I’m watching it on NFL network, and I forgot how this line was originally made up of hasbeens and low draft picks. Nate was playing in the USFL before Dallas, Gogan was pretty much a spare, Stepnoski was considered to be too small, Tuinei was a converted D-Lineman. Gesek and and Williams came along later but Williams was a low draft pick from an NAIA school. Allen wasn’t drafted until later to replace Gogan. The greatest line ever was pretty much a mash up of NFL castoffs.

None in the HOF..... it's one of those sum of it's parts deals, plus Emmitt was better than he gets credit for

Best guard to ever play the game? I think he may be. An absolute beast. A stud. The standard.
