  10. John Mackey: A revolutionary player on the field, a true force off of it

    In death, legendary Baltimore Colts tight end John Mackey will undoubtedly be remembered for how he played the game. The 6-foot, 2-inch, 230-pounder who played from 1963 to 1972 set the standard for his position, combining speed and power like no tight end who had ever taken the field. As his former coach Don Shula told the Baltimore Sun, &quot;Previous to John, tight ends were big strong guys like [Mike] Ditka and [Ron] Kramer who would block and catch short passes over the middle.

He was the second player at his position ever elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and college football's award for best tight endbears his name.
