"In 1962, Gabriel, who played at NC State from 1959-1961, was the No. 1 overall pick in the AFL Draft and the No. 2 overall pick in the NFL Draft. Instead of signing with the AFL's Raiders, Gabriel joined the NFL's Rams, a decision that paid major dividends for the franchise."

They had Deacon Jones and Merlin Olsen on Defense. Lost a couple of Championship games, though, which is prolly why he's not in the Hall.
RIP
