Surprised to see Tony Gonzalez so low. Is it because he played just a few years there?

Vick easily over Matt Ryan as far as his Falcons career goes. He was the most electric player in the league in his prime.

Tony G should also be higher on the TE list as a Falcon. 1st probably.

At the very least, he should be above Crumpler. I'm waiting for your Chiefs list. Nm, it...and he...is already there.

Wow more electric but less effective!!!

I think the most obvious swing and miss on this particular list is Deion being behind ANYONE at CB. His most effective time in the league was with Atlanta, on a team that wasn't as good as he was...also...where's Tommy Nobis? Borderline HOFer - some say not even borderline, but a lot like Randy Gradishar in Denver, should be in already.
If we were to put this team on the field, RC could play LG or RG. Since Fralic was a standout at RG, playing RC at LG would be the move I'd think. I'd also like Warren Bryant over Weiner or Clabo.
Count me as one who thinks Tony G shouldn't be on this team, though. He's a Chief. If you're gonna play the teams against each other, he's gonna be on that team. Same with Warrick Dunn and Morten Andersen, etc. Gotta have one team or the other. Dunn is either Tampa or Atlanta, but Mort is New Orleans all the way.
Hard to argue most of the WRs, though I'd like to see Wallace Francis somewhere on the team. Julio Jones will end up on this someday also.

Again, you only look at stats. Vick was a better player than Ryan was compared to his competition. You also aren't taking into account how much better Vick was in the Run Game. Ryan has been nothing more than a stat filler at QB and has choked in epic fashion when it comes to the playoffs. In terms of Falcons lore, Vick is better than Ryan IMO.

I couldn't disagree more, in fact, I would kick Vick off the roster entirely. He sunk the franchise into a pathetic state, and Matt Ryan helped revive it! Atlanta before Matt Ryan and after Matt Ryan are two completely different teams, and as exciting as Vick was to watch for fans, he held the team back and then destroyed it with off the field issues and scheme limitations. Oh and there's this little thing called THEY GAVE UP LADAINIAN TOMLINSON FOR HIM
