Not a lot of Jets fans on the board, I know, but this guy was one of their greatest players and an original Jet. He was the quiet leader of the Jets mostly unheralded linebacking corps, along with Ralph Baker and Al Atkinson, which I believe was the key to their defense, in their Super Bowl season.
Jets/Titans Great Larry Grantham, No. 60, Dies
"I always saw Larry as the captain and the leader," said Gerry Philbin, the Jets' left end on many of Grantham's defenses and a fellow member of the Ring's Class of '11. "His football knowledge, the way he skirted around blockers and made tackles, he just surprised a lot of people. Pound for pound, he was the best player on the Jets."
