4. Rosie Brown: 

A member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Rosie Brown  was one of the best offensive linemen ever to play football. He played with the Giants from 1953-1965 and he played in 156 games. Brown was voted to 9 Pro Bowls and was an all pro 6 times. He was one of the most consistent and powerful blockers in NFL history.

There have been many great offensive linemen in the history of the Giants but Brown was the first. Brown set the standard for offensive line play in professional football. Brown was a big and powerful player that dominated at the line of scrimmage.

Offensive linemen never get enough credit. Offensive linemen from the 50’s get even less attention. Brown was simply amazing.
