[itsaboat]

Haley, Norton Jr, and Sanders

honorable mention goes to Kenneth "The Shark" Gant

 

[Bull Frog]

Tolbert
Woodson
Washington

 

[Cowboy from New York]

Always thought Tolbert was underrated by most.
Woody
Norton made one of the best goal line stops in SB history but in a blowout it is never remembered.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Darrin Smith lb. He was one of my favs. Quick and athletic. Another lb was Randal Godfrey.

 

[Aven8]

Leon Lett. Would have been an awesome 3 tech today. Super quick.
Darren Smith. very underrated LB.
Kevin Smith. (Pre-injury) Today after an Achilles he would be right back out there, too bad.

Kevin Smith who was a better corner than Deion before injuries took over.

Lett so big and so fast off the ball, would have been a HOF if his head was on straight.

Woodson a LB with corner skills playing safety a rare player indeed.

[GoCowboysGo]

Woodson
Haley
Lett

Haley, Woodson, Lett

Smith better than Deion? wow.

Check out Smith playing Rice with no help and get back to me. Deion was incredibly overrated, you attack him with a physical receiver and he was very ordinary...Dallas was never afraid to throw at him.

I would not go that far, but Kevin Smith was really good. Jerry Rice's big catches always seemed to go against Larry Brown.

 

[Manster68]

There were so many I hated to reduce it to three.

But, for playing along - Haley, Casillas, and Everett.

With a whole bunch of honorable mentions beginning with Bates!

Sure I can find many games of Smith too where he was overrated. I remember Deion didn't have safety help like Smith or the other Dallas corners had.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Kevin Smith who was a better corner than Deion before injuries took over.

yea, this isn't remotely true

 

[ccb04]

Quite a few to choose from...but 3 of my favorites were definitely: Darren Woodson, Tony Tolbert, Kevin Smith

 

[BAT]

Haley, Norton, Washington

Honorable mention to Pup. Woody, Lett and Deion were more talented than 3 chosen but those 3 put the nasty in that 90's defense.
