In College? Cam Newton or Tebow are right there offensively but Walker takes the prize
Derrick Thomas was maybe the most dominant LB in modern CFB history..so have to go with him for defense in college.
Pros
Manning, White, Smith, Thomas, ....a ton too choose from
I'm going Thomas though. Just a freak of nature LBer

Derrick Thomas and Bo Jackson. After them, name any of Bear Bryant's first 3 QBs or any Heisman winning Florida QB. Follo that up with a couple of Tennessee greats in Manning, White, and Berry. Follow that with some LSU players like Glenn Dorsey, Patrick Peterson, and Billy Cannon. Oh, sorry I forgot I could only name one lol.
Derrick Thomas had 27 sacks in a season. And fucking ate people. I'll take him. Bo Jackson is 1b. Everyone else is 2nd.

Is it just me, or would an all-time SEC team beat the living shit out of any other all-time conference team? I mean the first string would be insane. Second and third string would add depth that would be unmatched by other conferences. I think we should make an all-time SEC team. Post our teams and then find the most common players and put them on first team.

The ACC would challenge, just from Miami and FSU's players. Then you'd get some surprises thrown in, like Lawrence Taylor from NC and Bruce Smith from VT.

Yeah, Derrick Thomas is nice and all, but the All-ACC team would have Lawrence Taylor, Ray Lewis, and Derrick Brooks.

:lol: please link where I said that. Reggie white isn't even the best player to come out of Tennessee. If we are talking best overall career... Peyton manning. If you are talking college career it's a different story.
But Peyton is the best player to come out of any college ever so my answer is Peyton manning
