3. Ken O’Brien. Ken had a fairly nice career, but led the NFL in times being sacked twice. He wasn’t noted for a quick release.

5. Phil Garner. In 68 post season at bats, Phil hit .309 with an OPS mark of .845.

8. Don Strock. Don may started only 20 games for the Dolphins, but won 14 of them. He also finished his career with the Browns, where he won his only two starts there.
