Famous or Great? Without a doubt the greatest, in my humble opinion, was George Conner (1948-1956) Chicago Bear defensive tackle, linebacker and offensive tackle. He was the winner of the first Outland Trophy in 1946. 3 time All-American, 1 year with Holy Cross and 2 years with Notre Dame. He was all-pro 4 times (50-53), played both ways his entire career. His playing days ended with a knee injury. He was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio in 1975. He died March 31, 2003 at age 78.
Go for the knees, lineman of all age are typically larger individuals, and their knees carry all of the extra weight.
