Personally, I would have rated Deacon Jones ahead of White, but the rules were different---in Jones' day, offensive linemen couldn't extend their arms to block. But there was less blitzing then, and Jones often was double-teamed by a RB.

And Willie Lanier deserves to be ranked higher than 53.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
