I'm surprised that Jackie Smith wasn't drafted at TE.

[TanksAndSpartans]

Thanks Bryan. I like seeing the results this way. Can you check WR? I think its out of order.

WR are out of order because Lofton, Mitchell and Bruce were given the vague "WC" position designation...not really sure why Lofton and Bruce earned that moniker. Some of the other alleged multi-position players are out of order as well...Stautner, Van Buren, Nomellini, Bednarik, others.
