re: The Five Best You've Ever Seen (WR, RB, QB) (Don't Include Redskins)

QB:
1. Montana
2. Peyton Manning
3. Marino
4. Brady
5. Favre / Elway (tie)

RB:
1. Payton
2. Emmitt
3. Earl Campbell
4. Sanders
5. Simpson

WR:
1. Rice
2. Moss
3. Harrison
4. Tim Brown
5. T.O.

Cool thread. I believe Montana was the greatest football player of all time, and clearly my top QB. In the Emmitt / Barry debate, I'm probably in the minority, but I would take Emmitt every time since Barry often put his offense in a lot of 3-and-outs by losing 5 yards on first down dancing for the home run, whereas Emmitt would turn a 1 yard play into 3-4 yards by running much more decisively. Payton was probably a better blocker and receiver than both, so I give him the nod as the best RB that I saw. Rice is peerless at WR.
