I think it's three now. Gotta keep going with my '70s guys:
Jim Hart
Dan Pastorini
Steve Bartkowski
I've been picking off active players who have already been in the league for 7+ years and meanwhile nails is having all the fun.
Brian Sipe
Was top of my QB list and next pick damnit

Brian Sipe
Not sure if I would have gotten him. But it did remind me of another old Browns QB:
Otto Graham
There's a few players I wanted to pick at some point as some sort of "are they too recent" sanity check. Barkley and Cooper were two of them

Barkley had 2000 yards last year, and had at least 2 or 3 good years in New York, plus another few years in New York when he missed a bunch of games with injuries. He has 5000 yards, easy.

Yeah I just recall he lost a lot of time to injury which made me think twice

How many left:
108 rushing
111 receiving
85 passing
Starting with 165 passers with over 15,000 yards on the list, we've now correctly guessed 80 of them without a single... um... incompletion.
Jake Plummer
I'm guessing he's over 10k yards
Davis had a really strong peak but then seemed to get replaced really, really quickly so probably right but was a pick of last resort
