as a rookie, earning Rookie of the Year votes (4^th), and though St. Louis was not impressive in the 1960s, the versatile lineman (he played at Left Tackle, Left Guard, and Center) won Pro Bowl honors in both 1964 and 1967.

He would later win a Super Bowl in a reserve capacity with the Miami Dolphins at SB VIII.

A First Round Pick from Mississippi, Freddie Joe Nunn seemed to bounce from Defensive End to Linebacker depending on the need in his first nine years in the NFL as a Cardinal.

A really good player but never was named a Pro Bowler or All-Pro, Nunn was at his best as a pass rusher, as shown by his 14-Sack year in 1988, the first year of the Cards' relocation to the desert.  Had Nunn received a more defined and consistent role with the Cardinals and not endured legal issues (he was arrested multiple times), his profile in Cardinal history would be more significant.  It also did not help that the St. Louis/Phoenix were hardly world-beaters when he played there.  After nine seasons, Nunn departed for the Colts, where he played three years to close out his career.

Following Nunn's departure, he had the franchise record 66.5 Sacks, a record that stood until it was broken by Chandler Jones in 2021.
