Buffalo Bills that were Nebraska Cornhuskers


Recommended Posts

For reasons that aren’t important, I’m looking for a short list of former or current Buffalo Bills players that attended (played football for) University of Nebraska — Lincoln. 

 

My list begins and ends with R Incognito. I’m hoping the community, especially the guys that have been around a long time, can help me expand it.

 

Thanks!

You can go through this link and find them. In 1974 the Bills drafted LBs Rudd and Nelson in the first two rounds.

The draft doesn't get you free agents or trades or other means for a Husker to play for the BIlls.

 

Gotta DIG to find a Vince Ferragamo!!!

 

this is a the best list of Huskers, but you'll have to do the leg work, and i have found players with game experience that do not have mention on this site...

Yes, exactly. Richie Incognito wouldn’t be included in the draft links as you mention, just like Ferragamo.

 

Appreciate the link @row_33

LaVerne Torczan.

Ron McDole

 

Did McDole replace Torczan at DE in 63? 

 

These are just the types of gems I was looking for, thanks @K-9.

 

FWIW re:McDole — https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2010/5/11/1466953/top-50-all-time-bills-no-29-de-ron

 

It says his 12 interceptions are the most by a DL in NFL history?

McDole was on the roster, but I'm not sure he got a lot of playing time in '63 and I was only 4 at the time. I got Torczan's name from a program handed out to the statisticians in the press box (my dad kept the rushing stats).
