Barry Wilburn used to pair with Darrell Green and was a fine player, winning a Super Bowl in 1988 with us.

Before the advent of Darrell Green, in the late 70's we had LeMar Parrish and Joe Lavender who were considered two of the best in the game.

Before them we had Pat Fischer and Mike Bass who were fine players.

All through the 1970's the Redskins were considered to have one of the very top secondaries in the NFL.
