I didn't have the honor of following the Browns during the dynasty years of Paul Brown so I have to exclude many incredible players when asked my opinion on who was the greatest Brown's player I have ever seen. From the highlight films, it's clear that Jim Brown was probably the greatest player in NFL history, not just Cleveland Browns history, but I only witnessed Mr. Brown winning the war in Europe together with Trini Lopez and Charles Bronson.
For me, amongst those I have seen nobody topped Jerry Sherk. Even if I was a teenage kid, who knew little about football, Sherk was simply so good that it was impossible not to watch him. Cat like quickness and instincts, and a natural nose for the ball, he was always in the middle of the action in spite of constant double and triple teaming by opponents.
Hey thanks! Good to be someone's favorite!
