Charles Roberts

[VictorRomano]

For those of you who weren't around to see him play.  Also, a lot of Mike Sellars in this video (he's the running back that's the same size as the O Lineman, often leading the blocking):

Also, this content creator seems to be publishing a lot of old Bomber videos and highlight packages right now.  Forum member?

Harris best overall but Charlie was exceptional

Blink was best.

1) Blink
2) Harris
3) Lewis
4) Reaves
5) Hansen

Reeves by far

Reeves by far

yah you could swap Harris and Reaves. Blink will always be number 1 in my eyes. Hopefully he gets in the ROH this year! He deserves it!

[DM83]

Blink was amazingly quick.
I can't forgive him for taking out Kevin Glenn that ended our chance of winning the Cup.
If  the real reason were known, he did that was known, his status would surely drop.

He must have been a nightmare to tackle.

Same content creator released a compilation of every Milt Stegall touchdown just 35 minutes ago:

Fun Milt fact - Once Milt caught the ball, he was never caught from behind in his entire CFL career.  Not once.

Also, it's Reaves, not Reeves.

Roberts was the best.  Should be on before alot of players already on. Also surprised Tyrone Jones not on the ring of honour

Thanks for posting this!

I was a little too young to appreciate Roberts' dominance, so seeing these highlights now is really cool to see!
I could see his game translating easily to almost any era!

Lewis
Herron
Harris
Roberts - his durability was amazing for a guy his size. Although instantly quick his top end speed was not impressive and his work ethic was questionable.  I remember him practicing in the old stadium in what appeared to be dress shoes one time. Never did know what was going on there. Just seemed downright lazy sometimes. I think of how great he could have been less so than what he did do.

blah blah blah regarding work ethic or lack there of but the guy could play. Who gives a crap what he does on his own time. The K Glenn arm thingy sucked but Blink was still amazing! Reason to go to the games alone. How often can you say that about a player?

Ya blink was amazing to watch and his ability to "turn it on" on game day was amazing.

I could only imagine how good he would have been if he took care of himself.

I still laugh one day after practice at the old stadium he comes walking out the doors cigarette in his mouth and a bud in each hand, both were done along with the cig.by the time he made it about 30 feet into the parking lot. lol....

Since you are all doing rankings and that's over my head  

Here is my WBB RB rankings since 2010:

1. Andrew Harris
2. Fred Reid
3. Will Ford
4. Brady Olivera

Brady will obviously climb up that list probably as soon as this year.
Honorable mention to Chris Garrett when he rushed for 190-yards in the East Final against Hamilton. I wanted to put him on this list for sentimental value...

Will Ford? Are you serious

[Sir Blue and Gold]

The greatest can be debated but no one will ever convince me Roberts didn't have the most overall natural pure talent of any running back i've ever seen in the CFL. The guy was simply something else. And we can all be sure he never went near any performance enhancing drugs because he barely worked out and probably partied even more than he scored TDs.
Just a legend.
