nfl networks top 10 raiders of all time

1. Fred Biletnikoff
2. Ken Stabler
3. Gene Upshaw
4. Jim Otto
5. Marcus Allen
6. Art Shell
7. Willie Brown
8. Jim Plunkett
9. Lester Hayes
10. Tim Brown

its hard tomake alist like this. the raiders have had some of the greatest plyers in the nfl year after year. i dont know who i would take off but howie long should be on this list as well. the guy transformed the way defense was played. from play to play he would be on the line backing the line in the secondary on the left or roght. no one really did that until he came along. there are some great mean players on this list though and not enough of them in the hall of fame yet.

George Atkinson this guy is the raiders image come to life. he would send someone to the hospital, hurt them real bad on the field and then when asked he would call them soft and just rip into there toughness. i love this guys interviews.

I agree with all your points Hawk.
Being a long time Raider fan as well, I would take Plunkett down and move Howie in his place.

So many great raiders not on the list.
Cliff Branch
Dave Casper
Ray Guy
Mark Van Eghan
Otis Sistrunk
John Matuszak
Ted Hendircks
Daryl Lamonica
Jack Tatum
Ben Davidson
Tim Brown
Bo Jackson

Soooo many to choose from

How can you leave Bo Jackson off the list? Maybe because his career was too short...and Marcus Allen too...
