A 5^th Round pick from Oregon State, Vic Sears would play his entire National Football League career with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Sears joined the team in 1941 and was one of the few players to stay stateside during World War II.  He was a workhorse at Tackle on both sides of the ball and helped bring Philadelphia two NFL Championships in the late '40s.  Sears was named by the Associated Press, a two-time Second Team All-Pro, and also earned a spot on the 1940s All-Decade Team.

Duane Putnam was a 6^th Round Pick by the Los Angeles Rams from  Pacific University in 1952, and by '54, he would establish himself as one of the premier Guards in the NFL. 

From 1954 to 1958, Putnam was a perennial Pro Bowler, and he would either be a First or Second Team All-Pro Selection in each of those years.  Putnam's immense physical strength made it easy for him to create holes and protect his Quarterback, and he is easily one of the most unsung heroes in Rams' history.  The Dallas Cowboys selected him in the 1960 Expansion Draft; he spent one year there, then spent a year with the Cleveland Browns before concluding his career back home as a Ram for one last season in the National Football League.

Clem Daniels was signed as an undrafted player (by both the NFL and AFL) by the Dallas Texans, but playing behind Abner Haynes in 1960 meant that you weren't going to see much playing time if you were a Halfback.  Daniels was traded to the Oakland Raiders, where he worked his way into the starting rotation, and from 1962 to 1966, he would finish in the top three in All-Purpose Yards.  Daniels went on a four-year streak of AFL All-Star Selections in 1963, and that year The Sporting News would name Daniels their version of the MVP as he was the league leader in Rushing Yards, Yards From Scrimmage and Yards per Reception.  Later in his career, although he was beaten up, he would help Oakland win the 1967 AFL Championship.  

When his career was said and done, he retired with 9,771 All-Purpose Yards, a very good number for the 1960s.

Len Younce would miss 1942 and 1945 (as many would then), but the 1941 pick from Oregon State would be one of the most versatile players, even for an era when that skill was widely coveted.  Younce excelled as a Guard, Linebacker, and punter and was an unsung hero for the Giants, incredibly versatile even in an age when that was expected.  He was rewarded with a selection to the 1940s All-Decade Team.
