Gilchrist was signed to (what had to be an illegal) contract by the Cleveland Browns to a contract when he was still in high school.  The Browns reneged, and he would forego college to play in an amateur league in Canada before he was old enough to play in the Canadian Football League.  He played there for five years, winning a Grey Cup with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and in 1961 he would finally play pro in the United States when he traveled around Lake Ontario to play for the Buffalo Bills of the American Football League.

David Bakhtiari played 11 seasons with the Green Bay Packers where the former Colorado Buffalo has proven himself to be one of the best Tackles in the NFL.

Matt Judon played the first five seasons of his career with the Baltimore Ravens with the last two years being his best with the team.

Still with the Baltimore Ravens as of this writing, Jimmy Smith arrived to Baltimore as a late 1^st Round Pick from the University of Colorado and would officially become the starting Right Cornerback in 2013 after having a good Super Bowl XLVII performance in Baltimore’s win over the San Francisco 49ers.  Smith has done a solid job for Baltimore and to date has recorded 14 Interceptions for the team, though lately has been coming off in reserve.
