Atlanta Falcons Players Share Their All-Time Greats for Key Positions
Three prominent offensive players from the Atlanta Falcons, Drake London, Bijan Robinson, and Kyle Pitts, participated in a discussion about their all-time greats for wide receivers, running backs, and tight ends.
London selected Calvin Johnson as his top wide receiver, followed by Randy Moss, Andre Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, and Jerry Rice. He noted that his choices were based on players he had personally watched, despite Rice's career ending before his time.
Robinson identified Barry Sanders as his top running back, with LaDainian Tomlinson, Marshall Faulk, Walter Payton, and Adrian Peterson following. He later adjusted his rankings, placing Faulk ahead of Peterson.
Pitts began his tight end selections with Travis Kelce and George Kittle, followed by Shannon Sharpe and Tony Gonzalez. He debated between Ozzie Newsome and Mike Ditka for the final spot, ultimately considering both, while also acknowledging Rob Gronkowski as a notable omission.
