Aaron Cox was a very fast receiver, he just wasn't able to catch the ball very well.

Re: 5 Fastest Rams (Now and All-Time)

I confess that I did this off the top of my head without any research, so I likely left out some obscure (and maybe some not-so-obcure) players.

Anyone else want to make a list?

Re: 5 Fastest Rams (Now and All-Time)

Ron Brown would be at the top, without a doubt.

Wasn't Milton Wynn some speed guy? And now Jackson. What about Az.

What about trung, in the category of lightning fast and no hands. i believe that ron brown would be #1.

Lets not forget Harold Jackson. He was a real blazer. Hadl to Jackson, quite a combo. I believe that duo lit up the cowboys for 4 tds in one game.

WOW GC that is scary...lol


I was going to post it earlier today, but I figured it was too passe and not many would remember. He was a burner and I remember watching him catch a lot of those bombs from Hadl. It was an exciting change from the basic ground chuck, during those days.

Re: 5 Fastest Rams (Now and All-Time)

A brief review of the all -time roster renders the following players for honorable mention

travis williams (1971)- 105 yd kickoff return, the tony horne of his day
rod perry and leroy irvin- too all time great burner cover guys
jessie hester (94 and 95)- very fast, not very productive

It is worth noting the crazy legs was one of the fastest players in the league in his day.

As far as fastest out the tunnel at the end of a game, that award would have to go to Flipper for his playoff performance against the giants.

Fastest to the qb-jack yougblood, leonard little and of course, the great, great virtually unblockable inventor of the head slap, deacon jones.

ramming speed to all
