PFT's Team Mt. Rushmore gimmick

[cincygrad]

PFT is trying to come up with a Mt. Rushmore for every team.

Nominate some Bengals for their Mt. Rushmore | ProFootballTalk

Unfortunately, approximately 80% of folks that fill up the comments section on PFT are insane, so it's probably a more relevant question for this board. Who would be the four most important Bengals (owners, coaches or players) in franchise history?

I'd go:

Paul Brown -- Founder. Pretty easy choice

Anthony Munoz -- A certain choice. The only HOF player.

Ken Anderson -- Franchise quarterback. Brought the Bengals to relevancy.

Boomer Esiason -- There were arguably better Bengals, but Boomer was an MVP that took us to a Super Bowl.

Who's the best defender in Bengals history? he should be on there.
I think of David Fulcher or Tim Krumrie, but that's probably not it.

the article seems to be biased to offense.
These 3 are obvious, the 4th is not:
1. Munoz
2. Kenny
3. Paul Brown
4. ????

Ken Riley is probably the best defender, but was never even selected a single pro-bowl.

Maybe Corey Dillon even though he never played in a single playoff game in his time here? He is the best RB I think the team has ever had.

They should have a bobbling version of Icky Woods sticking out of the mountain.

These would be my four, pretty easily.
