Bills made AFL history twice starting all rookie backfields; 1969 and 1968 with Dan Darraugh, Ben Gregory, and Mini Max Anderson.

Nice call. And then we started a rookie Dennis Shaw at QB in 1970 as well.

He won Rookie of the Year I think and then disappeared.

Got OJ and Ben Gregory autograph when they came over to the GM Parts Division on Walden Ave. The Juice was getting a blue 69 Corvette.

Ben Gregory was a awesome FB, big and fast, until a 1969 knee injury ended his career, Putting him with OJ in a backfield would have been interesting,. Then in 1971 we had, OJ, Jimmy Braxton (best blocking back in Bills history), JD Hill, Marlin Briscoe, Heaven Moses, and Bobby Chandler as wide receivers and still sucked at offense.

Saw him at a Cheektowaga Central HS football game back in the early 70s when he was playing for the Bills. Got his autograph back then.

Hey Wacka, my swim coach at Central was a good friend of his. Earthquake came to one of our meets. So are you a Central Alumnus?

Yeah, his wife taught with my father while he was a Bill.
