Ralph Brown, who was arguably worse than Ray Mickens and Hank Poteat put together.

There were a few favorites on the O-line:
Paul Zukauskas - the early OG hope
Hank Fraley, who stepped up excellently after Bentley went down and I believe his wife was around on the board for a while
Ryan Tucker who was easily our best O-lineman before Thomas came around

I'd actually say that Ralph Brown may have been the worst cornerback I've ever actually seen play. Couldn;t tackle, couldn;t cover- ugh... long days when he was playing.

Nick Speegle was probably my all-time favorite no-name cleveland brown. People just salivated over him because we had just moved to the 3-4 and he was physically just a prototype OLB.

Except for, you know, the whole ability part.

The number of people that were waiting for Speegle to come into his own was downright hysterical.

by Canada above:

"Babatunde Oshinowo"

That's: Babatunde Oluwasegun Temitope Oluwakorede Adisa Oshinowo, Jr to his friends.

I'm looking for one of his #96 jerseys if anybody's got one.

And yet, many people loved him.
