Holmgrem

As former Packers coach Mike Holmgrem is in his last year as head man with the Seahwaks here's a did you know about him.... He was drafted in the 8th round of the 1970 draft by the St. Louis Cardinals. That same round the Cardinals drafted Tom Banks an Aurburn center who became an all pro (1975-1978) and the Rams selected Michigan State line backer Rich Saul was was a Pro Bowler from 1976 to 1981.

Terry Bradshaw was the first overall pick while the Packers at # 2 selected Mike McCoy DT of Notre Dame who never made the Pro Bowl. The Packerrs selected LB Jim Carter in the 3rd round the Minnesota Golden Gopher made the Pro Bowl in 1973.
