And there's a case to be made. This is no longer true. Several teams have now crossed that mark. Ray Lewis and Jon Ogden were the same draft. Ty Law and Curtis Martin. Bruce Smith and Andre Reed. If you go back far enough I'm pretty sure there were a few combos in the 50s as well. Pre-SB era, so maybe we don't count that, but still. I think the Browns got 2 or 3 the year they took Jim Brown. Jurgensen and McDonald joined Philly together as well. Though Jurgensen obviously made it more because of his time in Washington. KC got Bobby Bell and Buck Buchanan the same year. That one I know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnarok Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Yes. He and Kuechly should go in for the current era. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungBucs15 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I think that 2012 draft has 3 of the best LB's playing right now. Wagner, Keuchly, and David David doesn't get the national recognition because he has played on bad teams his whole career but stats wise: Leads all 3 in Solo Tackles, Sacks, and Forced Fumbles as well as 2nd in INT's. I think if David was putting up these stats on a winning team, it would be a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkippyX Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I am not a Seahawks fan but I have a ton of respect for Wagner. He has played like a HoF LB so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mse326 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 2 hours ago, SkippyX said: 1996 - Jonathan Ogden and Ray Lewis both in the same round. 1965 - Butkus and Sayers with back to back picks The 1974 Steelers had 4 in the same draft (as mentioned) and the Browns in 1957 draft three (Jim Brown, Henry Jordan, and Gene Hickerson [he was a futures selection]). The Steelers one is impressive in itself, but it is even more stunning when you look at the run they had 1969- Joe Greene 1970- Bradshaw and Blount 1971- Jack Ham 1972- Franco Harris 1973- None 1974- Swann, Lambert, Stallworth, Webster That is a HoFer chosen in in 5 of 6 drafts for a total of 9 in total. That is just stupid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
