Here's one. The Bucs actually managed to screw up not drafting this guy when they called someone else's name. But that player wasn't too bad. Then the Bucs swiftly traded a 1st round pick from the next season so they COULD take this player I'm talking about.


Who is it? Bonus if you know the other guy

From Illinois, and built like a rook
In the late rounds he later got took
He'd make big ol' holes
And made Superbowls

I once tracked down a twink pop star speeding through my neighborhood in a Prius only to get the Heisman'ed from his security.

You're going way back now.... I remember the story.. vaguely but neither name.
I'll give it the day and if no one answers, we can gather round the fire and listen to absolute peak Yucks. The only harder Yuck was drafting Bo Jackson anyway after saying he wouldn't play for us

"I might've been an Orange man, but I had a thing for that white stuff. Could've been a really great player but things just never got right, even after the indefinite. No matter though. I can say I got to talk to Steve Harvey & Oprah about my demons, blowing $2mil, and changing my life around"

I thought he was talking about the Sean Farrell/Booker Reece draft snafu. Of course I know about Bo Jackson.

Six-foot five, former fifth round draft pick
But on the Bucs I couldn't stick.
Yet in Arena League,
I never showed fatigue.
Tons of tuddies I caught, what a trick!

What's funny is I thought about him as a player who would be good trivia in this game. He's most memorable for Gruden having the biggest player crush on a non-QB than I can remember.

Zemitis? He was a DB though. Was it another receiver?

Huh? Ohio State guy, no? Don't recall him catching passes from Sexy Rexi.

Then again, you may just are being a fuckstick.
It is Galloway. He caught 1 pass from Grossman in 2010 when they both played for Washington.

A Tampa 2 prototype,
is what they would say.
Couldn't reach the hype,
didn't last to his third May.
A car wreck changed his life,
but persevered in spite of it.
If the third draft day is your peak,
then you might be him.

I could be wrong. I thought there was a PSU WR that was Mr. August / Ernest Graham level hype...
Are you thinking of Stovall? He was ND.

He’s from the Philly area. When he was drafted I met some dude that saw my Bucs hat and told me “Mo is a stud. He used to be my boy until my exgf blew him at a party I took her to.”
