Radio guys were doing this but I missed the callers. They were asking you to name your favorite lesser known Redskin, no Riggo or Sonny obviously. Thought it was a pretty good idea.
Mine is Neil Olkewicz. Despite being one of the top 70 all time Redskins he was always under the radar. Every summer they would bring in someone to take his job but when the dust settled Neil was the one standing at the end. You younger guys didn't see it but those early 80's Redskins had one of the best run defenses I've ever seen. It started with Butz and Grant up front but the guy to make it all work was Neil Olkewicz.

Any good defense needs good line play to allow the LBers to do their job. That is football 101. To diminish Olkie is ridiculous.
You know DGF Darryl Grant might be considered a good under the radar guy. Everyone knew Butz because he was so big for the time and Madden always made a big deal out of him but Grant was a hell of a DT also.
My vote was darrel young too. I think I'm way too young for this topic. I'll say mike sellers. Guess I like fullbacks.
