He changed they way CB's had to play the game and also how they had to be built like Moss also has in this time for me that's a top WR and I'm not saying this because I'm a Cowboy, it's just based on what the athlete brought to the game.

Like I've said Green should and will be a first baloot HOF he is 1 of the best CB's ever to play the game and it's defenetly in my top 10 All time.

Yeah I think you missed my point. I was saying that by the numbers, Irvin shouldn't even sniff the top 20. But since he didn't play all that long, he should be higher than his numbers suggest.

On the contrary, by the numbers Brown and Carter should be ranked 2nd and 3rd. But they played so long, and played in a passing era. So I had to bump them down to the bottom of the top 10. But not lower than Irvin, after all, those numbers are sick.

In the end, Brown and Carter get the nod for me.
