        Maybe Cookie.

        He did only play for the Bills for three seasons.

            I was too young to remember OJ, so any list I make has to be of players I have seen play. Yes there were great Bills players form them 60's and 70's, but since my first memory is from about 1982 thats where I will start.

                that's about right for me too. not sure about Moulds at 5 tho.
                My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

                  It's either O.J. or Bruce at the top, with Kelly or anyone else a distant 3rd.

                  O.J. was the best player in football by a country mile for a 5 year stretch. You had to see this guy in person to believe how freakin' good he was.

                  Bruce goes without saying.

                        Cornelius Bennett is always a guy who gets lost when talking about great LBs. I watched an old Bills game a few months ago, and he made other guys look like they were playing in slow-motion. Just unbelievable lateral movement and nose for the ball.

                          Not to quibble, but it is actually H. Preston Ridelhuber.

                          Few will ever forget that drawn in the dirt option pass that was supposed to go to the tight end, but H. Preston, (in for Max Anderson, whose teeth lie shattered on the War Memorial Stadium turf), and always the opportunist, threw deep to Haven Moses for the touchdown.

                          Got me a Spaulding J5V with the Al Davis sig after an extra point that game.
                          Das right. No nets then.
                          Took a few body blows on the way down from my jump, but none the worse for wear.

                          Ah the memories- and here's the proof- at the 1:25 or so mark!

                          Even a youthful Charlie Jones forgets the H in H. Preston.

                          Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

                              Great story.

                              This is why we love the Bills, is it not?

                              They are a big part of our lives.
