The Bucs got a couple of first ballot HOFers in the same draft, so I was wondering what other teams did that.  Here's what I came up with.  

Green Bay Packers (1956) Drafted Bart Starr and Forrest Gregg

Chicago Bears (1965): Drafted Dick Butkus and Gale Sayers

Pittsburgh Steelers (1970) Drafted Terry Bradshaw and Mel Blount

Pittsburgh Steelers (1974): Drafted Lynn Swann and Jack Lambert

Best draft of all time.  They also drafted HOFs John Stallworth and Mike Webster.

Buffalo Bills (1983): Drafted Jim Kelly and Bruce Smith

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1995):  Drafted Warren Sapp and Derrick Brooks

Baltimore Ravens (1996):  Drafted Jonathan Ogden and Ray Lewis

 

So the Bucs were not the only team, but that's some good company!

Schwesinger and Ez are 2 guys i really want, we need a field general and a pass rusher. Both smart guys, Schwesinger is probably a top 40 pick though. Continually led the bruins in tackles every game.

I like his ability better than Jack campbell's 2 years ago. Campbell is a bit of lumberer but strides well and contains more stopping power but Schwesinger is smoother and has more fluid hips for todays NFL covering grass.

Our 2020 Draft has a shot with Wirfs and Winfield Jr.

grant it, AWJ cant have many more repeats of 2024 but still has a shot!

A bit early but look at the eagles drafts last few years. Especially first 4 rounds 

they nailed it.
