  Drayton Sawyer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Played by Jim Siedow, Drayton Sawyer is the eldest brother of the Sawyer clan which consisted of Leatherface, Chop Top and Edward Sawyer in the first two Texas Chainsaw Massacre films.
Drayton adopts a folksy persona while in public but in reality is a severely unstable person who berates his brothers non-stop, rants at great length about money and the plight of the small businessman, and occasionally brings people "home for dinner".
Whereas once he could be considered the most "normal" of the family and was slightly troubled by the murders his brothers committed, switching between telling them to get it over with quickly and cheering them on, in the second film he fully supported them and was a full-bore lunatic.

Meanwhile Drayton Sawyer (Jim Siedow making a welcome return) hears Stretch playing the boys' screaming encounter over the radio repeatedly and when he rages to himself about "them darn fools" (Scooby Doo-like), we know something BAD is going to happen.
And it does; Sawyer (furious at their escapades in the pick-up the night before) dispatches his crazy sons Leatherface and Chop Top to the radio station in an effort to silence Stretch and keep her off the air for good.
But Leatherface is rather taken with with the tasty DJ and (in a memorable sequence) lets her go, leaving her to follow them back to their huge subterranean hide-out at a disused amusement park.

 Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The backdrop of the Sawyer family was loosely based on the serial killer Edward Gein.
Papa Sawyer gleefully prods at Sally with a broken broom handle as if she were one of the cows down at the slaughterhouse (The movie states that Pop works at the slaughterhouse along with his sons, as well as working at the gas station.)
When the characters stop at the gas station they ask Sawyer if he knows where the Franklin house is. Now, the house in question had obviously not been lived in for many many years, so it strikes me odd that anyone would recognize it by the name Franklin House.

Further reports have verified that Leatherface and his family members (Drayton Sawyer (father), Hitchiker (brother, presumed dead), ChopTop (brother, Vietnam Vet) do practice cannibalism and did in fact use human meat as an ingredient in their world class chili during their running of the now defunct, Last Roundup Rolling Grill Catering.
His real name is unknown, but fanon has unofficially suggested Robert Sawyer.
In the original film, Leatherface is never seen without one of his human-flesh masks on, the reason being either disfigurement or psychological issues.

 DVD Talk Review: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
But what made the original film so terrifying was not how crazy the Sawyer family was, but how normal they thought they were.
In one of the original film's most classic moments, Jim Siedow's Drayton Sawyer returns to the house to find the front door chainsawed to ribbons by Leatherface, and screams at his hitchhiking brother, "Look what your brother did to the door!
That moment says more about the dysfunction of the Sawyer family, and the façade of normalcy they live by, than any other moment in the five films that followed.

 Edward Copeland on Film: Like death eating a cracker
In another of the film's funniest sequences, Lefty goes chainsaw shopping to prepare for battle, purchasing a large main one and two smaller pair which he attaches to his belt like a pair of six shooters (though firearms would really be more efficient, but it would deprive us of a chainsaw joust).
The news comes soon after oldest brother and family leader Drayton Sawyer (Jim Siedow) has achieved yet another victory at a chili contest for his cannibalistic catering business.
Unfortunately for the Sawyers, Leatherface gets distracted from his mission at the radio station when he encounters Stretch and does something you don't often see in nonspeaking maniacal chainsaw killers -- he falls in love.

 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
For what feels like hours, all that happens is the Sawyers run around in circles, waving their arms and hollering incoherent abuse at each other while Stretch sits tied up in a chair and shrieks, “Please, God, let me go!” over and over again.
Even when Lefty finally shows up, there is no mercy for the audience, for Drayton and Paul continue their hollering and arm-waving over top of the racket generated by the dueling saws.
Bill Johnson’s Leatherface (as befits the new “Bubba Sawyer” moniker) is a pathetic, bumbling buffoon, light-years removed from Gunnar Hansen’s honestly frightening interpretation of the character, but no amount of clowning on his part can disguise the fact that this is a vile, ghastly scene being played out.

However, the sadistic Sawyer family continued their reign of terror over the next decade.
Two punk high school teens on their way to the big Texas/OU football game decide to call in to the local radio station to pretty much harass the female DJ — Stretch (Caroline Williams).
And, while Jim Siedow (Drayton Sawyer), the apparent leader of the operation, is the only actor that reprises his role, newcomers Bill Moseley (“Chop-Top”) and Bill Johnson (Leatherface) fill the shoes left by their predecessors wonderfully.

That means enlisting the help of Detective Lefty Enright (Dennis Hopper), who is the uncle of previous survivor Sally Hardesty.
Enright is at first unwilling to work with Stretch, but a series of confrontations finds the two within the clutches of Leatherface (Bill Johnston), as well as Drayton Sawyer (Jim Siedow), the mastermind of the cannibalism operation and who now markets human-flesh chili for profitable gain.
The resolution finds Stretch fleeing another of Sawyer's sons (Bill Moseley), who pursues her through a maze of delapidating underground theme-park until a final, cataclysmic showdown with all parties involved.
