3) Aaron Thomas

Years: 1962-1970

Legacy: Pro Bowl (1964)

A staple of the NY Giants’ offense in the 1960’s – Aaron Thomas was a constant for a team starved for offense.

He played in at-least ten games every single full year he was in New York – his best year coming in 1964, where he made it to the Pro Bowl. His career high in touchdowns would come three years later, when he caught nine in 1967.

He may not have seen the team success other tight-ends did, but he was a force while wearing the team’s uniform.
