46. Brandon Mebane

Brandon Mebane did not have a career that stood out, but not every football player needs to be a superstar.  He was solid and dependable, and every football player needs glue guys like Mebane.

The Defensive Tackle started 10 of his 16 Games in his 2007 rookie year, and he would remain a starter until he left the team for the San Diego Chargers after the 2015 season.  A key member of Seattle’s Super Bowl Championship Team, Mebane was a well-balanced player who had 15 Sacks and 349 Tackles with the Seahawks. 

Mebane might not have been a member of Seattle's "Legion of Boom," but he was arguably an honorary colleague of the group, who played in front of them for years.
