1. Hank Aaron

We need to bring this up as much as we can…

Regardless of the era Hank Aaron is one of the greatest baseball players that ever existed. 

Period. 

A Super Bowl Champion in his rookie season (although he did not do that much), Ed Podolak would work his way to become a dependable cog of the Kansas City offense.  Podolak was a dual-threat Running Back who would rush for 4,451 Yards and catch another 288 passes for 2,456 Yards contributing 40 Touchdowns in total in his career, which were all spent in Kansas City.  When he wasn’t on offense he was used on Special Teams where he would use his athleticism to become an adept returner who in 1970 was the league leader in All-Purpose Yards.

An original Dallas Texan, Chris Burford would lead the American Football League in Touchdown catches in 1962, the final season that the Chiefs played in Texas and it was also a championship year.  Burford would actually finish in the top ten in the American Football League in Receptions seven out of his eight seasons and was also in the top ten in Receiving Yards five times.  The 1962 AFL First Team All-Pro retired with 55 Touchdowns on 391 Receptions for 5,505 Yards.  He would later be an early inductee to the Chiefs Hall of Fame, entering in 1975.

If our list of Top 50 Kansas City Chiefs were to be based on the excitement they brought onto the field then Dwayne Bowe would be in the top five, but as such, this is a pretty solid ranking for the dynamic Wide Receiver.
