Hopefully, in
color, or, for a CFL topic, in
colour. Crayola has a sale.

I disagree in some choices: Jamal Anderson 1998 season was the best by a RB in Falcons' history and I would elect him to the 1st team, but I know that Andrews and Riggs played with worse talent a found in their respective seasons and should be included (one more point to the HOF for Mike Kenn). Also, I would find a spot in the Honorable Mentions for Tony Martin and Terence Mathis in 1998 as WR.
Also is shocking to me that in 1980 Joel Williams wasn׳t even selected to the Pro Bowl or to an All-NFC team (he was a 2nd team All-Pro in 1982).

Fair enough. Resonable people can disagree===and I will add those guys as HM, as I read it the WR section is thin. I spent more words on the LBers.
As far as Anderson, you may be right, I could have that wrong. But I remember how tough a runner Andrews was, and how good a reciever, so maybe emotion got me there.

Teo, your comments make a lot of sense. I'd be interested in seeing your complete list.

I am also a big fan of Andrews. I remember vividly his rookie season when he was drafted with Lynn Cain and James Mayberry, I don't know if another team drafted three straight running backs ever.

William Andrews should have been one of the all-time greats. What a talent he was. I agree with Teo about Anderson's season being the best for a RB, but which one do you bump off to make room for him? Tough decision.
