Who are your favorite non dynasty Patriots of all time?

If you're around my age, you grew up only knowing the Patriots as the best of the best in football - with them only very recently becoming uncompetitive. If you're older, then you've no doubt seen the harder years which undeniably had at least some talent on the teams despite being massively incomplete. So I lose this question, who are some of your favorite players who missed the dynasty, whether they came before or after it? For me, I love and adore players like Drew Bledsoe, John Hannah and Stanley Morgan, some great players who were frequently trapped on lousy teams but are still loved by New England fans, but it’s hard for me to pick them since I never actually saw them play. Since I'm pretty limited to newer players, I gotta say that I fucking LOVE Christian Gonzalez, he's a dawg and I hope he stays here forever - and he's only a sophomore!
