Considered to be one of the last great finds before the modern era of scouting, Willie Galimore was a 5th Round Draft Pick in 1957 from Florida A&M. Galimore was one of the quickest players in college, and that was the case when he went pro with the Chicago Bears. Galimore would play seven seasons in the NFL, all with Chicago, and he would accumulate 4,186 Yards from Scrimmage, with three seasons seeing him finish in the top ten in Rushing Yards. He would assist the Bears in winning the 1963 NFL Championship, which unfortunately would be the last game he ever played.
