tennesseeboy Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 I'll go with Bobby Burnett who was the AFL rookie of the year at running back in 1966. He was really outstanding before his injury. from wikipedia... A halfback from the University of Arkansas, in 1966, his first year with the American Football League's Buffalo Bills, Burnett had a combined total of 1,185 yards rushing and receiving, with over 12 yards per catch and 4 touchdowns on 34 receptions.[1] He had 766 yards on 187 rushes, with 4 rushing touchdowns. He was that year's AFL Rookie of the Year, and was also selected to the 1966 AFL All-Star team.[2][1]
Max997 Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Sam Cowart looked like he was going to be an outstanding LB for a long time before that cheap shot he took in Tampa after getting a few sacks in the first half of a game there....never the same player Edited June 6, 2011 by Max997
