The Bird’s official Twitter account created a frenzy when they asked fans to build the ultimate roster.

We went with the NFL’s greatest pass rusher at defensive end, along with the space eater at the defensive tackle position.

We get quality linebacker play from Byron Evans, a lockdown cornerback in Darius Slay and Cheyney University’s greatest player in the late-great, Andre Waters.
