10 Greatest Redskins You Saw Play
With 10 names being added to the Redskins Greatest list, who are the 10 greatest Redskins you ever saw play?
So remember, these are only players that you actually saw playing while they were active NFL players (live or on tv) So, Mooby you can't pick Sammy Baugh. And, even though I probably saw him, I was too young to remember Ken Houston so I can't pick him. Here's my 10: John Riggins Art Monk Darrell Green Jim Lachey Tony Banks Clinton Portis Russ Grimm Ken Harvey Dave Butz Gary Clark

Re: 10 Greatest Redskins You Saw Play
I couldn't really think of a 10th....so I threw in John Riggins
 Seriously though, narrowing it down to 10 was actually a bit harder than I expected

Damnit, how'd you know I was going to pick Sammy Baugh? My list is going to be pretty weak now.

Re: 10 Greatest Redskins You Saw Play
Getting down to 10 was tough. Especially for us ancient guys. You really have 3 time frames to choose from - the early Allen era, the Gibbs era and the Snyder era. I could (and did) get 10 from each easily. It's hard to compare in some ways. Ken Houston and Sean Taylor? Kilmer was one of my favorites - still remember seeing him play with blood all over his face and throwing wobbly ducks to C. Taylor. Then the modern era guys - lots of great players Samuels, Taylor, Portis, Fletcher ... Here then is my stab at it. B/c I have so many players to choose from, I added an additional restriction in that they had to be players I saw live (went to my first game in 73 so Jurgenson and Huff are off the list):
Charley Taylor Ken Houston Chris Hanburger J. Riggins R. Grimm J. Jacoby Art Monk S. Taylor Chris Samuels Darrell Green
