I have Dickerson #3 all time behind Brown and OJ. Put him on the greatest show on turf teams and he would have blown everyone away.
Deacon was the best ever.
Just spitballing with you here, Deacon. Hairsplitting might be more accurate.
But Dickerson on those GSOT teams over Faulk? Faulk was the better receiver and better in pass pro, too. Not to mention that Faulk was like another coach on the field plus with the jump cuts in traffic. Both in their prime? I take Faulk over Dickerson for GSOT every time.
Deacon? Gawd! I’m a huge fan. Enjoyed the heck out of watching him play in his prime (yeah, I’m THAT old). Even met him once and enjoyed a brief conversation. But Deacon vs AD as ‘best’ player at their respective positions? I hafta give AD the nod because AD is doing it in modern day football. This may sound like heresy, but both Merlin and Deacon would probably struggle against modern OL players, modern player conditioning, size, and current rules.
Sorry.
