Going to go with a sentimental pick here.
This player played both defensive end and fullback, and we are selecting him on offense. Here, he would go to help the Eagles win the 1948 and 1949 NFL championships, including scoring the only touchdown in 1949. He led the league in receptions for three straight years from 1953 to 1955 - at the end of his career, led the league in receiving yards in 53 and 55, and scored the most receiving touchdowns in the NFL in 1953 as well. He intercepted two passes and forced eight fumbles in his career. He blocked a punt for a touchdown in his first season. He was a six-time all pro and six-time pro-bowler. He was inducted into the PFHOF in 1970.
He was also a badass. He was drafted after his sophomore year of college and joined Patton's Third Army in World War II. He was awarded the Silver and Bronze Stars for his actions on the battlefield, as well as a field commission to Second Lieutenant.
Offensive FLEX: Pete Pihos
