Thanks Bob - that helps a lot. I'm currently reading a 2018 Gus Dorais bio and it got me thinking about early QBs again plus all the Brady discussions. I've seen Graham mentioned a few times in those, but not so much Baugh or Friedman and certainly not Mahrt or Dorais.

He played and started three games at right guard for the Canton Rogers Jewelers in 1930.

Wow, that's amazing. Thanks Tod. Do you know if Frank also played for any 2nd tier team after '26 or did he really retire at 37? A bit young for a Nesser :)
