In the early 80s when I was a teenager me and a friend used to meet the players when they returned from a road game at the old One Buc Place to pick up their cars. One time we brought our Don Heinrich Pro Preview magazines for players to autograph and Richard Wood and Cecil "The Diesel" Johnson wanted to read what the magazine said about them, so they asked us to sit in the backseat of Johnson's sweet Mercedes while they sat in the front and read the mags. Then they signed them for us, personalized to our names, drove us back to our car parked two blocks away, and shook our hands. That was like the coolest thing ever for us at the time that we still talk about 40 years later. 🤣

After Hardy Nickerson, Ricky Bell, and James Wilder are put into the Ring of Honor, Batman Wood has got to go in, as well.

[@garrettwilson9872]

I completely agree he is still alive so maybe before bell just because he's alive or put bell in with hardy so batman can get in also david logan has to get in he was all pro 40 sacks at NT!

[@brucewaynedk83]

Thank you!! That would be amazing for him! Appreciate that!

Excellent Pass Defense - Wood seems always aware of where the QB is throwing
In today's NFL they'd probably make Wood a Safety or Hybrid Linebacker-Safety position
