FROM THE ELIAS SPORTS BUREAU: FROM...
Published: 12/24/2009

FROM BRADSHAW TO STAFFORD&.THE STREAK CONTINUES " Matthew Stafford was placed on the Lions' injured-reserve list on Thursday ending his season. Stafford, the first player chosen in the 2009 draft, had a 2-8 record as a starter for Detroit, preserving a streak that's spanned four decades. Since 1967, the first year of the common draft, no quarterback selected with the first overall pick has had a winning record as a starter during his rookie season. The streak began with Terry Bradshaw, who was taken with the first choice of the 1970 draft.

Crabtree Not Far Behind Heyward-Bey
Published: 10/7/2009

There were six wide receivers drafted in the first round in 2009. Obviously, Michael Crabtree is the last one to sign, but he's not too far behind Darrius Heyward-Bey -- the only WR selected before him -- in terms of total production.

BCS Championship Game Provides Few...
Published: 4/26/2009

Since the BCS era began, this is the least number of players selected in the NFL Draft (1999-present) from the two schools combined that played in the BCS National Championship game.
