I think when it comes to a Bengals Rushmore, you have to start with the Hall of Fame level players.
Anthony is in the HoF, so he's an automatic. Ken Riley is so deserving of the HoF that it's laughable he's not in...so he's the next lock. Then I think Kenny Anderson would be next, because a legit argument can be made that he deserves to be in the Hall.
So that's Munoz, Riley and Anderson. After that, it gets a little more difficult, with a few guys deserving of being in the mix. But, for me, the 4th spot has to be Boomer. Not only did Boomer win an MVP, and lead the team to a Super Bowl (2 things Anderson also did), but he also holds the NFL records for most completions, attempts, yards and TD's by a southpaw...most of which he racked up as a Bengal.
So, my 4 would be Munoz, Riley, Anderson and Esiason.
