Post subject:  Longest tenured play

Who are the lognest tenured players on your team? I have three players from the original 2003 season.

TE - Fredrick Abeyta
FB - Anton Ervin
LT - Doug Fisher

The first two were key in Hawaii's early success with Ronnie Tu. Abeyta was his dump off target at TE and still is a pretty decent player considering his age. Ervin is in the top 7 in nearly every eligible category for a fullback. During the running days of skydog, he nearly ran for 1000 yards and scored 7 TD's and is the second best rusher in Hawaii history. (Not that it says much but still). Fisher was a full time starter in his early days before turning into a role player at tackle for the Pacific. Nonetheless, all three are two time CFL bowl champs.

I have two - FB Werner Rockett, who's the only player left from the inaugural preference draft. The other is OLB Toby Sanders, who was signed as a free agent. He has played 158 games for Baltimore, 120 as a starter.

I have two: Jonathan Gray, punter extraordinaire, and Melvin Dowling, LB. Despite his longevity, Gray is my best player. :shock:

Erstwhile starter/current backup QB [player]Milan Hogan[/player] is an original Toro, as is longtime backup/current starter MLB [player]Josh Jarrard[/player]. And the man with the most awesome name in the league is also an original Toro - [player]Demetrius Higginbotham[/player].

Backup RB [player]Dale Farrar[/player], backup G [player]Kenneth Smalls[/player], WR [player]Gene Wold[/player], and DT [player]Harold Stoltzfus[/player] are also Toros from the original distribution draft (but not original Toros).

We still have 6 original Vampires, probably a major part of our run of success was my ability to keep core players together.

The 6 are:
CB [player]Chris Carleton[/player]
S [player]Michael Dustin[/player] (current league leader in career interceptions)
DT [player]James Haley[/player]
T [player]Larry Peters[/player]
ILB [player]Michael Thibeault[/player]
WR [player]Harold Infante[/player]

Except for Infante, all have been starters every single year in their tenure with the Vampires.

I have no idea without the game in front of me except his Jackpotness, [player]Lenny Olsen[/player], of course.

I'm thinking there can't be many more that are Rounder (Crawfish) originals but guys like C [player]Tony Baker[/player] and FB [player]Chris Wisdom[/player] should be old enough to be from the original draft.
