235. Russ Letlow

1936 was the first year of the NFL Draft, and with the 7th Overall Pick, the Green Bay Packers chose Russ Letlow out of the University of San Francisco.  Historically speaking, this gives him the honor of being the first choice of the most storied teams in the National Football League.  Letlow would be a two-time Pro Bowler and a two-time NFL Champion with the Packers, the only team he ever played for professionally.  Multiple publications would name Letlow an All-Pro every year from 1937 to 1940, and he was chosen for the 1930's All-Decade Team.

182. Charley Brock

Charley Brock played all of his nine of his NFL seasons (1939-47) with the Green Bay Packers after having a phenomenal career at the University of Nebraska.  Brock was usually at Center but was also used as a Halfback and Fullback, and on the defensive side of the ball, he had 20 Interceptions.  Brock helped Green Bay win the 1939 and 1944 NFL Championship and was a three-time Pro Bowl Selection.

93. Dick Anderson

In the early 1970s, the Miami Dolphins were one of the best teams ever, and they were loaded with talent, but one of their stars, Dick Anderson, seems to have been forgotten.  Let's try to rectify that.

306. Willie Galimore

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.
