My Take
Charles "Peanut" Tillman is the kind of player I quietly admire. A second-round Bear who became a Chicago institution, he turned a single skill, stripping the ball loose, into an art form that bore his nickname. Defensive backs rarely get poems written about them, but there's something deeply satisfying about a craftsman who masters one unglamorous thing and does it better than anyone. At 188 cm out of Chicago, he embodies the slow-built, blue-collar greatness I find far more compelling than overnight stardom. He earned every yard of his reputation.
