NFL QUESTION

[gethman]

Just had a question on UK TV.........

Who is the only linebacker to be a NFL 1st round draft choice???

:shrug:

 

[RexBudler]

Many linebackers have been chosen in the 1st round. Do you mean the overall # 1 draftpick ?

 

[gethman]

Sorry yeah......I should have made it clearer.

 

[RexBudler]

Actually I think there have been more than 1. I know Aundrey Bruce from Auburn was 1 in the late 80's and I think TX or Okl had someone in the 60's

If you google the question, there have been 3.

Not sure on names tho

 

[Trentwalker]

Here you go...

Three linebackers have been drafted No. 1 overall in the draft. They are Aundry Bruce (Atlanta, 1988), Tom Cousineau (Buffalo, 1979) and Tommy Nobis (Atlanta, 1966).

 

[oldschoolcapper]

definitely Aundray Bruce from Auburn by the Falcons. 1988.
