22. Ted Hendricks, 4-3 OLB

  • Baltimore Colts (1969-73), Green Bay Packers (1974), Oakland-LA Raiders (1975-83)
  • 1970, 1977, 1980 and 1983 Super Bowl Champion / 4-Time 1st Team All-Pro

“The Mad Stork” as many know him by was a four-time Super Bowl Champion with two different squads.

Standing at 6-7, Ted Hendricks was a mad man on the football field – a mad man who never missed games and played an incredible 215 consecutive games.

He was an eight time Pro Bowler and blocked an absurd 25 kicks with his amazing wingspan. That is obviously an NFL record.

This Oakland Raider had more all-around ability than anybody we’ve ever encountered: 60.5 sacks, 16 fumble recoveries and 26 interceptions during his career.
