He made my list too; super-popular player, relative to his position.

Best blocking FB we've ever had and it isn't close.

TE Dan Ross.... Still holds Bengal single season records for Tight Ends receptions (71) and yards (910).  Set Super Bowl record with 11 receptions)

TE Rodney Holman.... 3 time Pro Bowler.  For a 6 year stretch ('85-'90) no other TE in the league had more tds or a higher average per catch.

DE Eddie Edwards.... 50 sacks in 5 years ('80-'84) despite missing 7 games in '82.

DL Dan Wilkinson.... Among best interior line pass rushers in the league.  Moved to DE his final year as a Bengal.  So good that we got 2 first round picks when we traded him to Washington.

RB Essex Johnson.... From 1970-73 he averaged 960 yards from scrimmage, 4.7 yards per carry, and 14.2 yards per reception (86 for 1224 yds).  In those 4 years He had 9 receiving tds with 6 of them 39 yards or longer (39, 49, 51, 65, 67, and 78)  He also had 4 rushes of 40+ yards (86, 68, 49, 46)

RB Boobie Clark.... Just a one-year-wonder (rookie season 1335 yards from scrimmage in 14 game season) but he makes my list on his name alone.

He made my list Wink
