gold star for USAHOF

120. Bucko Kilroy

A beast at Temple University, Francis Joseph "Bucko" Kilroy may not have been drafted, but his hometown Philadelphia Eagles knew there was something special there, and he made the team; albeit in a combined effort, as in 1943 the Eagles merged with the Pittsburgh Steelers due to the depletion of talent due to World War II. 

Kilroy would play his entire career with the Eagles, and the bruising Lineman was considered one of the toughest players in the league.  He helped Philadelphia win the 1948 and 1949 NFL Championships and made three Pro Bowls in the 1950s. He would later be named to the 1940's All-Decade Team.

Kilroy would later become a very successful scout and administrator, and if the Pro Football Hall of Fame combined on-field and post-playing career (they don't), the case can be made that Kilroy should have been inducted decades ago.

39. Eddie Jones

A popular player and a stealing machine, Eddie Jones was a very good Shooting Guard who strung together solid seasons in the late 90’s for the Los Angeles Lakers and Charlotte Hornets. Jones was just adept at steals, but was also a dangerous threat from behind the arc. He would three times be named to the Second Team Defensive squad along with three All-Star Games. We are sure many who were fans of Eddie Jones are chanting “Eddie” in their mind right now.
