Another player who was universally "snubbed" due to the other guys around him, but was ultimately a true gamer: Chris Gray.

Efren Herrera- Who I never saw play but I love the fact he did trick plays!
Man, this thread takes me down memory lane. A lot of worthy no-names have been mentioned, but these are two who stood out to me -- not sure if Efren Herrera qualifies as a no-name, but Chris Grey sure does. My favorite no-name is also an O-lineman, and nobody has mentioned his name yet.
Bryan Millard was a college-tackle-turned-NFL-guard. (#71, if anyone cares.) He played with an attitude. I have a great memory of him, at the end of a play or maybe after the play was over, shoving a defender in the chest and knocking him flat on his butt just because he could. He also had a sense of humor and a way with words -- for example, "I'd rather be trapped in a phone booth with some angry bobcats than be tackled by Fredd Young." (I might be paraphrasing a bit, but he said something exactly like that when asked about Fredd Young and his impact on the team.) I don't know exactly why, but I've always liked him since he started playing for the Seahawks.
I should probably point out that he's a no-name
now. Not so much when he was playing.
