2000 Bruce Smith Upper Deck Legends Jersey
(2000 Bruce Smith Upper Deck Legends 3 clr Jersey)The former #1 overall pick of the Buffalo Bills in the 1985 NFL Draft played 19 seasons and finished his career as the NFL's all-time sack leader with an even 200. Smith played the bulk of his career as a DE in the 3-4 defensive scheme which makes his 200 sacks even more remarkable. No doubt my Buffalo Bills could utilize Mr. Smith today.This 2000 Upper Deck Legends Jersey card is a recent addition to my collection. It was a bit more than I wanted to spend at $12, but I was really excited when it came in the mail earlier this week. It's not terribly thick for a jersey card. This was toward the beginning of when jersey cards came out, and other than a couple creative releases from the past few years, the older jersey cards are just so much cooler. It also doesn't hurt when you add a card of an NFL legend to your collection from your favorite team.
This is a really great card and actually got me pondering a question. There's been a lot of great #1 overall NFL draft choices. Some Hall of Fame players and many busts, but is Bruce Smith the best #1 overall draft choice in the history of the NFL?
