DT was something else entirely. But I've always had a soft spot for Derrick Johnson, the man never seemed to get the credit that he deserved outside of KC. I really hope he finds his way into coaching.
Also, I'm digging the Willie Lanier love that I'm seeing! Watching him play in old footage is like watching a man play among boys. |

DT. His edge rush was unstoppable.

Can there be a correct answer other than Derrick Thomas?

Chris probably has as much impact on the game as DT, but he can't match DT's passion for the game. It was infectious.
I also just plain liked DJ, but obviously he'll never top any lists given how bad we were during his tenure. (And I'm not old enough to have an opinion on anyone pre-90s.) |

DT. IMO the best pure edge rusher in NFL history.

Pleasantly surprised to see James Hasty and Kevin Ross getting some love.
We had a nice run at CB back in my early Chiefs fan days. James Hasty Kevin Ross Dale Carter Albert Lewis |

After living through the Bill Kenney and Tod Blackledge years, and some embarrassingly bad teams, DT made me enjoy watching my Chiefs again. Last edited by Radar Chief; 06-16-2023 at 09:32 AM.. |

While KC has has plenty of VERY good players on that side of the ball. Only one had the ability to disrupt the opponent so much that they has to gameplan around him. And that would be the none other than Derrick Vincent Thomas.
1. Derrick Thomas 2. Buck Buchanan 3. Willie Lanier 4. Bobby Bell 5. Emmitt Thomas 6. Deron Cherry 7. Chris Jones 8. Neil Smith 9. Derrick Johnson 10. Dan Saleaumua |
