    He was a beast! Like a rich mans Darren Sproles.
    Both great, but I think Gretzky is the hockey GOAT.

    Stat wise I agree, but from what Lemieux went through in his career I put him #1. There were times his back was so messed up he couldn't bend over to tie his own skates but still went out there and dominated everyone.

    Haven't seen any love for Moss in here. Probably my favorite receiver of all time. Only player in NFL history to have his last name turned into a verb.

    I would honestly take randy miss over jerry rice. If I'm a cornerback the one wide receiver that I would be most scared of is randy moss. Their has never been a player that his athletic abilities. 4.25 40 time, 44 inch vertical, 6'5, incredible hands. Whenever I say this people think I'm crazy, but idk man randy impresses me more than jerry rice.

    So would I. A past his prime Moss had 23 TDs with Brady, so imagine if he was in a stable situation like Rice was the majority of his career. Granted Moss was sometimes a headcase, but he's still easily the most talented receiver of all time.

    As an Eagles fan gotta go with Brian Dawkins, one of the best safeties to ever play the game

    Out of everyone mentioned, he might have the best highlights. Like all guys are making great plays, but when he used to scramble back and forth and would slice through the defense and take it 40 yards for a TD, it was kind of like you couldn't believe what you were watching. And Mike Vick in Madden 04 is the greatest video game athlete of all time, hands down.

    Seems like a great guy too. I always hear stories of him helping out young fans who are sick, disabled, etc.

    My favorite video game athlete of all time. He was like a cheat code in Madden 04.
