By today’s standards, the way Y.A. Tittle arrived to the San Francisco 49ers was unique. The LSU Quarterback was the Sixth Overall Pick in 1948 when the Detroit Lions took him, but he opted to sign with the Baltimore Colts of the AAFC instead. Tittle did well, and the Colts were one of the teams that merged with the NFL when the AAFC merged with the NFL, but this first incarnation of the Colts was short-lived as the Colts folded after only one year in the NFL. All of the Colts were made eligible in the 1951 Draft, and San Francisco took tittle Third Overall.
Bryant Young was the Seventh Overall Pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 1994, and the All-American from Notre Dame won the starting Left Defensive Tackle job as a rookie.
Tyson Chandler was the Second Overall Pick in 2001 by the Los Angeles Clippers. The Clippers traded Chandler to Chicago for Elton Brand, and there was hope that the Bulls could build their team around the Center.
An NBA Champion with the Philadelphia 76ers in 1966, Weiss was traded from his third NBA team, Milwaukee, to the Chicago Bulls during the 1968-69 Season.
