7) Jumbo Elliott

Years: 1988-1995

Legacy: Super Bowl Champion (XXV); Pro Bowl (1993)

There was never a better name for an offensive lineman.

Jumbo Elliott was the NY Giants starting left tackle for 98 games over eight seasons, including one Super Bowl Championship. It’s unusual for an offensive lineman to become a fan favorite, but Elliott was one of the most popular players on the team’s roster.

The team’s run game excelled with Elliott on the field, and it’s one of the biggest reasons they were able to defeat the Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl XXV.
