Position: Defensive end
Career: 1983-1993, 1995 Chicago Bears, 1994 San Francisco 49ers, 1996 Indianapolis Colts, 1997 Philadelphia Eagles
Pros: MVP of Super Bowl XX. 137.5 career sacks. Integral part of dominant Bears' defenses of the 1980s.
Cons: Never considered great against the run. Would he have been a great player if he hadn't had Hall of Fame teammates like Mike Singletary and Dan Hampton?
