Even though all his positions were O-line, I'm really upset that not even a shout-out went to Bruce Matthews. The guy made the Pro Bowl at 4 different positions and he's a Hall of Famer.

I'm a GB Packer fan, but I remember NFL Films showing documentaries on Sat. My brother and I found ourselves sitting on the edge of the couch in the 1970's watching film of "Slingin' Sammy" Baugh, who ironically got his nickname from baseball, not football. He basically invented the passing game once it was legalized! Baugh played in the '30s and '40s and when he was interviewed, he was an OLD cowboy from TX. No one told Sammy that he wasn't supposed to "swear" or "cuss" on Nat'l TV. It was absolutely hillarious for 2 kids that were probably 10 and 6 yrs old! If it weren't for Sammy, football would be very different today. Slingin' Sammy IMHO is the GOAT!

Thusfar the limitation with basically every "slash" style players or the Wildcat or receivers who played QB in college is that while they are versatile you're still using a traditional QB who is not. I look forward to the day when an NFL offense gets two players like Stewart and Randel-El and starts both of them at the same time. Having two offensive players who are legitimate threats to run, pass, or catch on EVERY offensive play would be huge. If they both line up in the backfield which one is even going to take the snap? That will be revolutionary for the NFL.

When brees did it was easier than ever. That doesn't take anything away from Brees its still hard to complete 70% in the modern NFL but now its more possible to come close to that consistently with rule changes, offenses geared toward pass, Coaches gameplans being created to get passing lanes on 1st tier defenses plus recievers being faster, better sure handed getting open without getting mugged on everyplay like when Baugh played

AND YOU ARE ONLY HALFWAY DONE, these guys got oxygen after running a 60 yd TD, rotate the entire line in some cases, and get paid 1 million to play a game! YOUR TEAM had them guys and you dont even know it....Bednarik played ENTIRE GAME FOR 14 YEARS? And you got Mike Vrabel on here for lining up 8 times on offense getting put here? OK he can catch a TD, but ALL TIME in the hist of NFL? Dig Deeper NFL and teach the people. Im glad they showed some good picks though. Thats Versatile and some nut on here had the IQ to call him salty? He got paid probably 50k a yr and did that plus is in the HOF. My Grandpop made 80k down the longshore in 72. EDIT Bednarik's first pro contract was for $10,000 with a $3,000 signing bonus. His salary peaked at $22,000 before he retired in 1962. One year his contract included a clause for a $1,000 bonus "if Bednarik has a good year and plays both offense and defense." And that nut called him salty? Id say the same thing. I say it now how the game is turning into a pussy league. No kickoffs? wtf?

Walter Payton came in as an emergency QB for Da Bears 🐻 at least once or twice during his career, and Randall Cunningham once had a 90+ yard punt. Both of those guys were very versatile, too. And Danny White was the Cowboys’ punter for a long time. He deserves a mention.

Versatile doesn't necessarily mean multiple positions. Walter Payton as a running back was the Bears all time leader in both rushing and receiving yards. He could throw the ball as well as any quarterback in the league. On top of that he was probably the best blocking halfback in NFL history. If that's not versatility, what is?

How Steve Tasker didn't get in this list? He was a WR who eventually got a chance to be a dependable WR, yet her was the BEST Special Teams player in NFL history. He was perhaps the best open field tackler in the game a a Gunner, he blocked FGs/Punts, was gimmick RB, and contributed as a KR/PR. How WASN'T he on this list? A travesty that he's not on this list.

I like how special historic moments in nfl history have a lot of minor notes Troy brown was a versatile player who could play some defense He forces the fumble against the chargers in the 07 playoffs The chargers were coached by Marty Schottenheimer and it’s seen as another Marty choke I also think about how Don Beebe’s fumble on Leon Lett was a touchback because it was fumbled out of the end zone While there’s a lot of critique of that rule, I don’t think the play would feel as good if the cowboys just got the ball at the 10 or 1
