Eddie Mac selects Bill George LB Chicago Bears 1952-65, LA Rams 1966

Class of 1974

Linebacker >>> 6-2, 237

(Wake Forest)

William J. George. . .Bears' No. 2 future draft choice, 1951. . .One of first great middle linebackers. . .Called Bears' defensive signals eight years. . . Exceptionally astute strategist, on-the-field innovator. . .All-NFL eight years. . . Played in eight straight Pro Bowls, 1955-1962. . . Career record: 18 interceptions, 19 opponents' fumbles recovered. . .Born October 27, 1929, in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. . . Died September 30, 1982, at age of 52.

Bill George was the Chicago Bears’ second-round draft pick in 1951. He began his pro football career the following year as a middle guard in the then-standard five-man defensive front. Two years later, in a game against the Philadelphia Eagles, George made a now historic move that permanently changed defensive strategy in the National Football League.

On passing plays, George’s job was to bump the center and then drop back. George, noting the Eagles success at completing short passes just over his head, decided to skip the center bump and drop back immediately. Two plays later he caught the first of his 18 pro interceptions. While no one can swear which middle guard in a five-man line first dropped back to play middle linebacker and create the classic 4-3 defense, George is the most popular choice.

Certainly he was the first to star at the middle linebacker position. It was his ability to diagnose and react quickly that led the Bears to believe he could move that step or two backwards and become a super middle linebacker – a demanding position requiring sometimes pass rushing and sometimes pass defense, along with sure tackling, the speed to move from sideline to sideline, the agility to avoid blockers, and a keen sense of anticipation.

During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, the Bears were known for their outstanding defensive teams and George was a major part reason for their fame. A ferocious all-out player, he was named All-NFL choice eight times – seven consecutive seasons (1955-1961) and then an eighth in 1963 when he was the leader of the defensive that figured in the Bears 14-10 championship win over the New York Giants.

He was also selected to play in eight consecutive Pro Bowls, 1955-1962. In addition to his eighteen career interceptions, George also recovered nineteen fumbles, and in 1954 scored 25 points on thirteen PATs and four field goals.

There's my alternate kicker.

With the O-line and targets I've given him to work with, Warren Moon should be a very happy man. :)

Old Farts need a little beef to help out their undersized Center with big defensive linemen. OJ's roadgrader and leader of the "Electric Company"

Joe Delamielleure - Buffalo/Clevland 1973-1984

In the 1970s, Joe DeLamielleure and his Buffalo Bills offensive line mates were dubbed the “Electric Company,” because they “turned the Juice loose.” The “Juice” of course was Hall of Fame running back O.J. Simpson. An All-America and three-time All-Big Ten performer at Michigan State, “Joe D” as he was known, was selected in the first round of the 1973 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills.

At first, when he failed his physical, it seemed he would never play pro football. Fortunately, further tests showed his irregular heartbeat was not serious, and Joe went on to win All-Rookie honors. It was the beginning of a string of career honors that few guards had or have since exceeded.

He went on to become the most honored lineman of the Bills respected front wall. Eight times during his career he was selected first- or second-team All-Pro; seven times he was named first- or second-team All-AFC, and six times he was named to the Pro Bowl. Since 1970, only two Hall of Fame guards, John Hannah with 10 and Gene Upshaw with seven, were named All-Pro more often. In 1975, the NFL Players Association named him Offensive Lineman of the Year.

Extremely durable and dependable, Joe played in 185 consecutive games during his 13 playing seasons with the Bills and the Cleveland Browns. A starter from the first game of his rookie season, DeLamielleure played and started in every game for eight seasons in Buffalo before being traded to Cleveland in 1980.? During five years in Cleveland he played in every game and had only three non-starts.

Primarily due to the success of the Bills running attack led by Simpson, DeLamielleure was best known for his run blocking. Behind the swift pulling guard, O.J. became the first player to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a season. But Joe was more than just a run blocker, he was also an effective pass blocker and rarely allowed his opponent to disrupt Buffalo’s or Cleveland’s pass plays. DeLamielleure, who was named to the NFL’s 1970s All-Decade Team, finished his career in 1985 with a final season back where it had begun, in Buffalo.

Old Dude's pick is in:

Jimmy Johnson, CB, 49ers, 61-76

safety before moving to cornerback permanently, 1963. . . Blessed with outstanding speed, leaping ability. . .Named All-Pro four times. . .Selected to five Pro Bowls. . .Career record: 47 interceptions, 615 yards (both were 49ers records). . .Opposition passers avoided throwing in his area. . .Played in two NFC title games. . .Born March 31, 1938, in Dallas, Texas.

Jimmy Johnson, a 6-2, 187-pound two-way star from UCLA, was the first of three first-round draft choices of the San Francisco 49ers in 1961. The brother of former world decathlon champion Rafer Johnson, Jimmy played wingback on offense and as a defensive back at UCLA. He also was an outstanding track star, a 13.9-second high hurdler and a 25-foot broad jumper.

The 49ers tried Johnson as a defensive back as a rookie, moved him to the offensive unit in his second season and then back to the defensive unit to stay in his third season in 1963. Johnson, who was born March 31, 1938, in Dallas, Texas, intercepted five passes in his rookie season but also did well with 34 receptions for 627 yards and four touchdowns as an offensive receiver in 1962.

He played a year at safety in 1963 and then moved to the left cornerback spot for the remainder of his 16-season career, which was concluded after the 1976 season. He played in 213 games, more than any other 49er at the time of his retirement.

Recognized as one of the best man-to-man defenders in history, Johnson's reputation was so great that opposition quarterbacks threw only rarely into his defensive territory. Still, Johnson intercepted 47 passes and returned them 615 yards.

He had his big moments as a receiver as well, an 80-yard touchdown reception against the Chicago Bears and a 181-yard day vs. Detroit, both in 1962. Johnson was named All-Pro four straight years from 1969 through 1972. He played in three Pro Bowls and missed two others because of injuries.

The former college honor roll student won the Pro Football Writers' George Halas Award for courageous play in 1971 and twice was the winner of the coveted Len Eshmont award given by the 49ers for inspirational play.

03-10-2006, 11:01 AM

KillerIcon's pick is in.

Dave Casper, TE, Raiders, Oilers, Vikings 1974-1983

David John Casper. . .Raiders’ second-round draft pick, 1974. . . Nicknamed “The Ghost,” earned starting tight end spot in 1976, finished season with impressive 53 catches for 691 yards, 10 touchdowns. . . Named All-Pro and All-AFC four consecutive years, 1976-1979. . . Outstanding blocker as well as receiver. . . Career record: 378 receptions, 5,216 yards, 52 touchdowns. . . Named to five Pro Bowls. . .Born February 2, 1952 in Bemidji, Minnesota.

Tight end Dave Casper was an Honorable Mention All-America as an offensive tackle in 1972, and an All-America tight end in 1973 at Notre Dame. The Oakland Raiders selected him in the second round of the 1974 National Football League Draft.

Used primarily on special teams his first two years in Oakland, he earned a starter’s role in 1976 and quickly established himself as a dominant player, finishing the season with an impressive 53 catches for 691 yards and 10 touchdowns. His outstanding play invigorated the Raiders’ offense with a blend of pass catching and blocking that culminated in a 32-14 victory over the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl XI. Nicknamed “The Ghost” by his teammates, Casper was not only a great receiver and blocker, he was also a clutch performer.

Two of the game’s most memorable plays involved the sure-handed tight end. In the 1977 AFC playoff game between the Raiders and the Baltimore Colts, it was Casper’s 10-yard touchdown reception that ended the double-overtime affair, 37-31, in favor of the Raiders. “Ghost to the Post,” the game is called in reference to Casper’s 42-yard reception route that set up the tying field goal at the end of regulation.

Early the next season, Casper again pulled his team from certain defeat, on a play that would forever be remembered as “The Holy Roller.” Down six points to the San Diego Chargers with 10 seconds remaining in the game, Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler fumbled the ball. The ball rolled 13 yards to the Chargers 11, where running back Pete Banaszak batted it toward the goal line. At the 5, a quick thinking Casper continued the ball’s forward progress with his foot before finally falling on it in the end zone for the game-winning touchdown.

Casper played six and a half seasons with the Raiders. During that time he was named All-Pro and All-AFC four times and was selected to play in four Pro Bowls. Midway through the 1980 season he was traded to the Houston Oilers for a first-round and two second-round draft picks. There he was reunited with Stabler who was traded to the Oilers at the start of the season. Casper finished the season with 56 receptions and was named to his fifth Pro Bowl. In 1984, after a brief stint with the Minnesota Vikings, Casper returned to the Raiders finishing his career with 378 receptions for 5,216 yards and 52 touchdowns.

Richmond Jewel Webb (born January 11, 1967) was a offensive tackle in the NFL. He was the eighth overall pick by the Miami Dolphins in the 1990 NFL Draft. He played for the Dolphins for 11 seasons and set team records for 118 consecutive starts and seven consecutive Pro Bowls. After playing for the Dolphins, he went on two seasons to play for the Cincinnati Bengals. Injuries brought him down and he tried out for the Dolphins in 2003 but he wasn't signed and decided to retire in the fall of 2004. On July 9, 2005, Richmond Webb signed a one-day contract to retire as a member of the Miami Dolphins. [1]

03-11-2006, 12:03 PM

With selections in the 11th and 12th rounds, Those Cheap Bastards select:

Carl Eller, DE, Vikings, 1964-1979

Carl Lee Eller. . .Selected in 1st round of NFL draft by Minnesota and AFL draft by Buffalo, 1964. . .Quickly established himself at left defensive end on the Vikings' "Purple People Eaters" defensive line. . .Excellent at stopping run, devastating pass rusher. . .Amassed 44 sacks, 1975-1977. . .Named first- or second-team All-NFL each season, 1967-1973. . .Played in six Pro Bowls. . .Born January 25, 1942, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

In 1964, Carl Eller, a consensus All-America with the University of Minnesota, was a first-round draft pick of both the National Football League’s Minnesota Vikings and the Buffalo Bills of the then-rival American Football League. A 6-6, 247-pound defensive stalwart, Eller opted to stay in a familiar environment and signed with the Vikings. For the next 15 years through 1978, he was a fixture in one of pro footballs most effective defensive alignments. He finished his career with one final season with the Seattle Seahawks in 1979, having played in 225 regular season games.

During Eller’s career the Vikings enjoyed great success on the field. Starting in 1968, Eller’s fifth campaign, Minnesota won 10 NFL/NFC Central Division titles in the next 11 seasons. The Vikings won the 1969 NFL championship and NFC crowns in 1973, 1974, and 1976 and played in four Super Bowls.

A major factor in this long string of successes was a ferocious defensive line often referred to as “The Purple People Eaters.” Eller was the left end of a line that included Jim Marshall at the opposite end and Hall of Famer Alan Page and Gary Larsen at the tackles. Extremely quick and mobile for his size, Carl was an excellent defender against the run and superb as a pass rusher. In one three-string season from 1975 to 1977, he recorded 44 sacks, according to unofficial statistics (sacks did not become an official NFL statistic until 1982). He also was effective in blocking kicks and, during his career he recovered 23 opponents’ fumbles, the third best mark in NFL annals at the time of his retirement. It was Eller who caused the now infamous fumble that led to teammate Jim Marshall’s wrong-way run for a safety in 1964 in a game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Super-stardom was predicted for Eller from his first day in training camp following the 1964 College All-Star Game. He didn’t disappoint as he went on to become one of the most honored defensive players of his time. He became a regular his rookie season and was named first- or second-team All-Pro every year from 1967 through 1973. He was All-NFL or All-NFC 1968 through 1973 and then All-NFC again in 1975. In 1971, he won the George Halas Award as the NFL’s leading defensive player and was selected to play in six Pro Bowls (1969-1972, 1974, and 1975).

03-11-2006, 12:09 PM

And in the 12th round, I see no reason to break up one of the best QB-WR combos in history:

Charlie Joiner, WR, Chargers, 1969-1986

Charles Joiner, Jr. . .4th-round pick, 1969 draft. . .Played 18 seasons, 239 games, most ever for wide receiver at time of retirement. . .Career record: 750 catches, 12,146 yards, 65 TDs. . .Caught 586 passes as Charger. . . Key element in vaunted "Air Coryell" offense. . . Surpassed 50 catches seven years. . . 100-yard receiver 29 games. . .Intelligent, smart, calculating. . .Played in three Pro Bowls. . .Durable, missed one game last 13 years. . .Born October 14, 1947, in Many, Louisiana.

Charlie Joiner played pro football for 18 years, longer than any other wide receiver in history at the time of his retirement. When he retired at the age of 39 after the 1986 season with the San Diego Chargers, he ranked as the leading receiver of all-time with 750 catches.

Blessed with excellent speed and tantalizing moves, Joiner averaged 16.2 yards per catch and accounted for 12,146 yards and 65 touchdowns on his receptions. He ranked sixth in career reception yardage.

The Houston Oilers targeted Joiner for the defensive backfield when they picked the 5-11, 180-pounder from Grambling in the fourth round of the 1969 AFL-NFL Draft. Joiner played briefly on defense and the kickoff return team but soon became established as a premier pass catcher.

In his fourth season in 1972, Houston sent him to the Cincinnati Bengals in a four-player swap. Four years later in 1976, he was traded to San Diego. With the Chargers, Joiner blossomed into super-stardom. He and quarterback Dan Fouts formed a lethal pass-catch team that accounted for the preponderance of his 586 receptions as a Charger.

During his 11 years in San Diego, Joiner caught 50 or more passes seven times and had 70 or more receptions three seasons. Injuries cut into his playing time at the beginning but, in a 193-game span over his final 13 seasons, Joiner missed only one game. He was an All-NFL pick in 1980 and a Pro Bowl choice three times. In the 1980 AFC title game, he led the Chargers with six receptions for 130 yards and two touchdowns.

Joiner, who was born October 14, 1947, in Many, Louisiana, was once described by San Francisco 49ers coaching great Bill Walsh as “the most intelligent, the smartest, the most calculating receiver the game has ever known.”

Also, keep in mind that Joiner put these numbers up while sharing the ball with Winslow and Jefferson!

The Midwest Maulers select...

Jack "Assassin" Tatum, S, Raiders/Oilers, 1971-1980

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/e1/Tatum_8x10.jpg/200px-Tatum_8x10.jpg

Tatum was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the first round of the 1971 NFL Draft. He earned a reputation as a fierce competitor and hard hitter, and earned the nickname "Assassin." He was voted to three Pro Bowls (1973-1975) in his nine seasons with the Raiders.

In one of most lasting images from Super Bowl XI, Tatum knocked the helmet off Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Sammy White. His most famous hit came in a 1978 preseason game against the New England Patriots. Tatum hit Patriots wide receiver Darryl Stingley as he was leaping for a pass and left him paralyzed from the neck down. Tatum claims that he attempted to visit Stingley in the hopital soon after the hit but was forbidden by Stingley's family. The two have not spoken since that day. [1] Tatum has never apologized for the hit. "I don't think I did anything wrong that I need to apologize for. It was a clean hit."

Tatum finished his pro career with the Houston Oilers in 1980, when he recorded a career high 7 interceptions to finish with a career total of 37, which he returned for 736 yards. He also recovered 9 fumbles in his career, returning them for 164 yards. Tatum also holds the record for the longest fumble return in NFL history. In a 1972 game against the Green Bay Packers, he returned a fumble 104 yards for a touchdown.

Instead of having the gigantic update all the time where each team is listed with their picks how bout we leave it up to the team to do that. That way they can specify what positions they are putting players at and such. Plus it saves space.

FB Marion Motely
C Mel Hein
CB Red Grange
G Gene Upshaw
CB Jimmy Johnson
LB Tommy Nobis

(Nobis is the first non-HOFer I've picked, but he probably would have been if he'd played with anyone other than the Falcons.)

He had a brilliant college career at Texas, was the Falcons first pick as an expansion team, and led them in tackles virtually every year. He had a long career despite playing on banged up knees, was named to the pro bowl several times. Dan Reeves, who was a running back for the Cowboys back in those days, later said that Nobis was as good a football player as he had ever seen, but was constantly overlooked in awards voting because the Falcons never got much attention. Van Brocklin, who coached Atlanta back then, once said that, for all intents and purposes, Tommy Nobis was the Falcons.

Every team needs a great Left Tackle, so the Old Farts select the prototype for today's tall, smart, mobile left tackles - Bob St Clair. San Francisco 49rs 1953 - 1963 6'9" 263.

Bob St. Clair joined the San Francisco 49ers as a third-round draft selection in 1953. At 6-9 and 265 pounds, St. Clair's mere presence on the football field tended to intimidate many opponents.

He was blessed with size, speed, intelligence and a genuine love of hitting and, using these traits to the maximum; his on-the-field trademarks became hostility, power, and strength. He was an outstanding blocker, both on passing plays and rushing attempts.

Particularly early in his career, he was used on defense in goal line situations. He also excelled on the special teams. In 1956, he was credited with an amazing 10 blocked field goals.

Extremely popular with the fans and his teammates, St. Clair served as the 49ers’ team captain in 1957, 1958 and 1959. He was named first- or second-team All-NFL nine times and was selected to play in five Pro Bowls. St. Clair was tough and durable and often played in spite of severe injuries. But injuries eventually did cut short his career.

He was sidelined for a good part of the 1962 season with an Achilles tendon injury but he regained his All-Pro form in 1963. But a second Achilles tendon injury forced him to retire before the 1964 season.

Born in San Francisco, St. Clair decided to play college football at home at the University of San Francisco. When that school quit football after the 1951 season, he transferred to Tulsa, where he was an All-Missouri Valley Conference star. By joining the 49ers, St. Clair became the ninth member of the 1951 USF team to enter the pros.

His teammates nicknamed him "The Geek" because of several of his unusual lifestyle habits, such as eating all of his meat raw. He also became active in politics during his playing career and once served as the mayor of Daly City, California

I'm finally back. I haven't read this thread in 5 days. It's instantly gratifying reading dozens of new picks. Everybody's team is looking scary. I guess you can't go wrong in a draft like this.

The Duke's Dream Team
On offense, Elway is taking his snaps from reliable Otto Graham and throwing to Steve Largent and Mike Ditka. He's also happy to have Larry Allen up on the front lines. However, he's the most thrilled to have a running game that begins with Eric Dickerson.

My D-Line consists of Dan Hampton, Alan Page, and Chris Doleman. With that line, I can put Slap and Clockwork Orange at the corners and do just fine. Willie Lanier leads my linebackers and Larry Wilson is the "QB" of my defense.

Eddie Mac selects Tom Mack G St Louis Rams 1966-78

Although he played at the relatively obscure position of left guard on the offensive line, Tom Mack gained a lion’s share of attention during his 13 star-studded seasons with the Los Angeles Rams from 1966 through 1978.

He never missed a game during his 184-game tenure, a consecutive game streak third in Rams’ history behind only Jack Youngblood and Merlin Olsen. During the years that Mack played, the Rams enjoyed 12 winning seasons in 13 and compiled a .720 won-lost record (129-48-7). They won their division eight times and wound up in four NFC championship games.

The Los Angeles team was loaded with outstanding talent but Mack, as the youthful leader of an excellent offensive line, was one of the most honored of all Rams. The 6-3, 250-pound Mack earned the first of 11 Pro Bowl invitations after his second season in 1967. From that year through his final 1978 campaign, Tom missed earning a Pro Bowl spot only following the 1976 season. At the time of his retirement, his 11 Pro Bowl games ranked him in a third-place tie with Bob Lilly and Ken Houston among those with the most appearances in the post-season classic. Olsen ranked first with 14 Pro Bowl appearances and is followed by Jim Otto with 12. Mack was also all-pro or All-NFC nine times in a ten-year span from 1969 through 1978. As was the case with the Pro Bowl invitation, he missed All-NFC acclaim only in 1976.

An All-America at Michigan in 1965, Mack was the No. 1 pick of the Rams in the 1966 NFL Draft. Tom, who was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on November 1, 1943, was one of only two rookies to survive the entire season on George Allen’s veteran-dominated squad. Tom got a starting chance in the fifth game when starter Don Chuy was injured. Mack moved into the lineup the next three games, then relinquished the role briefly to Ted Karras before grabbing the starter’s job again. He remained the Rams’ starting left guard for the next 12 years.

Eddie Mac selects Willie Wood S Green Bay Packers 1960-71

Willie Wood is another of the talented athletes who teamed to give Green Bay pro football dominance in the 1960s. Yet the 5-10, 190-pound University of Southern California quarterback who specialized in running the ball, was not drafted by any National Football League team.

He had to seek a tryout and prove his worth before the Packers accepted him as a free agent in 1960. Within a short time, Willie was recognized as a premier free safety in the NFL. He became a starter in his sophomore 1961 season and held that job for more than a decade until his retirement following the 1971 campaign.

Wood, who was born in Washington, D. C., won first- or second-team All-NFL honors nine times in a nine-year stretch from 1962 through the 1970 season. A Pro Bowl participant eight times, 1963, 1965 through 1971, Wood also played in six NFL championship games. The Packers won all but the first one in 1960.

Willie also was the starting free safety for Green Bay in Super Bowl I against the Kansas City Chiefs and Super Bowl II against the Oakland Raiders. His 50-yard interception return of a Len Dawson pass early in the third quarter of Super Bowl I broke open a close contest and paved the way for the Packers’ 35-10 triumph over the Chiefs.

Like many Packers who had a chance to handle the football, Wood compiled impressive statistics with 48 career interceptions, which he returned for 699 yards and two touchdowns. He won the NFL interception title in 1962 with nine steals. Doubling on the punt return team, Willie also won the league punt return championship with a 16.1-yard average in 1961. In 12 years, he carried back 187 punts for 1,391 yards and two touchdowns.

Pick made at 2-05pm ET

Alex Karras DL Detroit Lions, Monday Night Football Color Analyst.

Name: Alex Karras
Position: DT
College: Iowa
Years a Lion: 1958-62, 1964-70

Drafted in the first round of the 1958 draft…Was collegiate wrestling champion as University of Iowa heavyweight…Was a master in technique of using hands and arms to fight his way past would be blockers into enemy backfields…Weighing 255 pounds and standing 6-2, Karras used his stocky build to bull rush offensive lines…Karras made the Pro Bowl a total of four times.

Time to address the offensive line again. The KnockYerDickintheDirts select Bob "Boomer" Brown OT 1964-1973.

http://www.profootballhof.com/assets/photo_gallery/Brown_Bob_Arm_2_5.jpg

The second overall pick in the 1964 Draft, Brown was a huge lineman for his day at 6'4", 290 pounds. He also played with a very pronounced mean streak. His philosophy was simple: “I beat on people from the opening kickoff. I want to see results in the fourth quarter. I don’t want them to have as much left. I want them to not be sure they want to keep coming. I try to take a toll on them.”

First-team All-NFL seven times. Earned NFL/NFC offensive lineman of the year three times. Named to the NFL's All-Decade team of the 1960s.

Killericon is on the clock at 7 PM CST. Ray Finkle, Bronc LB 52, and Toad are on deck.

In the meantime, here's an update on my team ...

Roosevelt Brown, Jr. . .1953-1965 New York Giants Black All-America at Morgan State, 1951-1952. . . Giants' 27th pick in 1953 draft. . .Joined Giants as green 20-year old. . . Quickly won starting role, held it for 13 seasons. . .Excellent downfield blocker, classic pass protector, fast, mobile. . .All-NFL eight straight years, 1956-1963. . .Played in nine Pro Bowl games. . .Named NFL's Lineman of Year, 1956

In the 1953 National Football League Draft, the New York Giants selected a 1952 Black All-America tackle from little-known Morgan State College in the 27th round. His name was Roosevelt Brown and his youth and relative inexperience were obvious when he joined the Giants for his first summer training camp.

Giants coach Steve Owen liked what he saw in Brown – his 6-3, 255-pound size, his powerful arms, his trim 29-inch waistline, his willingness to work hard and his ability to learn. So Rosey Brown, a true “sleeper pick” got his chance to make the Giants squad and he made it big. Soon he was the starting right offensive tackle and it was a job he held for 13 years until he retired following the 1965 season.

Rosey was a classic pass blocker and, on running plays, he could make the blocks that opened gaping holes in the enemy ranks. And he could do something few tackles are called upon to do – pull and lead on wide ground plays such as a pitchout to the halfback.

During the height of Rosey's career, the Giants were enjoying an unusual string of successes with six divisional crowns and one NFL title in an eight-year stretch. While no one player can be credited with the Giants' great victory ride, Rosey deserves as much credit as anyone. For eight straight years, he was a virtually unanimous All-NFL choice and was named to nine Pro Bowls. In the 1956 NFL Championship Game, Rosey handled the vaunted Chicago Bears' defenses so well that he awarded Lineman of the Game honors. In 1975, Rosey Brown became only the second player to be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame on the merits of his offensive line play alone.

Hanford Dixon of the Browns. Not sure exactly when he played but was one of the best corners of the 80's.

JCMElway

03-16-2006, 11:28 PM

Little did the Browns know when they drafted Hanford Dixon in the first round of the 1981 NFL Draft from Southern Mississippi, that Browns history would be changing forever.

Dixon is considered to be one of the original founders of the Dawg Pound in Cleveland Stadium in the 1980s. Dixon played the majority of his career with the Browns through the 1989 season before finishing his NFL career with the San Francisco 49ers.

One of the more popular players in Browns history, Dixon made his mark on the field, in addition to his legacy as a Dawg Pounder. From 1987-89, Dixon was named to the Pro Bowl. His 26 career interceptions rank eighth (tied with Felix Wright and Tommy James) on the all-time interception list in Browns history. Dixon also had three interceptions on Dec. 19, 1982 against the Pittsburgh Steelers to tie 10 other Browns for the team record.

Mr. Trout's time has expired. My selections are:

Jim Langer, C, Dolphins, 1970-81

Signed as free agent, 1970. . .Became starter, played every offensive down in perfect 1972 season, when he needed help on just three of 500 blocking assignments. . .Lauded for "professional, no frills" demeanor . . .Hard-working, quick, low-driving blocker. . .Rarely made mistake. . .All-Pro and All-AFC five straight years. . . Played in three AFC title games, three Super Bowls, six Pro Bowls. . . Born May 16, 1948, in Little Falls, Minnesota.

Jim Langer joined the Miami Dolphins as a free agent in 1970, stayed with the club for 10 years through the 1979 season and then wound up his career with the Minnesota Vikings in 1980 and 1981. In his decade with the Dolphins, Jim developed from an obscure substitute to one of the finest centers ever to play.

Langer was named All-Pro and All-AFC six straight years from 1973 to 1977 and was also picked for the Pro Bowl six straight times. During that period, he started in three AFC championship games and Super Bowls VI, VII and VIII.

Many qualified observers insist that Langer was the most proficient performer on a talent laden offensive line that fueled Miami's vaunted ball-control offense. Jim played middle linebacker at South Dakota State before being signed by the Cleveland Browns as a free agent early in 1970, but was cut during training camp. Jim then latched on with the Dolphins.

For two years, he saw only limited action as a guard and a special teams player. But In 1972, he switched to center, won the starting job and wound up playing every offensive down in Miami's perfect season.

Hard working and quick, Langer was a compact, low-driving blocker who had the strength to stymie the bigger defensive linemen. At first, Jim snapped only on T-formation scrimmage plays but, after long practice in his own backyard, he started snapping on punts and placekicks in 1974. Langer also proved to be durable.

Continuing to play in spite of injuries, Jim saw service in 141 consecutive games from 1972 until a knee injury ended his Miami tenure with seven games left in the 1979 season. Early in the 1980 campaign, he was traded to the Vikings, with whom he played two more seasons.

Now I have my long-snapper as well.

03-20-2006, 12:25 PM

And at the top of the 13th round Those Cheap Bastards have their first homer pick:

Tom Jackson, LB, Broncos, 1973-86

Then: Tom Jackson was the only player inducted into the Ring of Fame in 1992. "TJ" was always one of the most popular players among his teammates, who voted him most inspirational player six consecutive seasons (1981-86). He finished his career having played the most games in Broncos history at 191 and still ranks second on that list behind John Elway. He is also tied for third in games started at 177. Jackson is one of only three Broncos to wear the Denver uniform for 14 seasons, joining Dennis Smith (14) and John Elway (16). He made three consecutive Pro Bowl appearances from 1977-79 and was named first team All-Pro twice (1977-78). He was also named by his teammates as Denver’s defensive MVP in 1974, '76, and '77. Upon his retirement in 1986, Jackson was tied for first with fellow Ring of Famer Randy Gradishar for the most interceptions in Broncos history by a linebacker with 20, and was fifth on the all-time sack list with 44. Jackson was also a standout performer at Louisville, where he was the Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year twice -- as a sophomore in 1970 and as a senior in 1972.

Mr. Trout is on the clock and may make two selections. He has until 1:30 PM CST to make his picks

JCMElway

03-20-2006, 10:57 PM

Since a few others have, here's how my team is shaping up.

Offense
QB Fouts
RB Emmit Smith
WR Crazy Legs Hirsch
WR Joiner
OT Gregg
G Musso
C Langer

The offense is shaping up to be able to really gring the football down the field. Gregg, Musso, and Langer all excelled at run blocking, and Emmit can find the holes like none other.

The combination of Fouts and Joiner will continue to be prolific, and Hirsch gives Fouts a speedy target downfield. That will come in handy when defenses put 8 in the box to stop Emmit.

DE Eller
DE W Davis
SAM Bednarik
MIKE Butkus
WILL T Jackson
CB Night Train
S Jim Thorpe

The Defense has tall speedy ends that can really get up the field to pressure the QB and bat down passes. The LBs are really the strength of the D. The run will get funneled to Butkus, who will destroy everything. Bednarik dishes out punishment to TEs, RBs, and QBs. TJ is fast enough to play the weeak side and track down just about everybody. And the DBs are also enforcers. Night Train was the most physical to ever play the game. Thorpe has protypical Safety size, runs like a CB, and hits like a LB.

JCMElway

03-21-2006, 09:59 AM

Mr. Trout hasn't been online for a couple of days, so it's time to move on. Dipsomaniac, you are on the clock at 11:00 AM CST.

If Trout comes in he may make his picks at any time. I've also PMed 24ChampBailey to pick up these picks. If Trout comes back and does not like 24's picks, he may discard them and replace them with his own selections.

If Mr. Trout does not make it back for his picks in Round 14 and 15 his team will be awarded to 24ChampBailey.

We just have to keep this thing moving.

That is all.

TheDave is on the clock. Followed by Clockwork Orange and -slap-.

Old Dude

03-23-2006, 11:47 AM

It's my understanding that TheDave has been tied up with some personal matters for at least the last couple of days, and that this may continue for awhile. He did manage to visit the forum late yesterday evening. But I'd suggest that if he isn't around to make his pick tonight that someone should go ahead and make the pick. Hopefully he'll be back in the swing of things by the time the draft bounces back up.

So far, he has about 8 guys on offense, 4 on defense and a head coach. So he'd probably want to start looking at some defensive help. Most of his picks have also been players from the 80's & 90's.

JCMElway

03-23-2006, 07:44 PM

Fine, I'll try and rotate Dave's pick around until he gets back. TheDave selects:

Gary Fencik, S, Bears.

Fencik played twelve seasons with the Chicago Bears and is their all-time leader in interceptions and total tackles. He was the team's defensive captain through the 1980s including 1985–1986 Super Bowl championship season. He made two Pro Bowl appearances(1980, 1981).

Fenick finished his career with 38 interceptions, which he returned for 488 yards and a touchdown. He also recorded 2 sacks and recovered 14 fumbles, returning them for 65 yards.

03-23-2006, 10:19 PM

Now we're moving.

Old Farts select the guy I wish the Broncs could clone to add to their WR collection:

Harold Carmichael WR - Philly

Harold Carmichael played wide receiver in the NFL for 14 seasons, all but one of them with Philadelphia. He holds that franchise’s career records for games played, receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns and total touchdowns. He was selected to four Pro Bowls.

In 1973, his first year as a full-time starter, Carmichael led the league with 67 receptions, eight better than his closest competitor. He was even more dominant in the yardage category, as no player was within 200 yards of his total. Carmichael’s 1,116 receiving yards that season were the most by any receiver since the AFL/NFL merger in 1970. His mark wasn’t surpassed until five years later, when the regular-season schedule was expanded to 16 games in 1978.

Standing 6’8”, Carmicheal possessed the rare combination of tremendous size and game-breaking ability. He presented a match-up nightmare for opposing defenses, who often had to roll coverage his way and try to bracket him with a pair of much shorter defensive backs. More than twenty years after he last played, Carmichael remains the embodiment of what teams most covet in the passing game, particularly in the red zone. Consider that, of the best “big receivers” who have followed – Al Toon, Herman Moore, Terrell Owens, Randy Moss – none have been taller than 6’4”.

Carmichael was remarkably consistent and durable. Over a 12-year stretch between 1972 and 1983, he played in 162 straight games, an Eagles team mark that still stands. During that time, he also established an NFL record by catching a pass in 127 consecutive games. His average full season, from when he entered the lineup until the strike-shortened 1982 campaign, was 53 receptions, 818 yards and eight touchdowns…and five of those nine years there were just 14 games.

While we're waiting, here's something I thought I'd share with the rest of you. It certainly cracked me up. And if anyone is looking for a "specialist" in the later rounds, here's a guy to keep in mind.

Hardy Brown: Specialist

When it came to big hits, 49er linebacker Hardy Brown was the absolute master. Before a game in 1950, quarterback Y.A. Tittle, then pitching for the Baltimore Colts, was approached by a teammate, running back Rip Collins. "Whatever you do," said Collins, "don't throw the ball to me in Brown's territory." Tittle in his first NFL year had never heard of Brown and decided that Collins must be joking. Sure enough, in the course of the game, Y.A. tossed one to Collins while Rip was in the vicinity of Hardy Brown. The next time Tittle had occasion to speak to Collins was when he visited him in the hospital.

The next year, Tittle was shipped to San Francisco and spent six seasons as Brown's teammate where he could observe the linebacker's technique from the safety of the sideline. So taken was Tittle that in his memoirs, I Pass, he devoted a whole chapter to Brown.

Hardy had only fair speed and wasn't much for covering on passes. At 190 pounds, he couldn't plug holes in the line like the league's more muscular linebackers. In fact, Brown had only one really marketable skill -- he knocked people cold.

By Tittle's count, Hardy kayoed 21 opponents in 1951. As the teams played only twelve regular season games at that time, that's moving up on two a game. Of course, some days he might be feeling charitable and bag only a halfback, but when he was really on a roll he could get his full limit. One day, he knocked out the entire Washington Redskin starting backfield. They were all carried off on stretchers.

Brown's modus operandi in accomplishing his sandman act was devilishly simple and, to coin a phrase, perfectly legal. As the poor ball carrier would approach, Hardy would crouch low. Then, with exquisite timing, he'd launch himself forward and upward. He never wrapped his arms around his man to make a tackle; the shoulder did all the work. Bam! Without fail, the runner was propelled suddenly backward and off his feet, and when Brown's aim was really true his shoulder met not a chest but a chin. In which case, it was time to call for the stretchers.

"He'd always try to tackle high," Lou Groza, the Cleveland Browns' Hall-of-Famer, remembered. "What made it worse was the fact that there were no face masks then. When he had the chance to blind side you, he'd do it with relish."

Another ex-Brown added sourly: "He'd wait until somebody stopped a guy and then finish him off with the shoulder."

Speculation held that Brown's meanness stemmed from his boyhood as an orphan who never knew his parents. Others suggested it came from his experiences as a Marine paratrooper during World War II. Whatever, the source, he became a legend around the NFL. His lethal shoulder pads were regularly examined for foreign objects, like a rumored sheet of steel. They never found metal, but some said there were notches.

A whole coterie of sadists supposedly came to 49er games just to watch Brown do his thing. One day, he broke Giant halfback Joe Scott's jaw and the whole Giant squad went for him. Reports vary. Some hold that Hardy retreated immediately. Others swear he left three more Giants in his wake.

The Rams were said to have put together a pool to "get" Hardy. After the game they had to give everyone his money back. The only time Brown was ever hurt, according to Tittle, was when he slammed into a Detroit runner so hard the guy bounced off the ground and caught Hardy under the chin with his cleats, requiring six stitches. "But he was back in action in a few minutes," Tittle insists.

After Brown left football in 1960, he dropped out of sight completely, only adding to his legend. "I wouldn't be surprised to hear he was murdered," says one former associate.

Eddie Mac selects Yale Lary DB/P Detroit Lions 52-53, 56-64

Robert Yale Lary, Jr. . .Major contributor to three Lions championships. . . 11-year fixture at right safety, exceptional punter, long-distance threat on kick returns. . .Lifetime marks show 50 interceptions, 44.3-yard punting average, three NFL punting crowns, three TDs on punt returns. . .All-NFL five years. . .In nine Pro Bowls. . .Third-round pick, 1952. . . Career interrupted by army service. . .Born November 24, 1930, in Fort Worth, Texas.

Detroit Lions fans recall Yale Lary in many different ways. Some remember him as a superb right safety, a key cog in Detroit's fearsome defensive platoon in the 1950s and 1960s. Others will tell you he was one of history's truly great punters. Still others say it was his breakaway ability on punt returns that set him apart from all the rest.

In reality, each assessment is correct because the multi-talented Texas A&M product did all of those things superbly well during his 11 years with the Lions. There is no question that Yale's defensive play was exceptional. A fixture at right safety throughout his career, he was named to the All-NFL team five times and played in nine Pro Bowls. His career mark showed 50 interceptions and he might well have had many more had not opposition quarterbacks avoided throwing in his area.

Still those who remember Lary as a superb punter have plenty of reason to do so. His career average of 44.3 yards on 503 punts places him among the best ever. He won three NFL punting titles and missed a fourth by a razor-thin margin. "Kicking from the end zone, Yale invariably put the ball across midfield with enough hang time to let us cover the kick," team captain and Hall of Fame linebacker Joe Schmidt recalled. "He made our defense look good because he always gave us room to work."

While Lary's outstanding exploits might be remembered in different ways, all who saw him play undoubtedly would agree that he was a rare find, the kind that comes along only once in a generation. Comparatively small at 5-11 and 185 pounds but armed with a big heart and great ability, he did much to make the Lions a championship team.

Big Guy selects:

Jim Taylor - Packers 1958-1966

When Vince Lombardi took over the Green Bay coaching reins in 1959, fullback Jim Taylor became the Packers' bread-and-butter guy. Lombardi depended upon him to get the needed short yardage whether it was for a first down or a touchdown.

As the Packers’ dynasty grew, so too did Taylor become the symbol of power in the awesome Green Bay attack. Jim was a throwback to an earlier era, who ran with a fierceness no one could match. He caught the short swing passes and blocked with rugged determination.

Thousand-yard seasons became a specialty for Taylor. He went over 1,000 yards five straight seasons beginning in 1960 but reached his zenith in 1962, when he had a career-high 1,474 yards and was named the NFL Player of the Year.

Jim was living testimony to the popular football adage "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." Nowhere was this more evident than in the 1962 NFL title game. Playing on a bitter-cold day, Taylor engaged in a personal duel with the New York Giants' outstanding defense, led by All-Pro linebacker Sam Huff. Jim carried 31 times for 85 yards and scored Green Bay's only touchdown in a 16-7 victory. He took a fearful pounding both from the hard-hitting Giants and the frozen ground. He suffered an elbow gash that took seven stitches to close at halftime and a badly cut tongue. At the end, he could scarcely see and he couldn't talk

Phibacka is selecting for Thedave, not Mr. Trout. I PMed Trout and told him he may throw out the selections that were made for him, and then replace them with his own selections.

If PhiBacka does not select by 4 CST, anyone may make his selection for him. Old Dude, you gonna be around?

Finkle has PMed me his choice as well.

I should be around. (That's about 2 and a half hours from now.) I've already given it some thought, and I think Neil Smith would make a nice addition to TheDave's team - - he's mostly focussed on the late 80's and 90's, and he needs a 2d DE to team up with Bruce Smith. Neil made several pro bowls, broke the 100 sack barrier and, of course, helped the Broncos win 2 super bowls. Seems like a reasonable pick to me...

Old Dude

03-29-2006, 01:41 PM

Does anyone know when/if theDave might come back to the draft?

If not, Dipso had a very good idea about dissolving his team and distributing those players to the existing teams. If Phibacka can't get in on a regular basis to make the picks, I think this idea has some merit.

Thoughts?

Maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds to me like Mr. Trout would like to get back full ownership of his team. Maybe 24champbailey would be willing to take over TheDave's team as his own?

I'm not crazy about the idea of just dumping all of TheDave's picks back into the pool, or otherwise redistributing them, because there is probably a significant difference between the 1st-3rd rounders and the 11-14th.

Someone gets Bruce Smith, while someone gets Fencik?
Someone gets Marino while another guy gets Sterling Sharpe or Michael Irvin?

Just doesn't seem very balanced.

Old Dude

03-29-2006, 03:09 PM

Okay, time has expired. So since I'm next in line, I'll assign Neil Smith to TheDave's team, whoever is running it now.

That gives him Smith & Smith at the defensive ends. Cool, huh?

Old Dude

03-29-2006, 03:14 PM

Old Dude's pick will be ...

Len Ford, DE, 1948-58, Dons (AAFC), Browns & Packers.

Len Ford, 6’4” 245, started his career as a two-way end with the L.A. Dons of the AAFC in 1948. He was a superb receiver, known for leaping one-handed grabs, and after only two years in the league, he was already making a mark in the young AAFC record books. But it was his speed on defense, and his pass rushing abilities, that gained the attention of an opposing AAFC coach -- Paul Brown.

When the AAFC folded after the 1949 season, three teams were absorbed into the NFL: the Colts, 49ers and Browns. The rights to players of defunct teams, such as the Dons, were put into a draft pool, and Paul Brown, who had seen plenty of Len Ford on game film, snatched up this young African-American as quickly as possible.

Ford arrived at the Browns camp in 1950, and quickly became the most dominant figure on a defense that was already deep in talent. But in mid-October, Ford suffered a devastating injury to his face. Whether it was a cheap shot or a legitimate blow was the source of debate for years to follow. Ford was thought to be lost for the season as he underwent facial reconstruction and plastic surgery. To everyone’s surprise, Ford returned, with a specially designed cage to protect his face, just in time for the NFL Championship game. His furious pressure on the Rams’ QB was a major factor in the Browns winning their first NFL title.

The Browns are known for their potent offense of the 1950’s, but the defense was just as big a factor in their success. The Browns had the stingiest defense in the NFL six times in the seven-year stretch from 1951-1957 (and second best in the "off" year), and Ford was simply the best player on it. In fact, to take full advantage of Ford’s fearsome pass-rushing abilities, Paul Brown shifted around the standard formation to get Ford closer to the action, with 4 men up front, and three “linebackers” spread out behind them. Thus, Len Ford’s skill as a pass-rusher was a major element in the evolution of the modern 4-3 defense.

Here is an excerpt from a Lions scouting report on Ford:

"LEN FORD -- Really blows in. Does a lot of jumping over blockers. Does not predetermine this -- if he sees a fellow going very low to block, he will jump over. Plays inside very tough. Must be blocked or he will kill the passer.”

Ford enjoyed one of his finest days against the Lions in the l954 NFL championship game. As a defensive end, he not only pressured the QB, but also intercepted two Detroit passes, returning one of them 45 yards as the Browns buried the Lions 56-10.

Altogether, Ford would play in five NFL title games, of which the Browns won three.

He was always opportunistic. When he retired after the 1958 season (which he played for a dismal Green Bay club), Ford owned the NFL record for opponents' fumbles recovered with 20.

Don Smith writes, “About the only argument you would ever hear was whether Ford or Gino Marchetti, the Baltimore Colts' super-ace, was the finest defensive end in the business.”

Ford became the first Cleveland Brown to be inducted into Canton.

Mr. Trout has full ownership of his team. He never lost it. We just made selections because he wasn't here. 24 champbailey filled in for a few picks here and there, but is not an owner of any team.

Once again, if Trout does not like who was drafted for him while he was gone he may drop those players and select his own.

Hopefully Phibacka can come in for theDave's next pick. If not anyone is welcome to make picks for that team and we will try and keep this thing moving.

Thanks everyone for having patience and hanging in there. If we can complete 41 rounds we will have great fodder for conversation and specualtion.
