Thanks. 660631[/snapback] The only guy that I remember with the nickname of Radar, was Robert "Radar" Holt. He was a WR not a CB ... he was with us in the early 80's. HERE is some information on him. He went to Baylor and was our 6th round draft pick in 1981

Isn't that the same draft where Bills got "FWB" (fastest white boy) WR Mike Moseley?

The 1981 Buffalo Bills Draft: 1 Booker Moore Penn State RB 2 Chris Williams Louisiana State DB 2 Byron Franklin Auburn WR 3 Mike Mosley Texas A&M WR 3 Robert Geathers South Carolina State DT 5 Calvin Clark Purdue DE 6 Robert Holt Baylor WR 7 Steve Doolittle Colorado State LB 9 Rob Riddick Millersville (PA) RB 10 Justin Cross Western Colorado T 11 Buster Barnett Jackson State TE 12 Keith Clark Memphis State LB
Astrobot Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 We could call it the Doolittle Draft, because it doolittle to help us.
BillsFanInTexas Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 IIRC, Byron Franklin was traded straight up for Pete Metzelaars, who was a big part of the offense in the late 80s-early 90s. Riddick made a little contribution for the Bills - if nothing else, he made the Bills draft TT.

I remember many "4th & Riddick" plays - his stadium nickname He could fly ! Hey, we were grasping at straws back then

Riddick was a good backup RB. He was especially good in short yardage where he had the ability to leap over the line of scrimage and get the needed yardage. His career was cut short by injury or he would have backed up TT longer.
