The 1983 NFL Draft is famously known as the ‘Draft of the Quarterback’ for good reason. Hall of Famers like John Elway, Dan Marino, and Jim Kelly all were snatched up that year. Crazily enough, three non-quarterbacks hall members were also selected in Eric Dickerson, Bruce Matthews and Darrell Green. What was lost in all the hype around this draft was the fact that the New York Giants added several key players whom would end up contributing to the foundations of their 1986 and 1990 Super Bowl teams.
