Remove Fred Thomas' name from this list. He played terrific ball for us for 3 yrs before his decline.

I don't know if this would be allowed in the rules, but when Jabari Greer and Tracy Porter were on the field together, at the same time, they were elite. When one would go out with injury, the other would decline but on the field together at the same time, they had incredible type shutdown numbers/abilities, for a stretch there.

Ah, the days of Tommy Myers and Joe Federspiel. Awful teams. Myers should be on the list, though. Sam Mills, Ricky Jackson, and Demario Davis are the starting linebackers for me. No one read offenses like Sam Mills.

Sam Mills - MLB
Ricky Jackson - LB
Demario Davis - LB
Cameron Jordan - DE
Pat Swilling - LB, but put him anywhere, he’ll get to the QB.
Wayne Martin - DT/DE
Jim Wilks - NT/DE
Frank Warren - DT/DE
Will Smith - DE
Darren Sharper - FS
Sammy Knight - SS
Dave Waymer - CB
Tommy Myers - CB

The best defensive player is probably tied with Bress for being the greatest Saint of all time

Ricky Jackson... I love Cam.. but him and Ricky shouldn’t be mentioned in the same sentence
