Bruce Smith is arguably the Best Defensive End of all time (and played in a 3-4 scheme doing it as we know), a multi-year all pro, defensive player of the year, the all-time sack leader by a lot, and played on a 4 time back to back Super Bowl team. In the vast majority of games he played in, he was the best player on the field. Watching him live was like watching no other end I've ever set eyes on. His pass rush tools, his incredible lean and balance, his speed and agility, and unexpected power. Only Reggie White lives in the same stratosphere as Bruce Smith. Yeah, I get the Manning love for sure, but.... it's Bruce. best #1 pick ever.
