BOULDER — It started innocently enough. Some Colorado Athletic Department staffers discussing the upcoming NFL Draft, then drifting into the territory of all-time Buffs NFL Draft picks (266 total).
The question soon arose: If you were building an NFL team today, which Buff would be your first overall pick?
The possibilities are intriguing, to say the least. If you are concentrating on defense first, do you go with Alfred Williams? Or how about Charlie Johnson, Dick Anderson, Chad Brown, Greg Biekert, Herb Orvis, Joel Steed, Jimmy Smith or Michael Lewis?
The questions are the same on offense.
