One of the better Guards of the early days of football, Swede Youngstrom, was the stabilizing force behind the Buffalo All-American/Bisons teams that twice came within a game of the NFL Championship.  Twice a First Team All-Pro (1923 & 1924), the expert Lineman was one of the best at his side of the ball, and while it was not recorded officially, it is believed that he was one of the top punt blockers of his time.  Late in his career, he would help the Frankford Yellow Jackets win the NFL Championship in 1926.  He played one more year in the NFL, again with Frankford, where he served as their player-coach.

While playing college ball at TCU, Sherrill Headrick was not drafted by either the National Football League or the American Football League in 1960, when the American Football League was beginning operations.  Headrick was eventually signed by the Dallas Texans, where he was a First Team All-Pro in his first three seasons and a significant force on the Texans' 1962 AFL Championship team.

Headrick and the rest of the Texans relocated to Kansas City, and the now-named Chiefs remained an AFL power with Headrick a force in the defensive interior.  Headrick earned two more AFL All-Star selections (1965 & 1966), and in the latter year, he helped the Chiefs win the AFL Championship.  He would finish his career with a season with the Cincinnati Bengals in 1968.

Bobby Walston played his entire 12-year career (1951-62) with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he was one of the most versatile offensive weapons the team had.  The former Georgia Bulldog played wide receiver, Tight End, and Kicker, and excelled at all three.  A member of the 1960 NFL Championship Team, Walston would catch 311 passes for 5,363 yards and 46 Touchdowns.  With his leg, he would twice lead the NFL in Field Goal Percentage, and with his dual duty as a Receiver and Kicker, he would amass 881 career Points.  Walston would be chosen for the Pro Bowl in both 1960 and 1961, and probably should have been named to more.

A member of the prestigious Miami Dolphins Honor Roll, Bob Baumhower, played all nine of his NFL seasons with the team from Southern Florida.  A former star with the Alabama Crimson Tide, Baumhower was a five-time Pro Bowl Selection, and he was chosen for an All-Pro roster (one First Team and four Second Team) in all of those years.  Baumhower was a key figure on the Dolphins defense in the early '80s that was considered among the best in the league.  

In 1982, the Dolphins ranked first in Defense, and they would make it to Super Bowl XVII.  The following year was arguably his best, as that was his First Team All-Pro year, and Pro Football Weekly would name him their Defensive Player of the Year.
