Bruce Smith. 4. player. 16. <p>The first No. 1 overall selection to make the list, Bruce Smith was the first pick in 1985 after he won the Outland Trophy in his final year at Virginia Tech.</p> <p>This was a signature draft for the Bills who played in four consecutive Super Bowl’s with Smith and his draft classmate Andre Reed who was the team’s fourth round pick. Not to mention, Frank Reich was the third-round pick that year and led the team to the biggest comeback playoff win against the Houston Oilers. Reed joined Smith in the Hall of Fame last year, but Smith didn’t have to wait as long after he was inducted in his first year of eligibility in 2009.</p> <p>Smith retired as the NFL’s all-time sack leader with 200 but oddly enough never led the league in sacks in any of his 19 seasons. He did, however, win the 1990 and 1996 Defensive Player of the Year and was an eight-time first-team All-Pro.</p>. DE. Buffalo Bills
