Old School ..NFL Question...

Who was the Fastest wide receiver you remember as a kid ? I’ll tell you mine ...later. Let’s kept it in the Super Bowl ERA ....

Elroy ( Crazylegs) Hirsch

that guy from Oakland raiders whose wife was a model or actress, cant remember his name, he was fast and good

he was in the 60"s or 70"s

I'm in my 40's, so my favorite football memories are from the 80's decade. Willie Gault.

Bo Jackson ?

Don Beebe- not that old school but fast in the 80's

William refrigerator Perry

Bob Hayes - Dallas Cowboys

Think fastest man. Bullet Bob Hayes.

This! I heard he was acclaimed the "fastest man in the world" at one time.

Yes Sir !!......the only man to win Olympic Gold and a Super Bowl.

Not Darrell Green in his prime?

Jerry Rice, Darrell Green, Bo Jackson. Honestly don't know who was fastest but all great players I liked and respected

Hayes or maybe Lyn Swann(sp?)

One time he didn't when he shot himself in the leg dancing. LOL What he gets for carrying a over priced gun with no safety ( glock) . Ok glock lovers you been poked.....


But yea Randy Moss

Jerry Rice, Andre Rison, Bebee

Fastest that I remember as a kid, Willie Gault.

It's Bob Hays no question

Darrel Green Washington RedSkins. I know, not a receiver

^^ him! .........drafted AFTER he ran in the Olympics.

Not receivers, but Darrel Green, and deon sanders were fast. Bo Jackson was really fast, maybe the best athlete in the last 50 years. Powerful man too bad he got hurt.

Bullet Bob Hayes - according to bleacherreport.com article on the 25 fastest 25 players in the history of the NFL

Position: Wide Receiver

NFL Team:

Dallas Cowboys (1965-1974)

San Francisco 49ers (1975)

Bob Hayes is the fastest player in NFL history.

At the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Hayes won the 100 meter and broke the existing World Record with a time of 10.06 seconds.

He also won a second gold medal in the 4 x 100 meter relay, which also produced a new World Record (39.06 seconds).

Hayes was a three-time Pro Bowler and was inducted in 2009 in the Football Hall of Fame.

Darrell Green was the fastest

Number 3 on the list

You have him confused with Plaxico Burress of the Steelers. He was the genius who stuffed the Glock in the waist band of his sweat pants. Gun done went all violent on him.

joey galloway

Were you possibly thinking of Ahmad Rashad? He played for the Vikings for a while and was pretty good. His wife was Phyllis Rashad who played as Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show.
