Both players were cut at the end of the season.

The guy you are thinking of went to BYU and I cannot remember his name either.

Shawn Knight Saints First Round Pick in 1987 #11 overall.

Defensive end Jason Buck and defensive tackle Shawn Knight were a pair of reasons behind BYU's success. Buck, the Outland Trophy winner in 1986, went to the Cincinnati Bengals with the No. 17 pick in the first round of the '87 draft, while Knight, a defensive tackle, went six picks earlier to the Saints.

Five seasons later, neither was on his original team. Buck left the Bengals for the Washington Redskins via Plan B free agency in 1991. Playing at defensive end in the Bengals' 3-4 defense, he enjoyed a pair of solid-but-unspectacular seasons in 1988 and 1989, posting 12 of his 19 career sacks during that span. But the rest of his years in the NFL were fairly quiet, and he was out of football by 1994.

More can be said for Buck than for Knight. He was shipped to the Denver Broncos for Ted Gregory in 1988 in an exchange of first-round disappointments. He was out of football following a 1989 cup of coffee with the Phoenix Cardinals, completing his NFL career without as much as a sack.
