Who is on your Redskins Mt Rushmore?

Great post. While I'm aware how great Baugh was, and I'm sure he'd be on the organizations Mt Rushmore for sure, but I never saw him play. So MY 4 would be Gibbs, Riggins, Theismann, and Green.

Joe Gibbs +...

I'd go with Gibbs, Baugh, Green, and Sean Taylor.

Gibbs - duh

Baugh - I read an article on him a couple years ago that really put his greatness in perspective for the era he played in. It's not this one (http://www.espn.com/sportscentury/features/00014080.html) but this was the closest I could find to it. He was putting up numbers back then that would be impressive today. Overall, he's probably the best player ever in Redskins history.

Green - I only got to see his last couple of seasons, and back then I didn't even understand football that well. But the longevity and the standard he set every year will be hard to duplicate.

Sean Taylor - I had to include somebody from my generation, and he's the obvious pick. 2006 notwithstanding (which was a bad year for the defense in general) 04, 05, and his legit All-Pro half a season in 2007 (which I think probably stood our best chance at securing a first team All-Pro in the last 20 years) he was the best player on our team. His physical attributes were off the charts, and in 2007 when it all clicked mentally I firmly believed we were witnessing his ascension in the Reeds/Polamalu's of the time. Watch Greg Williams marvel at his 2 pick game against Brett Favre (one of which he had to cover so much ground nobody even thought it would be a pick), hell, go back to his rookie season denying Randy Moss on a deep jump ball (how many guys could do that?) and tell me I'm crazy. My favorite player to ever put on a Redskins uni, and he definitely deserves a spot on my Redskins Mt. Rushmore.

In ten years: chase young, Haskins, Scary Terry and Gibbs

Who do you leave off for Monk

We are going to need more mountains.

I was wondering what Redskin had a nickname of hamburger, the closest thing I could think of was pot roast. I even tried googling. Then the mystery was solved, the "m" needs to be an "n".


it was suppose to be chris ..

thanks

Who do you leave off for Monk


+1 art monk here too

So I think another question to ask is to list one or a few of your favorite players that would never make the Mt Rushmore, or maybe not even the Redskins Ring of Honor...for your own personal reasons...and mine would be Santana Moss...just always loved that dude's play and heart...especially in his early years with us.
