The tenth greatest player ever is Dick Butkus. Butkus played Linebacker for the Chicago Bears for his entire career. His first year in the NFL was in 1965. Dick was one of the most feared tacklers ever, he once said "I want to let people know that they've been hit, and when they get up they don't have to look to see who hit em. Shouldn't be any puzzle, when they come through they got to say it muct've been that Butkus guy. Thats the way I wanted to be known." He was named the NFL's defensive player of the year in 1969 on a team that won just one game, that is remarkable.
