30 Greatest NFL players of all time

SI ranks the 30 greatest NFL players of all time.

I put Jim Brown at the top.  They have him as no. 3.  But then I put Wilt Chamberlain as the greatest NBA player of all time.  And if Brady is no. 1, then Bill Russell should be no. 1 too.

[Apparently Gil Brandt agrees with me.]
