aaron schobel
derrick burgess
andre carter

Marcellus Wiley told a funny story about him on the radio. Said they use to call him robocop cuz of how big he was. And tgey they made the robocop walking sound whenever he was around. Said that n1gga use to have like a 100 vitamins() before each meal. Said one time the coach just called him over and told him to go inside and get off the field cuz he was too big.

He said everytime an athlete say he's taking Vitamins he thinks of roided up David Boston.

Forgotten according to whom? I recognize and remember almost all of these names.

thats a good question. I personally listed some players I thought no one really brings up when talking about that era. either they were underrated or quickly forgotten (like david boston, even shaun alexander), or both.

I didn't want to be a homer and mention those guys but you left out out linebackers Jamie sharper and Peter boulware too.

Jamie left for the Texans cause he thought he was as big/better than Ray right? I know the ravens had a tooooough salary cap situation with all those stars on the defensive side of the ball.

Trent Dilfer is the luckiest SOB ever

I think they took him in the expansion draft. Yeah there were so many guys to pay. I mean when you can name all 11 starters on defense and knew all of them were playing a vital role, it just can't last long in football, especially when some are just role players and the free safety is a 14 year veteran.

JP Losman

This feels like something @Sausageman would say, with that Bargnani stanning and always arguing to have JR smith and Nick young as the starting wings

 

[tru_m.a.c]

even Seahawk fans prob dont even remember this dude anymore

Was a great player when healthy.

Where do the broken down football players go.

He didn't get run out of the league because of injuries. He got ran out of the league for looking big but playing soft. Mike Holmgren pretty much threw him to the wolves and let a bunch of rumors fly.

Dante Hall really fits the bill IMO, it was like he came out of nowhere and then fell off just as quick

Kevin Curtis
Reuben Droughns

does Reuben count? Didn't he get hot during the phase when the broncos were turning bus boys into 1000 yrd rushers?
