One of the more interesting classes :

2 37 Randall Cunningham Nevada-Las Vegas Philadelphia Eagles
3 57 Frank Reich Maryland Buffalo Bills
6 142 Steve Bono UCLA Minnesota Vikings
6 143 Rusty Hilger Oklahoma State Los Angeles Raiders
11 285 Doug Flutie Boston College Los Angeles Rams
11 294 Joe Shield Trinity (Conn.) Green Bay Packers
Sup Bernie Kosar Miami (Fla.) Cleveland Browns


Few QB's, yet a good yield of starters and backups (4 of whom have some degree of NFL fame) and not one 1st round talent coming out.
