I don't begrudge a player for being picked too high

Ken died in 2009 in the Chicago area and seemingly had a good life after his failed BB career. To show the hit and miss nature of the BB draft, that same year Tom Seaver was the 190th pick and Nolan Ryan was 399th.

Dan McGinn, backup QB and regular punter, was the 413th player picked. Ara designed a couple of punt fake plays for Dan (think he used them on his particular hate Pitt). Dan went on to have a relatively long career (Cincy if I remember) as a left-handed reliever.
