Las Vegas Raiders All-Time Top Five: Outside Linebackers - Sports Illustrated Oakland Raiders News, Analysis and More


1. Ted Hendricks, 1975-1983
Hendricks was a star before he came to the Raiders, being selected All-Pro in 1971 and helping the Baltimore Colts win Super Bowl V with a 16-13 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. The Colts went 14-2-1 in that 1970 season and the Raiders certainly noticed him when Baltimore beat them, 27-17, in the AFC Championship Game, especially when he sacked quarterback Daryle Lamonica. The 6-7, 220-pound Hendricks was drafted by the Colts in the second round (No. 15 overall) of the 1969 NFL Draft out of Miami (Fla.), where he was a three-time All-American, was named 1968 Lineman of the Year by United Press International and finished fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting after recording 327 tackles in three years and being voted into the Miami Hall of Fame. Hendricks had 347 tackles and 18½ sacks in his five seasons with the Colts, plus 11 interceptions for 147 yards in returns, and added five fumble recoveries for 31 yards and a touchdown. However, he played his final season in Baltimore without a contract and signed with the Jacksonville Sharks of the World Football League in 1975, but the WFL went bankrupt and the Colts traded him to the Green Bay Packers. He had 75 tackles, five interceptions, seven blocked kicks, and two sacks for the Pack to make All-Pro again. Then Managing General Partner Al Davis signed him to a free-agent contract and he had nine great seasons with the Silver and Black. Although statistics are incomplete for those years, we know he had at least 363 tackles and 60½ sacks, while blocking an NFL record 27 kicks in addition to making 26 interceptions with one returned for a touchdown and recovering 16 fumbles, one for a score, and making four tackles for safeties. Hendricks, who played in 215 games and never missed one in his career, was a key member of Raiders teams that won Super Bowls XI, XV, and XVIII, he made the Pro Bowl eight times and was a six-time All-Pro. In addition, he was selected to the NFL 1970s All-Decade Team, the NFL 1980s All-Decade Team, the NFL 75th Anniversary All-Time Team, and the NFL 100th Anniversary All-Time Team, and was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1990, his second year of eligibility. In his final game, the Raiders routed the Washington Redskins, 38-9, in Super Bowl XVIII.

Oakland, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas Raiders Top Five: Defensive Ends - Sports Illustrated Oakland Raiders News, Analysis and More


1. Howie Long, 1981-1993
The 6-5, 265-pound Long had definite ideas about what he wanted from his pro career after the Raiders selected him in the second round (No. 48 overall) out of Villanova in the 1981 National Football League Draft. “(In want) financial security, and I want to be in the Hall o
f Fame. That’s my goal. And I’d like to win a few more Super Bowls,” Howie Long told Football Digest in 1986.” He got them all, except for more Super Bowls. In his 13-year career, Long recorded 84 sacks, not counting the 7.5 sacks he had as a rookie before sacks became an official NFL statistic. He had a career-high 13 sacks in 1983, five in one game that season against the Washington Redskins. We also don’t know how many tackles he had, because they also were not an official stat, but he often finished games in double digits. In Super Bowl XVIII, he had five tackles and made 58 tackles plus 12 sacks the following season, but tackle stats for his career are incomplete. Long also intercepted two passes and returned them for a total of 84 yards, including a 73-yarder, in addition to recovering 10 fumbles while playing in 179 games. During those 13 seasons, he played in the Pro Bowl eight times, was a five-time All-Pro, was NFL Defensive Lineman of the Year in 1985, was selected to the NFL 1980s All-Decade team, played on the Raiders Super Bowl XVIII champions and was selected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000. He also was one of the defensive ends selected on Pro Football Weekly’s All-Time 3-4 Defensive Front. Long seemed to have plenty left in the tank when he decided to end his brilliant 13-year career and go into television as an analyst for Fox Network’s NFL coverage. Raiders Managing General Partner Al Davis unsuccessfully tried to change Long’s mind, which was made up. “It’s time to get on with life,” Long said in announcing his retirement. “It’s time to grow up. I’ve been very fortunate. I’ve been very lucky. God has blessed me. I’ve made more money than I ever dreamt of making. Having won a world championship, having done just about everything there is to do in sports from a defensive lineman’s standpoint, having a great time and finishing up at this point in my career in the Pro Bowl at 34, that is, in my mind, the way I think you should leave sports.” Long still is working for Fox and won an Emmy Award in 1997 as the Outstanding Sports Personality/Analyst, and has appeared in several movies. Even though Long earned All-East honors and was honorable mention as a senior at Villanova, he was not all that highly regarded until a big break came when he was added the roster for the 1980 Blue-Gray game in place of an injured player. He made the most of it, standing out in practice as pro scouts watched, before named the game’s Most Valuable Player. Long was an outstanding all-around athlete, especially for his size, lettering in football, basketball and track (setting state records in the shot and the discus), at Millford (Mass.) High School. He also was on the boxing team at Villanova and won the 1981 Northern Collegiate Heavyweight Boxing Championship. Long was a tight end at Villanova before being moved to defensive end. And the rest is history.
