21. Steve Tasker
Without question, Steve Tasker is the most famous (and best) Special Teams player in Buffalo Bills history.  Tasker was not a large man, but an exceptionally hard hitter and was known for forcing fumbles.  He was held in such high regard that he would make multiple Pro Bowls and was a Semi-Finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  

Although Canton eluded Tasker, he was inducted into the Bills Wall of Fame in 2007.
