There couldn't be a more obvious choice for the Giants' greatest franchise player of all-time that linebacker, Lawrence Taylor himself. While Deacon Jones coined the term 'sack' Lawrence Taylor forced the league's hand to make the act an official stat. L.T. might be one of the game's most violent and feared linebackers of all-time and rightfully so. During his NFL tenure, Taylor single-handedly changed the way the linebacker position was played throughout the entire NFL. Unfortunately, not every linebacker has been as gifted or vicious as Lawrence Taylor.
After his All-American stint at the University of North Carolina, Taylor was selected 2nd overall in the 1981 NFL Draft by the New York Giants where he would gon on to play his entire thirteen-season career. Taylor would go to start 180 out the 184 games he's was listed active for while recording a total of 132.5 sacks throughout his career. The 3x Defensive Player of the Year played a critical part in the Giants Super Bowl XXI and XXV victories. L.T. will forever be the frontman leader of 'The Big Blue Wrecking Crew.'
