All Time? Why not just go to the NFL HOF? It's a virtual "Who's who" of 1AA or FCS players.

You got Payton and Rice. Also

Mel Blount
John Stallworth
Jackie Slater
Willie Brown
Charlie Joiner
Ken Houston
Buck Buchannon
Aneas Williams(sp?)
Deacon Jones
Howie Long

Just to name a few.....

Yes, because he's done so much in the NFL! Send him to Canton! And on the third day God created Carson Wentz!

Just out of curiosity, did you habitually get your little ass kicked by a red-headed kid when you were young?

Were you born without a sense of humor, or did you slowly lose it over time?

Not if you talk to Falcons fans...They hated him last year, even though he was thrown into a starting spot he never played before in the Pros. I think he did great for having 2 weeks to learn how to play center in the NFL

Cortland Finnegan, NFL since 2006, all-pro 1st team and pro bowler

Can we talk about how impressive it is that Brandon Fisher is already coaching a secondary in the NFL 4 years after playing. Seems to me he'll be a head coach eventually at a very young age based on this.

I think he's had a little help[emoji57]

Maybe he would've done it his own. Either way he's holding his own and that's saying something.

Sure maybe he had some help, but you could also argue its an advantage that he grew up around the game eating, sleeping, and breathing football
