Great shot at a list, interesting however that you didn't find room for anyone from the 5 championship teams of the Lombardi era.
Given the changing eras add spots for the FB which was a significant position and the slot receiver in the current era.
I would also see a place for Gino Marchetti from the Colts, Dave Robinson Packers, Mel Blount Steelers, B Sanders of the Lions.
Jim Brown and Tom Brady are the best players I have seen in my life (going back to watching football since the late 50's.
I'm younger, so the older players are based on hearsay from my father (big OJ fan, football wise at least) and reputation. I know there are a lot of players who enjoy good reputations who were basically just solid members of fantastic teams (many of the Steelers come to mind, I always forget which of the Jacks was the really phenomenal one and which was merely good but gets overrated by history)
