Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
I'm still seeing the LB poll, but when I can vote it will be for Mann. He was a complete player. Manley got the headlines and was flashier, but give me Mann any day.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
Wasn't just headlines and flash. Dexter's 90+ sacks still rank the most among any man who wore the burgundy and gold.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
Manley was a heck of a pass rusher no doubt, but he wasn't as stout against the run as Mann was. And Mann was a pretty good pass rusher himself.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
Judging by the thread title, it will have to be some dude named Ned

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
I vote for Flanders
And Charles Mann, one of my favorite people. Extremely underrated player. And the guy who helped get us Tony McGee to be a regular contributor on the Warpath

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
Love Charles Mann but I'm going with Dexter Manley. He hated Dallas and put their QB's where they belong. On their ass. Of course I wouldn't mind Mann either, great player and one of the classiest guys to ever play.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
My vote is for Charles Mann. Put up very good sack totals from LDE. Complete LDEs who can rush the passer and shut down the run are few and far between. Great team leader also. 4 Pro Bowls, 2 SBs. Manley, while putting up dynamic sack totals for a 4 year stint, only reached 1 Pro Bowl. While not suspect against the run, wasn't as consistent or solid as Mann. Brito earned 5 Pro Bowls and 3 All-Pros, but tackle and sack numbers weren't kept back then and I've never heard of him prior to this poll.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE NED
Since a team needs two defensive ends, let me vote for Charles Mann and Gene Brito.
Charles Mann needs no introduction to the folks here. Gene Brito may need some introduction... Here is a stat on Brito that was given to me by a pro football writer whose work has been recognized by the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton: Gene Brito was never called for a 15-yard penalty in his entire career in the NFL. [Back then; all penalties were 5 yards or 15 yards or "spot of the foul".]He played 6 or 7 years with the Skins in the 1950s and then played for the Rams for another year - - maybe another 2 years? He died back in the 60s at a very early age. In his 6 or 7 years with Washington, he went to the Pro Bowl 5 times. He also played tight end for the Redskins.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Series: DEFENSIVE END
I'm going with Gene Brito. That guy was a menace, one of the best DE's to play for any team during the 50's.
I also give props to Mann - good player, good human being.
