With the 31st pick I select DT Merlin Olsen, LA Rams. A big run clogger that demanded double teams constantly. Was the anchor of the "Fearsome Four" and allowed players such as Deacon Jones (who was taken in the 2nd round) to fly off on the pass rush.

The pick is in... LB Derrick Thomas, KC Chiefs 9-time prowbowler and a sack machine with 7 double digit sack seasons
To plug in at my left linebacker spot... "Jack Ham remains the best outside linebacker I have ever seen. Because he was a quiet kind of guy who didn't like attention, no one pushed him as the greatest thing ever. But he was a dominant player who basically had no weaknesses." -Chuck Noll
To follow up with another former Steeler I'll take shutdown corner Mel Blount. One of the few still out there, he'll give me a guy to shut down one side of the field effectively. I think that if you take an single starter from those teams and you have one of the tip top at his position.
I'm pretty sure I'm up, right? I'll leave this year, I have my pick, but it doesn't seem like I should be picking yet..
