27......L.A. Mike Richardson......drafted out of Arizona State in the 2nd round in 1983......heres an fyi about Mike:

2008 Richardson faced a 13-year sentence for possession of meth and crack cocaine..... It was his 21st drug conviction since the end of his football career. Former teammate Richard Dent and coach Mike Ditka both supported Richardson being sent to a rehab facility rather than prison. The judge ultimately sentenced Richardson to a year in prison and an extended probation period, violation of which would result in Richardson serving the remainder of a 13-year sentence.

In late December 2020, Richardson was arrested for homicide in Phoenix, in relation to a suspected cocaine transaction gone awry.....

Damn,this is the first I ever heard of.....just saddening.

25 Todd Bell......drafted in the 4th round from Ohio State.
Todd was known for his toght tackling style,namely his biggest hit I can recall on Joe Washington that that knocked him out of game.....I believe it was the turning point of the 1984 wildcard game vs Washington in RFK....We were heavy underdogs with no McMahon who was out with a lacerated kidney......


The video does work......

It is quite shocking how often I am right around here. Not batting 100% but who else said Howard isn’t very good with the numbers he put up with the Bears? Time once again shows my genius. This board is so lucky to have me. There’s only one BsGenius and I AM.
