O.J. Simpson is probably the most famous Buffalo Bill player, but for all of the wrong reasons. However, the title for the New York-based franchise's greatest athlete goes to none other than former defensive end, Bruce Smith. If you haven't seen Bruce Smith play, let's just say that he'd be getting a lot of flags in today's NFL. Smith's 6'4, 280lbs frame was relentless when it came to hunting down quarterbacks and thrusting his entire body into theirs with no remorse.
Following his final season at Virginia Tech University where he became known as 'The Sack Man' he took his talents to the big leagues where he was drafted first overall in the 1985 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. Smith played his most prominent years with the Buffalo Bills for an insane fifteen seasons before taking his talents to the Washington Redskins in 2000 where he would play four seasons before retiring in 2003. Smith was an important piece to the Bills' four consecutive Super Bowl appearances from 1990-1993 and currently holds the NFL record for career sacks with 200. The 11x Pro Bowler was inducted into the Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
