A 2^nd Round Pick from Clemson, Levon Kirkland became a starter in his second season in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers (1993).  Kirkland worked as an Inside Linebacker and would have seven seasons (six with Pittsburgh and one with Seattle), where he had over 100 Combined Tackles.  He would later go to the Pro Bowl in both 1996 and 1997 with a First Team All-Pro netted in the latter year as well as being named the NFL Alumni Linebacker of the Year.  He would also be named to the 1990s All-Decade Second Team.

Before the Washington Redskins had the famed “Hogs” Offensive Line of the 80s and 90s, they had a Georgian named Len Hauss, who was their starting Center from 1964 until he retired in 1977.

Rich Saul did not accomplish that much in the first half of his career, where he bounced around the Rams O-Line for the first five years, but there was definite value in the former Michigan State Spartan.  Saul would be named the starting Center in 1975, and from 1976 to 1981, he would be named to the Pro Bowl and was one clearly among the upper echelon of Centers for the last half of the 70s.  The Rams would go to Super Bowl XIV, and he was part of the reason they were successful during that time frame.

While Larry Morris never made a Pro Bowl, nor a First Team All-Pro, he was chosen for the 1960s All-Decade Team.  This is a testament to Morris’ consistency as he was highly regarded in his craft as an NFL Linebacker.  He would be a dependable presence in the Bears’ Defense that won the 1963 NFL Championship.
