Hands down Jerry Rice. I watched the superbowl from 1989 on tv the other day and forget just how great he was. Everything looked effortless.

Brett Favre, Reggie White & Donald Driver were my favorite Packers players to watch. Barry Sanders, Jerry Rice & Randy Moss. They could all take over games and were incredible to watch.

Even when he was in the league I usually missed watching him but Fred Taylor, when healthy, was real fun to watch.
Of course Moss, Sanders, Payton and them but digging a little deeper.
I remember Lester Hayes being a mean little tyrant, +1 on the Fouts/Joiner/Chandler/Jefferson/Muncie times, Harold Carmichael was dominant, Sterling Sharpe in my eyes set the bar for tight ends-especially with Favre, but biased old me will miss Cris Carter every game forever (If you don't know you better googletube yer interwebs on him).
Just some ones that come to mind.
Oh and Burt Reynolds was pretty good when he was a football player.
