ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Yes, Dan Marino shoulda, woulda, coulda been a Raider had the team used the No. 26 overall draft pick on the future Hall of Famer back in 1983, rather than selecting offensive lineman Don Mosebar.
And while Mosebar had a fine enough career for the Raiders -- three Pro Bowl appearances at center while not missing a game in the final five seasons of his 12-year career -- Marino obliterated records and went to the Hall of Fame for the Miami Dolphins. Plus, Marino's 68 touchdown passes in the first two years of his career are still the NFL's standard.
