The controversy also included the fact that Robinson sprained his thumb arm wrestling after being named starter and kept it a secret and couldn't play...it may have been klecko that he lost to not 100% on that

Richard Todd had this silly little habit of throwing the football to the other team.

If only the Jets had used the picks a little more sensibly, instead the Jets sent their two first round picks (13th and 20th overall) to San Francisco for the second overall pick in the draft which they used to select Texas wide receiver Johnny "Lam" Jones. "
Even better than I thought.

At least they picked Darrol Ray in the 2nd who was good for a few yrs then seemed to disappear. Then they used the other 2nd on Ralph Clayton another WR who didn't do a thing, IIRC.

Not really.

Wasn't it Redskins QB Gus Ferrotte that head butted a wall and his career went to crap after that?

@BradBiggs: Emery acknowledges #Bears whittled down 3 finalists to 2 -- Trestman and Bruce Arians. Darrell Bevell was not in final decision.

Well, if it is Idzik, he's 3 hrs behind on west coast. Perhaps they want to call him in the morning to speak to him.

Right. Wouldn't want to wake up a guy you're paying millions to run your franchise.

Or his agents are based on the west coast and have spent the morning review and negotiating the contract
