    Gary Collins one of my old favorites, Paul Warfield still ticked the browns traded him, Ozzie, Slaughter, Braylon.

    And the oldies Lavelli, Speedie the other three are all in a heap of modern and older players.

    The names you mention are correct.  For the other 3....think "talking like a Pirate"  and Pop Stars.

    Here is today's question.....sort of the finale of the "triple set"

    Name the Top Ten in Browns history in TD receptions.

    Answers:

    1. Gary Collins  70

    2. Dante Lavelli  62

    3. Paul Warfield  52

    4. Ray Renfro  50

    5. Ozzie Newsome  47

    6. Mac Speedie  33

    7. Reggie Rucker  32

    8. Braylon Edwards  28

    9. Michael Jackson  28

    10. Webster Slaughter  27

    Is it just me or what,  as in my recollection I thought  Webster was a much better receiver than either Braylon or Jackson

    Dave Logan is  11th with 24.

    Here is today's  Trivia Question:    Pro-Football Reference has developed a metric called the Career Average, which is supposed to tell us how productive a player has been in a career or a season.   While it is obviously not conclusive of a player's "value"...it is something....and perhaps as good or better than any other metric that has been developed.  (If you have something else applicable, by all means, let us know).  Also note...this metric does not really measure much if any statistical measurement prior to 1960 

    Today's question, simply:

    Name the Top Ten All Time most productive players in their careers per this system.  (since 1960)

    Yikes. We are supposed to figure out who the most productive players are by a value that most of us have never heard of?  Does this only apply to skill position players, or all players? 

    I mean, shit, I'll throw up Tom Brady, Jerry Rice, Walter Payton and Rob Gronkowski.

    You will have heard of ALL of the players,   if you are any kind of football fan.   Longevity helps in this stat.

    Brady and Rice are correct.....but not Walter or Gronk.

    I will give this hint:  It applies to all players and  5 of the top 10 are QBs.

    To throw in some defense.....Barry Sanders, Reggie White, Lawrence Taylor, Ronnie Lott, my old favorite Joe cool Montana......and the great Jim Brown.

    You could probably start with 50 and whittle them down to 10.

    Only  Reggie White.     I know...tremendous names given that did not make it. 

    Half of the Ten still not named.

    I gave up when LT does not make any list😛...but plug in Joe Namath..Terry BradShaw...Steve Young?  and...

    NO! the AFCC Browns did not pass on Emmitt Smith in 1990... Emmitt got picked #17, and the browns got jumped at pick #18... than the Browns traded back too...

    Well.... already guesses that got some right  indicated that 3 of them were Brady, Peyton and Brees.  So, no, none you name other than Brady are correct.

    NO  none right.

    Well....how about this answer:

    NONE....because the AFCN did not exist in 1990.   It was still the AFC Central at that point.  And, if you do not want to acknowledge the truth of that answer...then I will say the Houston Oilers.
